00:00Meghan Markle was so rude to her wedding staff that the queen had to intervene.
00:04Meghan Markle was rude to her staff. The run-up to their wedding in 2018 was equally fraught with intense demands.
00:11There's a fresh wave of reports circulating that shed light on a very specific incident involving Meghan Markle that allegedly occurred right before her royal wedding.
00:20These details come courtesy of royal biographer Katie Nichol, and they've certainly sparked a lot of conversation.
00:25Apparently, she had a tense encounter with a wedding caterer, and the incident allegedly took place during a menu tasting at Windsor Castle.
00:33The claim is that Meghan became quite upset during the tasting, specifically after she believed she could taste egg in a dish that was supposed to be completely vegan and make macrobiotic.
00:42The situation reportedly escalated into what was described as her berating the caterer.
00:47Now, this is a bit wild. This alleged intense exchange wasn't just confined to the kitchen.
00:52Meghan reportedly reached the ears of no less than Queen Elizabeth herself.
00:58The late queen, known for her steadfast demeanor and adherence to protocol, is said to have intervened.
01:03The account claims that the queen directly told Meghan,
01:05In this family, we don't speak to people like that.
01:08It's a pretty strong statement, if it's true, and it highlights the kind of immediate feedback one might receive with the highly structured environment of the royal family.
01:15A representative for Meghan has not yet publicly commented on these specific allegations when contacted by Page Six.
01:22This actually ties into a pattern of previous accusations suggesting that Meghan Markle could be difficult to work with among palace staff.
01:30For example, British journalist Tom Quinn had previously claimed that Meghan was given the nickname Duchess of Difficult,
01:35even before she and Prince Harry made their decision to step back from the royal family in 2020.
01:40These earlier reports suggest a general sentiment among staff members.
01:45Further anecdotal evidence from an anonymous palace staff member shared in past reports painted a picture of Meghan as someone whose demeanor could vary.
01:53This individual reportedly described her as sometimes friendly, but otherwise seemingly irritated if staff didn't respond to her requests instantly.
02:00These kinds of observations, while coming from unnamed sources, certainly contribute to the overall narrative that have been circulating for some time regarding staff relations.
02:08Beyond just Meghan Markle being labeled as difficult, there were also claims that some staff affectionately, or perhaps not so affectionately,
02:16depending on perspective, referred to Meghan as Mystic Meg.
02:19This nickname was reportedly due to her new agey and woke views, suggesting a clash of cultural perspectives,
02:26or perhaps just a difference in approach compared to the traditional palace customs.
02:30And then there are more serious allegations of her going even farther.
02:34There were past reports that Meghan had went too far with a young palace staff member back in 2018.
02:40While these are distinct from the catering incident,
02:42they form a part of broader discussion about staff experiences during her time as a working royal.
02:47These recent claims, particularly the one about the interaction with the caterer and the Queen's alleged intervention,
02:53were also discussed on a recent episode of Page Six Radio on Sirius XM,
02:57indicating the level of public interest these stories continue to generate.
03:00These reports are also coming from a very specific source, including a royal biographer,
03:07and are part of a narrative that has been building over time.
03:10Without direct confirmation from Meghan or Buckingham Palace in these specific incidents,
03:14they remain allegations.
03:16However, they certainly add to the ongoing conversation about the Sussex's time within the royal family,
03:22and the various perspectives surrounding their departure.
03:24The royal family operates under a very specific set of traditions and expectations,
03:30and any perceived deviation or even a difference in communication style can become a subject of scrutiny and discussion.
03:37There were also broader allegations that Meghan's demanding leadership style
03:41led some staff members to seek therapy or take extended leave due to stress,
03:46with some describing the work environment as comparable to a high-stress teenage drama.
03:51Sources have also claimed she would bark out orders, send angry 5am emails.
03:56These instances collectively contribute to the perception of a demanding and sometimes challenging working environment,
04:02leading to such a high turnover rate among their staff,
04:05a phenomenon some royal observers have even dubbed the Sussex Survivors Club.
