According to Marie Claire, at least a dozen senior staff alone have ditched the Markles’ employ since 2018. Now it’s being reported that the couple have managed to lose yet another valuable cog in the machine, a PR flak whose job it was to make the thirsty pair look good–hard to tell who failed in this equation.
Royal Family News – The Markle’s Are Losing Employees
According to The Sunday Times it is none other than PR priestess Toya Holness who is the latest to desert the S.S. Markle. This paid spinner, “ran their global public relations on both sides of the Atlantic and has been called ‘Meghan’s shadow,’” but for some reason no longer sees fit to work for the pair. Meghan has an open investigation in the UK due to her alleged bullying of palace staff. Just some background.
Holness graduated from the University of Southern California or as it is known colloquially, the University of Spoiled Children. She got a degree in “strategic PR” whatever that is and, “was promoted by the couple in March last year.”
Something didn’t work out in Montecito.

Royal Family News – The Markle’s Need A New Flak?
So what was Toya paid to do for the royal runaways? She had the apparent pleasure of, “Speaking to Meghan and Harry daily, her job was to help steer publicity for the pair.”
The outlet speculates that, “If she has indeed stepped down, she’d be one of twelve of their staff members to leave since the couples wedding day in 2018. This includes private secretaries, communications staff, a personal protection officer and more.”
Who else has jumped ship? Last year Archwell director Catherine St. Laurent left after a few months of being hired. Make of this what you will: “Sources have said that she ‘wanted out’ as she was ‘having to fulfil a great many functions for the couple.’”

And, when Meghan’s personal assistant Melissa Toubati quit in 2018, “it was claimed that the Duchess had ‘left her in tears with her demands.’” Maybe it was the reverse, we’ll have to ask Oprah.
In other Markle news, it was reported today that Meghan’s father Thomas Markle is hospitalized after possibly suffering a stroke. We will keep you updated as more news becomes available.
