An unfortunate turn of events. The royal family is allegedly “scrambling” after Lady Susan Hussey — Prince William‘s godmother and one of King Charles III‘s top advisors — resigned from her post amid allegations of racism.
“This latest scandal has Palace operatives scrambling to do damage control, and it couldn’t have come at a worse time,” royal expert Christopher Andersenexclusively told Us Weekly on Wednesday, November 30, adding that Hussey, 83, was a close friend of the late Queen Elizabeth II and a lady-in-waiting to Queen Camilla. “She’s not a marginal player — she operates at the heart of the royal household.”
The King: Life of King Charles III author added that the scandal is likely “put a damper” on the Prince of Wales, 41, and Princess Kate‘s trip to Boston, which begins on Wednesday, as well as draw more attention to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s upcoming tell-all documentary. “It’s another PR disaster for the royal family — and with the release of the Sussexes’ documentary on December 8 and Harry’s tell-all book in January, the next couple of months are going to be tough for the Royal Family in general and the King in particular,” Andersen said.
