Meghan, Harry Lose Another Publicist After 10 Months
Meredith Maines exits as Sussexes’ chief communications officer amid staff reductions; she was the 11th publicist in five years and will be succeeded by Liam Maguire, UK & Europe director.
- On Feb. 28 the Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced Meredith Maines, Chief Communications Officer, is stepping down after roughly 10 months, and a spokesperson said `Meredith Maines and Method Communications have concluded their work with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.`
- Amid December changes, Archewell Philanthropies rebranded and cut 60% of staff — three people — with a spokesperson calling the moves `inevitable` and due to redundancies.
- Before joining the Sussexes, Meredith Maines worked at Google, Hulu, and Lightspeed Venture Partners and oversaw communications for the couple's nonprofit, business, and public image.
- The couple are not expected to hire another chief communications officer, while Liam Maguire, UK and Europe director of communications, will take an expanded lead role and an external PR agency is believed to be lined up for U.S. work.
- Maines' departure adds to turnover as Meredith Maines is believed to be the eleventh publicist in five years, following Emily Robinson and Ashley Hansen's exits last year.
