Informing the media about the details of the daily activities while on tour was the job of the communications team. They usually supply the media with a packet of information, including info about the attire of the royals.
The staff would have been powerless to stop her from wearing the earrings, so they had to come up with something to limit any fallout.
And nobody would ever had known about where those earrings had come from if Meghan hadn't made accusations that palace aides refused to protect her or help her or offer her guidance.
Her former staff going to be revealing a whole lot more when they are called upon to give examples of Meghan bullying them. I expect to hear all the details about the freebie clothing.
