Meghan Markle reportedly believes that she has been given the nickname “duchess difficult” by none other than insiders from the palace. The Duchess of Sussex also allegedly thinks that they have been running a smear campaign against her. Per Rob Shuter’s #ShuterScoop, a “source” told the news outlet that “She’s convinced they’re trying to destroy her all over again.”
According to the news outlet, the nickname, “duchess difficult”, first came to the forefront back in 2021 due to bullying allegations. The name has now made a return in the middle of the news regarding staff members quitting her U.S. team. Per recent reports, 25 staffers have left since 2020. In the meantime, six staff members have reportedly quit in just four months.
A former aide said to the news outlet that Meghan Markle “was demanding.” The person continued, “People were afraid to open emails.” However, the Duchess of Sussex’s team reportedly emphasizes that it is a smear campaign. The person described the situation as “Same playbook, different year.” The “source” also said, “And she knows exactly who’s pulling the strings.”
Recently, Meghan Markle turned 44 on August 4. Her lifestyle brand, As Ever, marked the special occasion by sharing a heartwarming post on Instagram on the day. It displayed a black and white photo of the Duchess of Sussex showcasing her gorgeous smile. The post’s caption read, “Celebrating the woman behind it all.” It continued, “She pours her heart, vision & magic touch into every detail, and today, we raise a glass to her!” “Happy birthday to our founder,” it concluded.
