Meghan Markle has been accused of quietly cutting ties with journalist Omid Scobie in Los Angeles this year, with insiders claiming the Duchess of Sussex ended the relationship once he was no longer 'useful' to her media strategy. The allegation, centred on Scobie's long‑standing reputation as Meghan and Prince Harry's most vocal defender in the press, comes from unnamed sources quoted on Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice Substack.
Scobie spent years positioned as one of the Sussexes' most sympathetic chroniclers. He co‑authored Finding Freedom, the 2020 biography widely viewed as the unofficial guide to Harry and Meghan's departure from royal life, and he consistently framed the couple in a favourable light as they clashed with the Palace and British tabloids. Both sides denied a close friendship, but Scobie was frequently described as 'Team Sussex,' a label his reporting did little to dispel.
