Prince Harry’s charity, Sentebale, has found itself in hot water as bombshell accusations threaten to tear the organization apart. Dr. Sophie Chandauka, the charity’s chair, claimed bullying and even misogyny in shocking accusations outlined by The Mail. These explosive accusations have sent shockwaves through the charity world, especially as the Duke of Sussex and co-founder Prince Seeiso have backed the trustees amid the growing tensions. 

Chandauka herself even told The Sun that she stood firm as a “proud African” and vowed not to be intimidated, insisting that her sole focus remained on Sentebale’s critical mission. As detailed by The Sun, the fallout has led to a major restructuring at Sentebale, with the Charity Commission now stepping in to investigate.
