Meghan Markle’s former press secretary is not regretful after accusing her of bullying via NY Post.
During a new interview with “60 Minutes Australia”, Jason Knauf, a former palace aide who previously worked with Markle, Prince Harry, Prince William and Kate Middleton as communications secretary, confirmed he stands by his allegations against the duchess, in 2018.
“I wouldn’t change anything,” Knauf declared.
When asked about the public attention he received following his 2018 accusations about Markle leaked in 2021, Knauf said, “I think it’s tough, but it’s probably quite good.”
“Someone who is helping other people how to deal with the public eye… you probably have to take your own medicine sometimes,” Knauf continued.
“You can’t choose just to take the fun stuff in any job, and that applies to the prince and princess as well as everyone else working for them,” he added. “So, I wouldn’t change anything.”
In 2018, Knauf had alleged in email correspondences to the palace’s human resources department that Meghan bullied two PAs “out of the household.”
Knauf’s claims were later leaked in March 2021 shortly before Markle and Harry’s tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey aired.
“I am very concerned that the duchess was able to bully two PAs out of the household in the past year. The treatment of X was totally unacceptable,” Knauf reportedly wrote in his message to William’s press secretary at the time.
