Staff Describe Difficulties Working With Meghan Markle, Sparks Public Discussion

Since leaving royal life in 2020, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have remained under intense scrutiny, with fresh reports reviving long-running claims about workplace tension around their team. A recent account cites former staff who describe a demanding, high-pressure environment, repeated changes in direction, and unusually high turnover, with some insiders reviving the unflattering “Duchess Difficult” label and casting Harry as largely hands-off during conflicts. Meghan has denied the allegations, calling them a smear and arguing that assertiveness is being mischaracterized, while supporters point to gendered bias. Critics counter that the consistency of complaints across years and roles suggests deeper leadership issues—keeping the debate alive at a moment when the couple’s public brand centers on compassion and mental health.
