Accusations Against Meghan Markle Could Mean Something Dangerous for the Duchess, Expert Says: ‘None of Which Is Good’

Meghan Markle didn’t have the best experience within the royal family. The Duchess of Sussex married Prince Harry back in 2018, and since then, she has been fighting for her reputation. Once she and Harry tied the knot, rumors leaked that there were tensions between the Sussex and the Wales couples (Prince William and Kate Middleton). Harry and Meghan essentially admitted to tensions during their 2019 tour of Southern Africa.

Now, Meghan is once again in the spotlight for her actions, and the duchess is having a hard time fending off the haters. But one PR expert says the recent attacks on her could be a dangerous situation for her reputation.

In mid-September, The Hollywood Reporter published an article loaded with accusations and negative comments around Meghan’s attitude toward her employees. One source called her a “dictator in heels,” and another said former members of Meghan’s team called themselves the “Sussex Survivors Club.” The bombshell claims were a huge blow to the reputation Meghan has worked hard to rebuild in recent years.

One PR expert says that no matter what the truth is, it doesn’t paint a “good” picture for the former working royal. “These are current allegations,” PR expert Eric Schiffer told Newsweek. “What it says is that she’s either painfully deluded about her own behavior, or there’s a series of people who are choosing to lie to reporters.”

Schiffer described the situation as, “None of which is good for Meghan when she is still recovering from the reputational damage from across the pond.”
