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, combined with poor pay and morale, have created a workplace many staff found intolerable. The King's Foundation has denied claims of a toxic environment, but the controversy has sparked public debate about royal employment practices. Some former staff described being micromanaged and dismissed for minor mistakes, further fueling criticism.
The scandal threatens to tarnish King Charles’s reputation as a caring and attentive employer, raising questions about the treatment of royal household staff.
