King Charles III is under intense scrutiny after 11 out of 12 gardeners at his cherished Highgrove estate resigned, citing low wages, overwhelming workloads, and a toxic work environment.
Reports allege that the King’s exacting and sometimes petty demands, including micromanagement and harsh memos, have led to plummeting staff morale and even injuries. 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 staff. The mass exodus threatens the reputation of Highgrove, a garden Charles has spent decades cultivating.
This scandal comes as the King is already facing health challenges and speculation about the future of the monarchy.
