Although no longer senior members of the British royal family, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry still have influence on the public. During this time, in addition to giving an exclusive interview to media queen Oprah Whinfrey, the couple also received “brickbats” from public opinion.
The news that Meghan Markle scared her former assistant has become “bait” for anti-fans to react. Specifically, according to The Times, Jason Knauf, who used to work as a communications secretary for her and Prince Harry, has complained to the HR department about Meghan’s treatment of staff since October 2018.
Another former employee also shared: “I felt so scared. I couldn’t stop shaking.” Many former employees also accused not only Jason but also other assistants of being treated badly by Meghan Markle. And that was also the reason why they quit their jobs. Faced with these accusations, Meghan Markle’s anti-fans had another reason to comment and argue.
Meghan Markle hires lawyer to intervene in the case of former employee accusing her of mistreating her.
Instead of speaking out, Meghan Markle’s side has hired their own lawyers to step in. Meghan Markle’s lawyers claim that The Times is being used by the palace to “publish a completely false story based on harmful and misleading information” about Meghan’s treatment of former staff.
Buckingham Palace immediately responded, with senior royal officials insisting that the complaints from Meghan’s former staff were not orchestrated by the palace or royal family members.
“This is absolutely untrue. We are not selling anything. Why would we? There are more important things going on in the world (regarding the pandemic and Prince Philip’s hospitalization) that require our attention than this circus around a TV interview,” a representative said.
Currently, the relationship between Harry and Meghan Markle and the British royal family is becoming tense. Many conflicts occurred after the announcement that Prince Harry is no longer a senior member of the royal family. Recently, Meghan Markle is said to be telling the TV audience all the dark corners of the royal family. This information has sparked many controversial arguments.
