After news arose that Prince Harry and co-founder Prince of Lesotho were resigning ‘with a heavy heart’ from the African AIDS charity Sentebale – created to honor his late mother Princess Diana – the organization’s Chairwoman has fired back, in a scathing attack against the Dukes of Sussex.
Sophie Chandauka accused Harry of trying to oust her after she complained of ‘harassment and bullying at scale’.
Chandauka told Sky News’s Trevor Phillips that she ‘became the problem’ after a whistleblower complaint, and that Prince Harry interfered in the investigation in a cover-up.
The Telegraph reported:
“In an apparent attempt to control the narrative after a series of briefings and counter-briefings, she told Sky: ‘The only reason I’m here is because at some point on Tuesday, Prince Harry authorized the release of a damaging piece of news to the outside world without informing me or my […] directors’.”

While she alleged to have previously enjoyed a ‘great relationship’ with Harry, she also criticized him for ‘raising topics that were not on the agendas of meetings’, in an environment where everyone feared him.
The dispute over the charity’s governance appears to have started in a public embarrassment during a Sentebale charity polo match in Miami.
Images from the podium after the match showed Meghan appearing to tell Chandauka to move away from Harry, making her duck under the trophy to switch position.
This display of Meghan’s ‘personality’ generated bad publicity, and sources tell The Telegraph that the Sussexes were furious.
“’Ultimately, it comes down to that polo match and the awkward moment with Meghan moving her out the way’, the source said. ‘Harry then demanded that she make a statement to the press, basically saying ‘Meghan wasn’t mean to me’, and she refused to do that’.”

After that, sources say Harry tried hard to get rid of her, ‘undermining her, demeaning her and trying and force her hand’.
Chandauka says the mishap originated when Meghan attended the event without warning the organizers.
“We would have been really excited [if] we knew ahead of time, but we didn’t, and so the choreography went badly on stage because we had too many people. The international press captured this, and there was a lot of talk about the Duchess and the choreography on stage and whether she should have been there and her treatment of me. Prince Harry asked me to issue some sort of a statement in support of the Duchess and I said I wouldn’t, not because I didn’t care about the Duchess, but because I knew what would happen if I did so, number one. And number two, because we cannot be an extension of the Sussexes.”
Watch: full interview.
That interview was absolutely dynamite and totally coherent. Dr. Sophie Chandauka comes across as a logical, rational, and brilliant woman who’s unfairly facing harassment for bravely standing up for what is right.

The Zimbabwean lawyer threw more shade on Prince Harry by alleging that, after he left the UK for California, his brand’s ‘toxicity’ became the biggest threat to the future of the charity.
The Netflix documentary ‘Harry & Meghan’ and his memoir Spare, according to Chandauka, affected Sentebale’s ‘ability to attract new donors and make senior hires’.
