Prince Harry would have been “hurt” by allegations against his wife Meghan Markle regarding her attitude and behaviour towards staff, a royal expert has claimed.
The Hollywood Reporter, one of America’s prestigious entertainment news sources, recently published a scathing report labelling the Duchess of Sussex “Duchess Difficult” and claiming that her staff are allegedly “terrified” of her and her “belittling” behaviour towards them.
However Mandana Dayani, former Archwell COO has spoken out about the “profound injustice” and described the Duke and Duchess of Sussex as “kind, decent, caring people”.
Speaking on The Royals – with Roya and Kate podcast, royal editor Kate Mansey said that the story would have “hurt” both Harry and Meghan, especially at a time when Harry has enjoyed a “good week” in New York.
She said: “We’re going to see him in London at the Well Child awards on Monday. This is his thing, and the idea that this is coming up again which essentially they will see as a kind of old story that they had hoped to have put to bed.

“All the allegations coming back painting Meghan as this sort of demon and also she’s busy building her secret project, she’s busy building her lifestyle brand, her American Riviera Orchard, there’s going to be a big TV show with Netflix next year.
“So they won’t be wanting that to infringe on her brand as this sort of wholesome mother and creative person who’s living this amazing life in Montecito because that doesn’t tally with what’s coming from the Hollywood Reporter. So I’m sure that’s at play as well, they’re thinking ‘hang on a minute, we need to put a stop to this.”
Kate praised Harry for doing a “brilliant job” in New York as he joined a summit in New York to discuss the global mental health crisis facing young people. He warned the next generation’s future is in danger of being stolen if their advice is not listened to.
Harry called on governments to bring young people into decision-making policy to avert problems as he kicked off a run of high-profile appearances in the Big Apple.
The duke is championing causes close to his heart and those associated with his late mother Diana, Princess of Wales on the solo east coast trip with two days of events during UN General Assembly High-Level Week and Climate Week.
He took to the stage with the Diana Award on Monday, joining the charity’s chief executive Tessy Ojo and two winners of the Diana Legacy Award, Chiara Riyanti Hutapea Zhang, 18, from Indonesia, and Christina Williams, 27, from Jamaica. Harry told the winners his mother would have been “incredibly proud” of them.
Kate said: “He was sort of railing against those big companies saying ‘we need to take action for the sake of our children’ and it was so powerful.
“It was such a brilliantly worded speech and really well delivered and I thought ‘yes Harry, that’s what you should be doing, that’s exactly what you should be doing.”
