Jason Knauf, former butler to the British royal family, gave an interview to the program '60 Minutes Australia' and the revelations keep coming.
Apparently, in addition to being close to Prince William and Kate Middleton, Jason was also Meghan Markle's secretary.
During the conversation, he was confronted with the accusation he made in 2021, in which he revealed that the Duchess of Sussex bullied him like a 'bully'.
According to the New York Post, in 2018, Jason Knauf sent an email in which he denounced the situation that ended up becoming public. The aforementioned text was sent by the former butler to the Human Resources department, at the time he was performing his respective functions as secretary.
When asked about the situation, Jason concluded: "I wouldn't change a thing. It was difficult, that's for sure, but at the same time it's also good. But I don't regret anything. Sometimes, you have to taste your own medicine."
Here is the message Jason Knauf sent, retrieved by the New York Post:
"I am deeply concerned that the Duchess has managed to intimidate two aides, who have since left. The treatment of 'X' [name withheld] has been unacceptable. The Duchess seems intent on always having someone in her sights. She is bullying 'Y' [name withheld] and undermining her confidence. We have received numerous reports of unacceptable behaviour towards this individual."
As reported by royal expert Tom Bower, one of those staffers reportedly told Knauf that her encounters with Markle made her “feel sick,” while other unnamed staffers reportedly told her, “I can’t stop shaking” and “I’m scared.”
Meghan Markle denied the bullying allegations at the time through her representatives, who said the claims were the “latest attack on her character.”
