Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been forced to make a lot of changes recently following a staff exodus, with the Duchess of Sussex reportedly struggling to find a CEO.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have recently lost their chief of staff, Josh Kettler, after he worked for the couple for just three months. Josh’s resignation earlier this month brought the total number of staff walkouts to 18.
It’s also been reported Meghan is struggling to find a CEO for her American Riviera Orchard business. Amid the staffing chaos, media expert Michael Levine told The Mirror US Harry and Meghan need to address “internal issues” to create a more supportive workplace.
He explained: “Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have faced challenges retaining staff at their Archewell charitable foundation, with reports citing Meghan’s behavior as a significant factor. Recent departures, including that of chief of staff Josh Kettler, highlight a broader trend of high turnover within their team.
“Since the couple began their journey together, a surprising number of 18 staff members have reportedly resigned.” Levine pointed to a number of challenges the Sussexes seem to be facing.
He told us: “Observers suggest that Meghan’s management style and expectations may contribute to a challenging working environment, leading to a revolving door of employees. Despite their philanthropic goals, maintaining a consistent and dedicated staff has proven difficult for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
“The repeated staff changes could reflect internal issues that need to be addressed to foster a more stable and supportive workplace culture at Archewell.” His comments come after a source described the staff exodus as “unprecedented”.
“The brutal reality is Harry and Meghan are the toughest of taskmasters, they’re very demanding and difficult to work for and that puts a lot of people’s backs up,” the source told The Sun. One former staff member also said no one they knew would “take the job again if given the chance.”
Speaking to the Daily Mail, they added: “These aren’t employees they had just found off the streets. Many of them are people who had previously excelled working for demanding bosses.”
