Buckingham Palace hires law firm to investigate bullying claims against Meghan

Buckingham Palace has hired an external law firm to investigate claims that the Duchess of Sussex bullied royal staff.

“Their commitment to look into the circumstances around allegations from former staff of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex is being taken forward but they will not be providing a public commentary on it,” a palace spokesperson told CNN.

The spokesperson did not say which firm would be investigating the claims.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are not commenting.

A spokesperson for the pair previously dismissed these bullying accusations, reported by The Times, as “defamatory.”
