Meghan Markle’s Former Staffer Says They Would Never Work For Her Again ‘If Given the Chance’
Meghan Markle’s time in the royal family was short-lived, but the Duchess of Sussex certainly made headlines. Many people admired Meghan for her ambitious attitude and successful career, but stories about the duchess swirled to the point where people started to question her personality. And while in the royal family, complaints surfaced that Meghan was harsh to her staffers — there were even bullying accusations. Now, one former staffer has come forward and revealed something very “telling” about working for the duchess.
Meghan Markle’s former staffer says employees would never work for her again
It’s hard to know exactly what went on behind the scenes at Harry and Meghan’s office during their time in the royal family. Some accusations have surfaced that Meghan was a bit of a demanding boss, but that could also be blamed on the differences in work-life balance between the United States, where Meghan was born and raised, and the United Kingdom.
Recently, though a former staffer revealed what they felt was “telling” about employees who worked for the Duchess of Sussex. “What may be most telling is that the entire time I worked there, I don’t think I heard a single current or former employee on their staff say they would take the job again if given the chance,” a previous staffer told Daily Mail, according to The Independent.
The staffer added that the employees that were hired to work for Meghan were ones with strong experience. “These aren’t employees they had just found off the streets,” they said. “Many of them are people who had previously excelled working for demanding bosses in high-performance companies and environments.”
Ultimately, Meghan’s royal office dissolved when she and Harry stepped down, but ever since, her former employees have been slowly speaking out about their experiences.
Meghan Markle recently claimed she had more to share about her royal experience
When Meghan and Harry left the family, they spoke more openly about their experiences as royals. Harry came out with a memoir, the couple sat down with Oprah, and they even collaborated on a Netflix documentary. But recently, Meghan suggested that she still has more to tell.
While speaking with Jane Pauley of CBS Sunday Morning, Meghan revealed that she had hardly “scraped the surface” of what she went through as a royal. The statement suggested that Meghan could eventually talk more about what happened to her, though it seems that there are two sides to every story. Harry did not comment when Meghan made that reveal. As of now, it’s hard to say what Meghan’s current staff members feel toward the duchess, but it’s possible people who work for her today are more used to her work ethic.
