Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will reportedly not be participating in Buckingham Palace’s probe into alleged bullying of aids by the Duchess of Sussex while she was a working royal.
On Tuesday, The Times in the U.K. alleged that Markle faced a bullying complaint made by one of her close advisers. However, the 39-year-old’s team has strongly refuted the claims. Regardless, the Palace released a statement announcing that it would be conducting an investigation into the allegations.
However, according to a report from the “Today” show on Thursday, The Duke and Duchess will not be asked to participate in the probe about Markle’s alleged conduct with the royal staff.
Representatives for Buckingham Palace did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request for comment.
