Lesotho: Last News

Prince Harry is addressing his African charity, Sentebale, which he stepped away from weeks ago due to an “untenable” situation.

alarming allegations raised by Sentebale chairwoman Dr Sophie Chandauka.“The regulator for charities in England and Wales has opened a regulatory compliance case to examine concerns raised about the charity Sentebale,” the Charity Commission said in a statement on Thursday.“The Charity Commission is now in direct contact with parties who have raised concerns to gather evidence and assess the compliance of the charity and trustees past and present with their legal duties.” It comes after the charity — which was set up to help AIDs patients in Africa — was embroiled in a vicious dispute between Prince Harry and other leading trustees, and Chandauka, who became leader of the organization in 2023.Last week, the Duke along with all of the other trustees on the charity board, resigned in what was seen as a statement on Chandauka’s leadership.For her part, she accused “toxic” Prince Harry of “harassment and bullying,” in an interview on Sky News last weekend.Previously, Chandauka accused the Sentebale board of “bullying, harassment, misogyny [and] misogynoir,” when she first raised her complaint with the watchdog.Prince Harry and fellow charity co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lesotho said last month that their relationship with Chandauka was broken “beyond repair, creating an untenable situation.” The Charity Commission will now look to “determine whether the charity’s current and former trustees, including its chair, have fulfilled their responsibilities under charity law,” the statement went on.“After a period of assessing the initial concerns raised with the Commission, the regulator informed the charity on April 2, 2025, it has opened a regulatory compliance case.

Prince Harry stepped away from the charity he helped found, Sentebale, and now, the charity’s chairwoman, Dr. Sophie Chandauka, is speaking out in a new interview.

The head of Prince Harry’s Africa charity has accused the Duke of Sussex of “harassment and bullying” on a grand scale as she claimed the royal now has a “toxic” brand.Prince Harry, 40, sensationally quit the Sentebale charity — which he co-founded in 2006 to help young people affected by AIDs in southern Africa — along with his co-founder and all five of its trustees on Tuesday, rather than work with its chairwoman, Dr. Sophie Chandauka.Now the under-fire leader has accused the royal of “unleashing” his PR “machine” on her following the release of his joint statement with co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lesotho.“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 country directors, or my executive director,” Chandauka told Sky News in an interview on Sunday.“And can you imagine what that attack has done for me, on me and the 540 individuals in the Sentebale organizations and their famil[ies]?” she went on.

Prince Harry has stepped away from the charity he helped found, Sentebale, which he started all the way back in 2006.
