Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have hired Bill Gates’s former assistant and an ex PA to a famous snowboarder as their new advisers.
Sarah Fosmo, 45, has been appointed as Meghan’s most senior adviser as she makes another attempt to relaunch her career.
The former employee of Bill Gates will oversee a ‘dynamic period of growth’ for the Duchess as she launches her Netflix lifestyle series With Love, Meghan, her As Ever product line and her podcast Confessions of a Female Founder.
Prince Harry also hired a new adviser Lianne Cashin who was previously the executive assistant to his former chief of staff Josh Kettler.
The Duke does not currently have a chief of staff after Mr Kettler failed to make it through the trial period.
Harry and Meghan have built somewhat of a reputation for their inability to hire and keep the right staff since they moved across the pond.
The pair hope the ‘exceptional’ new additions will be able to guide them as they take on ‘ambitious ventures’.
Ms Fosmo described herself as ‘an accomplished professional with an extensive, long-tenured career managing complex, high-stakes operations for ultra-high net worth individuals’.

Adding she is ‘adept at navigating high-pressure environments, while maintaining a warm, approachable presence and representing principals with poise and professionalism’.
She previously spent six years working at Gates Ventures – Bill Gates’s private office – in executive administration.
Before that, she worked for the American motivational speaker Tony Robbins as a senior executive assistant for seven years.
Ms Fosmo once described Bill Gates and Oprah Winfrey as two of her ‘favourite people’.
Harry’s new hire Ms Cashin has worked her way up through the Archewell ranks since joining just after its launch.
It’s understood she was an executive assistant at the Sussex’s production company before working as head of operations for almost four years until being promoted to Prince Harry’s right-hand woman in his private office.
Ms Cashin keeps a low public profile but is thought to be single and in her early 50s.
She was once the personal assistant of Shaun White, a professional snowboarder, and is thought to have been involved with Harry’s polo team Los Padres.
The American will guide Harry through the next stage of his life following his Netflix documentaries, sensational television interviews and confessional memoir.
