Josh Kettler took up the senior post working with Prince Harry in May ahead of the Sussexes’ tour to Nigeria.

His departure comes as Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, prepare for their working trip to Colombia this week.

It is understood Kettler was hired on a trial basis and the decision to part ways was mutual, with both sides agreeing it was not the correct fit.

Harry and Meghan have gained a reputation for being unable to retain staff as they forged ahead with their charitable and production ventures in the United States.

Kettler, who was previously chief of staff at communication platform Cognixion, was said to have been brought in to guide Harry through the next phase.
