I remember reading that they were trying to persuade Samantha to stay on from Meghan's first engagement. She is obviously a woman of integrity and a dream to work with.
When Sir Christopher Geiht ran afoul of Charles and Andrew HM, not surprisingly, backed her son's and so he tendered his resignation. Samantha, as his deputy, resigned in solidarity but our wily Queen asked her to stay on working with Harry and Meghan to help Meghan get ready to become a member of the firm. She obliged and then the Sussexes were moving to Windsor and she stayed on, then Meghan was pregnant . . . . .
Perhaps Samantha is happy with the respect of HM and a totally new challenge working with the younger members, especially knowing that while Sir Christopher resigned, he was appointed head of the new Commonwealth department.
It’s debatable whether a former ambassador to Albania is a ‘high level’ diplomat but regardless it’s good to have someone in place.
Interestingly they’re sharing a private secretary much like Edward and Sophie.
Sounds good. I've been wondering when this would happen.
If this is correct, it would be a terrific appointment. This lady has the credentials in diplomacy. I hope she's ready for the icy blasts delivered to the Sussexes from their critics in the media and elsewhere all the time, and can bring some stability to organising the Susexes' engagements throughout the year.

Of course they are asking readers to ID her. Zero respect for privacy and yet folk surprised they wanted to keep the god parents a secret. This is why.
Also laughable they wrote a whole article about how amazing this nanny is and she is a godsend to Meghan while having zero clue who she is. They can keep that fiction.
There is 0 reason we need to know information about their nanny or any royal nanny. Whoever she is, nanny or not, they need to leave her alone.
Very positive article about the Sussex duo and their staff

Harry and Meghan’s office moved to Buckingham Palace last week-
I have read that Omid Scobie is quoting comments allegedly from Harry with regards his view on a nanny. ' not Mary Poppins' using a comparison to the nanny of the Cambridge family.
I do not know how reliable his reports are but comments like this do not help any ' feuds'.
I do not actually know who he is to be honest.
Nanny Maria has rarely worn her uniform over the past 5+ years she's been with the Cambridges, so that is silly and doesn't seem a valid issue. And if the Cambridges had had an issue with her wearing it, she probably would have worn street clothes like usual.
And Mary Poppins never wore a uniform.
