She's clearly one to abuse anyone she feels is 'in service' to her, like the scabby little nouveau-riche piece of trash she is. Honestly, it is classic nouve behavior to act like an obnoxious tinpot dictator with servants as you have no idea from your upbringing how to treat them, but with a personality disorder driving it, so it's way worse than normal as it's clearly fulfilling some deep need in her to behave like this.
So far we have accusations of abuse and workplace bullying from three countries, and three sets of staff:
- Ten Palace staff in the UK .. all highly experienced and educated people, most of whom have worked for demanding and famous employers before. Everyone from office staff to PAs to bodyguards driven out of jobs by her.
- Staff in Australia, from Lady Cosgrove (sworn at and jeered at), to lowly kitchen and waitstaff (sworn at, insulted, yelled at, stuff throw at them, forced to stay up all hours to bake her gross banana bread)
- Tyler Perry's housekeepers/maids (physically assaulted, verbally abused) in the USA.
She clearly knows to hold off on the physical assaults on people with a little bit too much rank, but you see her worst nature with people she considers true servants. I am sure she held off on this side of her nature and was sweet as pie when initially dating Harry. She doubtless has control over her actions like all abusive people do. They pick and choose targets they can get away with to satisfy their need to dominate. She wouldn't have got away with actually hitting one of Knauf's staff, so she didn't. She stuck to typical workplace bullying, like keeping people out of the loop then berating them as useless when they didn't know what was going on, or verbally abusing and belittling staff. She can get away with throwing tea at minimum wage underlings and shoving lowly immigrant servants of rich people into pools for not getting her towel in the US where fame and money rule, so she does. I always hope people like her finally pick on the wrong person and get their teeth knocked down their throats in return, but they generally pick people who cannot retaliate like that either physically or because they'll be the one who ends up arrested.
Also, notice her targets are nearly always female? I suspect because they're less likely to physically retaliate, and Smeg sees women as competition to be squashed, or heads to step on to get where she wants. Men are treated more nicely, as they can be manipulated easily with flirting and sex.
ETA: Given the turnover at Archwell, I bet there's some more tales of workplace bullying to come out of there too. Or really, anywhere she's been allowed to lord over 'staff'. Would be interested to see if there's some scuttlebutt from the lower orders at Netflix and Spotify too.

I am now older and delighted to be so. Decades ago, my beloved Mother in Law (RIP) told me it was great to get older because you stopped caring what other people thought. She was dead right too. There's something very liberating about getting old.
