Fans have noticed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been stepping out lately for solo appearances and charity events. Experts say it’s all part of a PR strategy to pull the couple out of the narrative that the only thing they have to offer is dirt on the royal family and become more known for philanthropic efforts.
The Duchess of Sussex has also been dealing with some bad press lately after The Hollywood Reporter published what former staffers said about working for her. Members of the “Sussex Survivors Club” described the former Suits star as a “terrible boss” everyone is “terrified of” who “barks out orders” like a “dictator in high heels.” And when some came to Meghan’s defense, those former employees doubled down calling her a “demon boss.“To distract from all that, Harry’s wife attended the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles Gala on Oct. 5. However, Meghan gave a reason for attending that is being challenged by her ex-pal who was also there.
