Claims over Meghan’s attitude have been blasted as ‘total nonsense’ by Archewell sources.
Allegations about Meghan Markle’s attitude to her staff have been labelled “fabrications” by Archewell insiders, GB News can exclusively reveal.
A damning report published by The Hollywood Reporter had labelled Meghan “Duchess Difficult” and alleged “everyone’s terrified” of her as scathing claims about working conditions under the Sussexes came to light.
The outlet had included source quotes saying the duchess “marches around like a dictator in high heels, fuming and barking orders” – while in the past, Meghan herself has called comments on her so-called “bullying behaviour” a “calculated smear campaign”.
But now, GBNews.com has unearthed fresh details which look to have put the claims to bed in a new twist in the staffing saga.

GB News has been handed an absolute denial of the allegations – as well as Meghan’s message to her employees – and has confirmed with several current staffers that the “Duchess Difficult” moniker has never been used.
One Archewell source, who asked not to be named, said: “These quotes were fabricated by someone lacking knowledge of our company.
“The duke and duchess work from Montecito, and we’re based in Hollywood.
“They likely think we’re all in the same office and that this quote would fly, but the circumstances don’t even allow for it.

The Duchess of Sussex had also been targeted by claims that she had filed “angry” 5am emails to employees.
In response, another source said: “Who hasn’t sent an email when they can’t sleep or are awake early?
“I’ve never once ever gotten an email from either of them at that hour – and even if I did, the duchess specifically notes in her email signature that everyone has a different working day, and to not feel obligated to respond outside of normal business hours.

“These source quotes don’t make any sense!”
In another condemnation of the claims, GB News understands that Meghan’s email signature contains the phrase: “My working day may not be your working day. Please do not feel obliged to reply to this email outside your normal working hours.”
The rebuttals from insiders follow further criticism of The Hollywood Reporter’s article from a friend of the Sussexes.
They told the Mail that “the reporting is ill-informed and very one-sided”.
