Meghan Markle is facing accusations again. In 2021, the Duchess of Sussex was already under fire for scandal. Two former Buckingham Palace aides accused her of not only intimidating them, but also forcing them to resign. They are now members of the “Sussex Survivors Club”, an eloquent name found by Harry and Meghan’s former employees that says a lot about the working conditions with the Duchess.
If Archie and Lilibet’s mother had denied these accusations and denounced a “calculated smear campaign”, too late. Her reputation was already seriously tarnished. And it risks continuing to be. Three years later, the Hollywood Reporter has conducted an investigation that reveals the very borderline attitudes of “the difficult duchess”. The newspaper interviewed former employees of the Sussex couple, several of whom left the ship after their nerves gave way.
Meghan’s violent and tyrannical attitude highlighted by several members of the “Sussex Survivors Club”
This is the case of John Kettler. The man held the prestigious position of chief of staff to Prince Harry and his wife. But he left this position after only three months of working for the couple. And he is far from being the only one! Samantha Cohen, Markle’s main assistant and private secretary, Christine Weil Schirmer, former director of communications for Pinterest for Harry and Meghan in 2021, Catherine St-Laurent, who led the Sussexes’ charity for a year, and many other employees have all left their positions in recent years.
According to a source close to the couple quoted by Hollywood Reporter, the truth is that “everyone is afraid of Meghan” because the attitude of the former Suits actress is simply tyrannical and violent.

Meghan Markle source reveals: ‘She’s just awful’
The same source described Meghan’s selfishness and Harry’s passivity as making things extremely difficult to manage. “She puts people down, she doesn’t take advice. They’re both bad decision-makers, they change their minds a lot. Harry is a very, very charming, unpretentious person, but he’s very complacent. And she’s just awful.”
Clearly, Meghan takes her role as leader (too) to heart. And her power has apparently gone to her head. “She walks like a dictator in high heels, furious and barking orders. I’ve seen her reduce grown men to tears.” another source said. How will the Duchess, who has just launched her lifestyle brand, defend herself against these new accusations?
