Recent allegations against Meghan Markle suggesting she runs her workplace like a “dictator in high heels” have been strongly refuted by current and former employees of the Archewell Foundation. Despite persistent efforts to paint her as “Duchess Difficult,” those who have worked closely with Meghan and Prince Harry have come forward to dismiss these claims as baseless and misleading.
The Truth Behind the Allegations
The controversy resurfaced after the recent Vanity Fair and the past The Hollywood Reporter published an article on September 12, quoting an unnamed source who alleged that staff feared Meghan’s leadership style. However, several of Meghan’s former and current employees have now spoken out to Us Weekly, providing a completely different account—one that paints Meghan as a dedicated, compassionate, and hardworking leader.
Maer Roshan, co-editor-in-chief of The Hollywood Reporter, attempted to reinforce the allegations in a recent interview, insisting the claims came from a high-ranking staffer. However, these accusations lack credibility, especially in light of the statements from individuals who have firsthand experience working with Meghan.
Staff Members Speak Out
Contrary to the narrative pushed by some media outlets, multiple staff members have praised Meghan’s leadership and work ethic:
- Josh Kettler, hired as Chief of Staff earlier this year, stated that he was “warmly welcomed” by the couple and found them to be “dedicated and hardworking.”
- Ben Browning, who served as their Head of Content, described his experience as “positive and supportive” and dismissed any claims suggesting otherwise.
- Catherine St-Laurent, an early Chief of Staff at Archewell, affirmed that she remains close to the couple and described her time working with them as “incredibly meaningful.”
- Mandana Dayani, former President and COO of Archewell, recalled how Meghan was a generous and thoughtful leader, highlighting warm moments shared with the team, including preparing meals for staff and creating a welcoming environment.
- Ashley Hansen, Meghan and Harry’s Global Press Secretary, shared how Meghan showed deep personal concern for her well-being, especially during her recovery from surgery. Meghan went as far as to check in with her husband daily to ensure they had the support they needed.
Media Misinformation and Persistent Smear Campaigns
The resurfacing of these accusations appears to be another attempt to push a misleading narrative about Meghan Markle. The British press has long attempted to undermine her reputation, and certain American media outlets seem eager to continue that pattern. The fact that her staff—those who have actually worked with her—have spoken up so openly in her defense speaks volumes about the falseness of these claims.
Additionally, The Hollywood Reporter’s insistence on backing these allegations, despite credible counter-statements from multiple sources, raises concerns about media integrity and the continued effort to distort the truth. Many of these accusations rely on anonymous sources rather than verified testimonies, making it clear that they serve more as sensational headlines than factual journalism.
Conclusion: The Reality Behind Meghan’s Leadership
Rather than being a “difficult” boss, the accounts from Meghan’s staff highlight her kindness, work ethic, and genuine care for the people she works with. The attempts to tarnish her reputation through unfounded accusations are part of a broader pattern of misinformation that Meghan has faced for years. However, as more employees step forward to defend her, it becomes increasingly clear that these claims lack any factual basis. Meghan Markle remains a strong, compassionate leader who inspires those around her—despite the relentless efforts of certain media outlets to suggest otherwise.
