Controversial royal reporter Omid Scobie has unveiled his first-ever novel on social media - but the title appears backwards thanks to an inverted video camera. Co-written with US young adult fiction author Robin Benway, Royal Spin tells the story of a young American woman called Lauren Morgan, who ditches her press role at the White House for one at Buckingham Palace. Royal Spin is Omid's first venture into fiction - with the love triangle tale featuring a 'very handsome Duke' who gets a 'PR makeover' as Lauren's first project. The book is published by Sphere Fiction following a 'hotly contested' auction that resulted in a lucrative six-figure sum. Royal Spin is due to be published on February 11 in the UK.
