Meghan Markle’s Royal Enemy Jason Knauf Still Works For Prince William And Kate Middleton
In his court statement, Jason claims that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were involved in briefing authors Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand on their unauthorised biography Finding Freedom, and that Meghan had written a letter to her father Thomas Markle with the intent that it may be leaked to the press.
If that weren’t enough, Jason also played a key role in the revelations at the time, reportedly complaining about the treatment of three female colleagues he claimed had been driven out of the royal household by the duchess.
Jason is said to have called the alleged treatment “totally unacceptable” and also expressed concern about the stress being experienced by Samantha Cohen, the couple’s then private secretary.
Jason says he had advised Meghan on her infamous letter to her father that was at the centre of her now-successful Mail on Sunday privacy case. In his court statement, Jason Knauf said he received a text message from Meghan Markle explaining why she sent the letter that her father later on gave to a news outlet for publication.
In the message to her former communications secretary, Jason Knauf, the Duchess of Sussex says the letter she had drafted to her father Thomas Markle, 77, had been written “with the understanding that it could be leaked.”
