Exclusive: What It’s Really Like to Work for Meghan Markle: Staffers Reveal Truth Behind Rumors …See More

Hours after The Hollywood Reporter published a piece alleging Meghan Markle’s “terrible” behavior is the cause of the high turnover rate at the company she runs with her husband, Prince Harry, a current employee posted a note on Instagram passionately debunking the report.

The September 12 article, which claimed that those who work for Meghan are “terrified” of her, included quotes from a source calling her a “dictator in high heels” who “belittles” people and has reduced “grown men to tears.”

The staffer said the allegations made in the article are wildly inaccurate and damaging to both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and members of their team. Current and former staffers quickly flooded the comments with statements of support.

“Best bosses I have ever had,” one current team member wrote, while an ex-staffer added that their time with the Sussexes was “truly an honor.”

The Duchess of Sussex has long been dogged by reports she promotes a toxic workplace environment. Back in 2021, days before the couple sat down for an in-depth CBS News interview to share their story, The Times of London reported the former actress had allegedly bullied and reduced staff members to tears at Kensington Palace.

In August, NewsNation claimed Meghan and Harry had lost 18 employees between their time in the U.K. and the U.S. (they launched Archewell Foundation in 2020), with a source blaming an “unbearable” and “condescending” Meghan for the “churn and burn” rate.
