Not a great time to be around Meghan Markle‘s staff, apparently!
The Duchess of Sussex is losing yet another “key staff member” in the coming months in what could be a major shake-up for her family, according to a new report out this weekend in the Sunday Times.

An insider revealed that Meghan and Prince Harry‘s interim private secretary, Samantha Cohen, intends to leave her post by the time Meghan’s baby is born next spring.
The insider revealed (below):
“[Cohen] has let it be known that she intends to leave after Meghan’s baby is born next spring … Sam will be a huge loss. Going forward, Meghan might need someone cut from a slightly different cloth to traditional courtiers, who is not a career civil servant or royal insider.”
Interesting!
Cohen — who is sometimes referred to by her nickname, “The Panther” — had previously worked for the royal family for more than 17 years, most notably as Queen Elizabeth II‘s assistant private secretary.
She had originally resigned her post last summer, but then negotiated a deal to stay on and help Meghan transition into royal life with the baby coming on the way, per the reports.

All this keeps coming back to Meghan’s rep, though, as she’s suffered through a few notable weeks of bad press that’s seen “insider” sources busy revealing alleged details not too flattering to her overall profile and reputation.
The fact that Cohen is leaving — and abruptly so — certainly may not help.
Thoughts, Perezcious readers?!
