Josh Kettler, who served as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s chief of staff for just three months, has parted ways with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. His departure occurred shortly before their anticipated tour of Columbia. Kettler, who joined the couple’s team in May, had also been involved in significant events, including the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.
The resignation has been described as a mutual decision, with Kettler initially joining on a trial basis. This exit is part of a broader pattern of high-profile staff resignations from the Sussexes’ team, highlighting ongoing challenges in retaining employees.
A former staff member criticized the couple’s management style, suggesting that dissatisfaction among employees was significant. They noted that many staff members, despite their high performance in previous roles, would not return to work for the Sussexes.
The couple’s four-day tour of Columbia begins today, marking their first major engagement since Kettler’s departure.
