King Charles III is under intense scrutiny after 11 out of 12 gardeners at his cherished Highgrove estate resigned, citing low pay, overwhelming demands, and a toxic work environment.
Reports allege that the King micromanaged staff with exacting and sometimes petty requests, leading to low morale and even injuries among workers. The King's Foundation has denied claims of a toxic workplace, but the controversy has sparked public debate about the monarch's management style and treatment of employees. The mass exodus has damaged Charles's reputation as an avuncular figure and raised questions about labor practices within the royal household.
This scandal comes at a sensitive time, as the King's health and future as monarch are already under public discussion.
