The revolving door of staff at the heart of the Sussexes' global operation has spun once again, marking yet another high-profile departure from their inner circle. Meredith Maines, the seasoned communications chief for the Duke and Duchess, is stepping down after only 12 months in the role, signalling a significant shift in the couple's media strategy.
This latest exit comes as a surprise to many industry observers who view Maine as a stabilising force within the Archewell organisation. Her departure is particularly notable given her reputation as a 'best in class' operator who brought a 'no nonsense' approach to the often turbulent world of royal public relations.
