Prince Harry Draws Attention Away From Meghan Markle to Soften the ‘Toxic Boss’ Backlash, Claims Royal Expert

Published 10/03/2024, 1:26 AM EDT

Ever since The Hollywood Reporter published a piece portraying Meghan Markle as a difficult boss, a storm has been unleashed on the Duchess of Sussex. It is also being said now that her toxic behavior is the root cause behind the high turnover rate at the Archewell Foundation. Even some royal insiders have now begun sharing their own long-winded stories of how challenging it was to work under the Duchess during their time with the royals. Nonetheless, it seems Prince Harry has now come up with the ultimate damage control.

The Duke of Sussex is allegedly turning all the media focus onto himself to deal with the situation, as per a royal expert.

Royal author Nathan Kay recently detailed Prince Harry’s alleged plan to shield Meghan Markle from the ongoing backlash. Speaking to Express UK, as per Geo TV, Mr. Kay explained how Prince Harry is working hard to change the conversation around his own image. "The message is being reinforced: Harry, alone, is still a prince of the people," said the royal author. According to the expert, the Sussexes are tapping into the global goodwill towards Prince Harry to eventually turn the public opinion in Meghan Markle’s favor.

Kay also suggested that Meghan Markle stepping aside for now, whether she likes it or not, could actually benefit the couple and their brand in the long run. Prince Harry was recently seen attending the Clinton Global Summit in 2024 and also made a rare TV appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in the host's new haunted maze. But even amid their PR crisis, they have kept their focus on parenting.
