Just when you thought Megan Markle couldn’t possibly be more livid, along comes Jason Knauf to remind the world that actions have consequences. The former royal aide turned whistleblower has finally broken his silence in a new *60 Minutes Australia* documentary, *Where There’s a Will*, and it’s not looking good for the Duchess of Delusion.
Let’s rewind to 2018. Knauf, then the Sussexes’ press secretary, penned an email raising serious concerns about Megan’s treatment of junior staff. This wasn’t just a casual office gripe—he specifically accused her of bullying and driving two personal assistants out of Kensington Palace. The email conveniently leaked to the press in 2021, and ever since, Megan has been shrieking about a “calculated smear campaign.” Because, obviously, the real victim here is the woman who allegedly made her staff cry on the regular.
Now, Jason Knauf has spoken out, and guess what? He’s standing firm. No regrets, no backtracking, no “I was misunderstood” nonsense. When asked if he found it difficult being in the spotlight, he simply shrugged it off, saying, “It’s probably quite good. You have to take your own medicine sometimes.” Translation? If you’re going to dish it out, you better be able to take it—a concept Megan might want to familiarize herself with.
What’s striking here is the sheer professionalism of Knauf compared to the never-ending victim narrative of the Sussexes. While Megan and Harry clutch their pearls and claim persecution at every turn, Knauf remains poised, refusing to sink to their level. He could spill so much more tea, but he doesn’t—because he doesn’t need to. The facts speak for themselves.
One of the more hilarious defenses of Megan’s alleged bullying is that British staff simply couldn’t handle her “American directness.” Cute theory, except for one small problem: Jason Knauf is also American. If he recognized her behavior as inappropriate, it’s probably safe to say this wasn’t just a cultural misunderstanding. No, this was a case of Megan treating her staff like disposable peasants, and Knauf wasn’t about to let it slide.
Oh, and let’s not forget Megan’s infamous letter to her estranged father, Thomas Markle. Megan sued a newspaper for publishing it, claiming it was private. Knauf, however, testified that Megan knew full well the letter would be leaked. In fact, she wrote it specifically to pull at the heartstrings. “I demand privacy,” she declared, while ensuring her letters got maximum exposure. Classic Megan.
If there’s one thing Megan and Harry despise more than bad press, it’s *fact-based* bad press. They were furious when Knauf provided evidence that contradicted Megan’s claims about her involvement in the tell-all book *Finding Freedom*. Megan had insisted she had nothing to do with it, only for Knauf to produce emails proving otherwise. Her response? “Oops, I forgot.” Sure, Jan.
Predictably, Megan and Harry spun Knauf’s testimony as some grand conspiracy orchestrated by Prince William. “It’s your brother,” Megan dramatically told Harry in their Netflix docuseries, as if William himself were lurking in the shadows, personally instructing Knauf to expose them. Spoiler alert: he wasn’t. Knauf, like any competent professional, made his own decisions. If Megan and Harry thought they had a loyal puppet, they miscalculated—badly.
What makes Knauf’s stance even more damning is how well-respected he is within royal circles. He’s been honored by the royal family and continues to work in the charitable sector, having helped launch Prince William’s Earthshot Prize. In contrast, Megan and Harry are still floundering, their credibility eroding faster than their Spotify deal.
Jason Knauf is a professional with integrity. Megan Markle, on the other hand, is a masterclass in self-inflicted PR disasters. No amount of victim-playing, lawsuit-flinging, or Netflix-whining can change the fact that she’s been exposed—again. And the best part? Jason Knauf didn’t even need to drag her. He simply told the truth, and Megan’s reputation crumbled all on its own.
