Reports via PEOPLE suggest that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are losing their director of communications four months after she took on the role.
Prior to joining the couple’s team in late May, Emily Robinson worked at Netflix as a Senior Director of Publicity. Robinson has since vacated her position as director of communications for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex after a few months, the Daily Mail reported on Friday, October 24th. She’s among several communications staffers who have exited the Sussexes’ team in recent years.
Robinson has not updated her LinkedIn to include a mention of her time working for Meghan, and Prince Harry, at this time.
A spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex told PEOPLE, “Ms. Robinson oversaw project-based work for a very successful season of With Love, Meghan and additional support for the production company.”
“She did an excellent job and completed these projects with great success,” the spokesperson concludes.
After relocating from the U.K. to California in 2020, Meghan and Prince Harry have had several staffing alterations. It was revealed in June this year that Los Angeles-based deputy press secretary Kyle Boulia and U.K. press officer Charlie Gipson had departed a year after they were brought on.
Last year, their global press secretary and head of communications, Ashley Hansen, also split with the couple as she launched her own communications firm.
Liam Maguire, who is the director of communications in Europe, and Meredith Maines, who is the couple’s chief communications officer, remain in their roles.
Former publicists James Holt and Miranda Bardot have been promoted to non-PR roles.
