Emily Robinson Exits as Sussexes’ Communications Director After Four Months

The exit marks at least the tenth publicist to leave since the couple moved to California.

Overview

  • People and HELLO! confirm that Emily Robinson departed after a brief tenure, with a Sussex spokesperson praising her completed project-based work for With Love, Meghan.
  • A source and a friend cited in multiple outlets say Robinson left of her own accord a few weeks ago, and her LinkedIn has not been updated to reflect the role.
  • Robinson previously served as a Netflix publicity executive and worked on The Crown, a background widely described as contentious in UK media coverage of her hiring.
  • Liam Maguire remains director of communications in Europe and Meredith Maines remains chief communications officer, while former publicists James Holt and Miranda Barbot moved into non-PR roles.
  • Recent reporting situates the departure within a pattern of rapid staff turnover and ongoing PR flashpoints, with some outlets also linking earlier talks with the King’s press secretary to Harry’s brief meeting with his father.
