Tensions within the royal family continue to rise as Prince William appears to be a significant obstacle to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's efforts to stay relevant.
The latest development involves Jason Knauf, a former royal aide and close ally of William, who has reignited past controversies surrounding Meghan.
In an exclusive interview with 60 Minutes Australia, Knauf revisited allegations that Meghan bullied multiple staff members during her time as a senior royal.
"Is it a coincidence that almost a week before the launch of With Love, Meghan, Jason Knauf has spoken out for the first time," the Daily Mail questioned.
The timing of Knauf's comments has raised speculation that Prince William may have given his tacit approval for the interview.
According to reports, Knauf's decision to speak out was unlikely to have been made without William's awareness and consent.
Sources indicate it is "inconceivable" that Knauf would have gone public without William's approval. This has led to speculation that Knauf could be a "ticking time bomb" that might one day damage Meghan's public image.
The outlet notes that Knauf holds critical information that could severely damage Meghan's reputation.
"For all his closeness to Prince William, Jason Knauf remains the keeper of perhaps the most devastating secrets in modern royal history - he knows about Meghan's alleged bullying of two women at a time when she was portraying herself as a feminist."
