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 standards and micromanagement, including frequent memos and 'impossible requests,' have created low morale among staff. Some former employees claim they were underpaid and even suffered injuries trying to meet the monarch’s demands. The King’s Foundation has denied the allegations, insisting staff welfare is a priority, but the controversy has sparked public debate about the royal workplace.
This mass exodus threatens King Charles’s reputation as a caring employer and casts a shadow over his beloved gardens.
