King Charles III is under intense scrutiny after 11 out of 12 gardeners at his cherished Highgrove House estate resigned, citing low wages, overwhelming workloads, and unrealistic demands.
Reports describe a toxic workplace environment, with staff feeling underappreciated and overworked, and some even suffering injuries. The King's meticulous and sometimes petty management style, including frequent memos and strict instructions, has reportedly contributed to low morale. The King's Foundation has denied claims of a toxic environment, but the controversy has sparked public debate about royal working conditions.
This mass exodus threatens to tarnish King Charles's reputation as a passionate gardener and employer.
