Kate Middleton defended by royal photographer over 'cold and vacant' Omid Scobie claims

Kate Middleton has come under fire in Omid Scobie's new bombshell book about the Royal Family as she's been accused of being "cold and vacant".However, these claims about the Princess of Wales have been slammed by royal photographer Arthur Edwards who argued that Kate "just gives everything to it and she’s absolutely a joy to photograph".Edwards, who was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) for "outstanding service to newspapers" in 2012, defended the future Queen amid allegations of the 'part time' Princess being unpleasant in the juicy new memoir Endgame.Scobie's new biography, which is his second book about the Royals, details an alleged power rift between King Charles and Prince William along with many other shocking claims, the Mirror reports.The Finding Freedom author also explores the monarch's relationship with his disgraced brother Prince Andrew and makes several claims about Prince William's attitude towards his brother Prince Harry.Scobie, who denies being a close pal of Meghan Markle, is often described as the "unofficial mouthpiece" for the Duchess of Sussex.In his new literary offering, he paints an unflattering picture of the Princess of Wales as a royal who works "part time" and has earned herself the nickname "Katie Keen" because the palace press office hides her reportedly lower workload by saying she is "keen to learn".The royal author also branded the future Queen as "cold" and claims that despite being an advocate for better mental health, Kate "ignored Meghan Markle's cries for help" amid a mental health struggle and had "no interest in being friends with her sister-in-law".
