Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has been accused of leaving a member of her staff in tears during a foreign trip with Prince Harry, shedding light on tensions within their household.
Royal correspondent Rebecca English from the Daily Mail reported witnessing Meghan’s outburst, describing how the Duchess “turned and hissed” at a member of her entourage while expressing apparent rage and demanding an immediate departure from the scene.
English later observed the distressed staffer sitting in an official car, visibly upset with tears streaming down her face.
The incident reportedly occurred during Meghan and Prince Harry’s visit to Fiji, when Meghan was in the early stages of pregnancy with their son, Archie.
Allegedly, Meghan’s frustration stemmed from the presence of a group from UN Women at an event, despite her supposed directive that they not attend.
Video footage circulated on social media captures Meghan whispering to an aide before abruptly leaving the market, although Meghan’s legal team denies any connection between her departure and UN Women’s presence.
Witnesses present at the event noted the challenging conditions, citing the hot and humid environment, which might have contributed to Meghan’s decision to leave swiftly.
Rebecca English also highlighted claims from within Meghan and Harry’s staff, dubbing themselves the ‘Sussex Survivors Club’, with reports of stress and even post-traumatic stress disorder among former employees.
This includes Melissa Touabti, Meghan’s former personal assistant, who played a crucial role in organizing the couple’s wedding but resigned shortly afterward.
The incident has sparked reactions from Meghan’s supporters and critics, prompting discussions about workplace dynamics and the treatment of staff within high-profile environments.
Meghan’s actions continue to be scrutinized amid ongoing debates about her role and conduct as a member of the royal family.
As the controversy unfolds, the public awaits further responses from Meghan Markle and Prince Harry regarding these allegations, underscoring broader concerns about accountability and management within royal households.
