Is Prince William behind Meghan Markle’s downfall? Former aide Jason Knauf’s explosive claims ignite controversy…. Check In

Prince William has found himself at the center of a fresh royal storm after his former aide, Jason Knauf, made bombshell claims about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in his first-ever television interview. The ex-royal press secretary, once a key figure in William and Harry’s inner circle, has broken his silence on the infamous bullying allegations against the Duchess of Sussex—sparking renewed speculation over William’s alleged role in her public disgrace.

Are William and Harry Still at War?
Speaking in a 60 Minutes Australia documentary titled Where There’s a Will, Knauf didn’t just address the controversy surrounding Meghan—he also painted a grim picture of the ongoing rift between the royal brothers. According to him, William and Harry remain locked in an unresolved battle, despite years of speculation about potential reconciliation.

While Knauf was full of praise for Prince William and Princess Catherine, calling his service to them “the honor of a lifetime,” his remarks about Harry and Meghan have stirred up questions. His interview has been seen by some as an “indirect attack” on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, particularly because of his past involvement in the bullying claims that rocked the palace ahead of Harry and Meghan’s exit from royal life.

Was Meghan Markle “Targeted” Before Her Royal Exit?
Knauf, who was in charge of handling press matters for the royal household, previously accused Meghan Markle of bullying staff members in 2018, just before her wedding to Prince Harry. His accusations played a pivotal role in shaping negative narratives about Meghan in the British press, which she and Harry have long decried as part of a calculated smear campaign.

Now, with Knauf speaking out again, royal commentators are asking: Was this a move orchestrated by Prince William himself?

Royal expert Charlotte Griffiths weighed in on the controversy, questioning the timing of the interview and whether William had given Knauf the green light to break his silence.

Strategic Timing or a Brewing Royal Showdown?
The resurfacing of Meghan’s past allegations—just as Prince William looks to solidify his global standing—has raised eyebrows among royal watchers. Griffiths hinted that the move may be part of a larger strategy, particularly regarding the British monarchy’s relationship with Australia, where republican sentiment is growing.
