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 micromanaged staff with exacting and sometimes petty demands, contributing 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 royal employment practices. Critics argue that the King's reputation as a caring employer is at risk, while supporters say his attention to detail is justified.
The mass exodus has raised questions about staff welfare and the management of royal estates.
