British royal says he had no option but to quit in solidarity with Sentebale trustees after a loss of confidence in Sophie Chandauka
The parts that interest me are highlighted in bold. My comments are in red:
Sophie Chandauka, chair of Sentebale since 2023, claimed the charity’s founders — Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso of Lesotho — “want to force a failure and then come to the rescue”. This was my thought too when I learned that Harold had leaked that he was going to step down. Has he submitted his resignation officially or is he hoping that his PR onslaught will force Dr Chandauka to step down?
The royal patrons and all five of the charity’s trustees earlier this week resigned rather than remain involved with Chandauka as chair. The UK Charity Commission is looking into the events.
In her first interview since the dispute erupted, Chandauka defended her record as chair, insisted the organisation would “live on” and said Prince Harry’s “brand” had hindered the charity.
“The number one risk for this organisation was the toxicity of its lead patron’s brand,” Chandauka told the Financial Times. Absolutely agree. People with money are irresistibly attracted to drug addled, traitorous sons and brothers. More so when they have a desperate attention seeking grifter and ex yacht girl for a wife.
Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso founded Sentebale, meaning “forget me not”, in 2006 to help young people affected by Aids in southern Africa with healthcare and education.
The charity’s future was thrown into doubt on Tuesday when the co-founders announced they were stepping away from Sentebale after the trustees tried and failed to remove Chandauka as chair.
“The relationship between the charity’s trustees and the chair of the board broke down beyond repair, creating an untenable situation,” the pair said in a joint statement.
“These trustees acted in the best interest of the charity in asking the chair to step down, while keeping the wellbeing of staff in mind. In turn, she sued the charity to remain in this voluntary position, further underscoring the broken relationship. Attagirl!
“We will be sharing all of our concerns with the Charity Commission as to how this came about.” The question is will they have receipts? I have no doubt that Sophie will have and wait with bated breath.
Representatives for Prince Harry later strongly denied he had sought to engineer the collapse of the charity in order to rescue it. Yeah, we believe a lying, grifting, disaster chasing mofo like him over a highly educated successful woman with a proven track record.
Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso founded Sentebale in 2006 to help young people affected by Aids in southern Africa with healthcare and education.
Chandauka, a Zimbabwe-born and London-trained lawyer, had previously served on the board of trustees between 2008 and 2014 before her appointment to chair in 2023. She has held roles at Meta and Morgan Stanley and now leads a life sciences company in New York.
She told the FT that as Sentebale’s chair she had been on a mission to transform the charity — from overhauling the charity’s culture, operations and long-term strategy, with a focus on US fundraising.
Chandauka said she also moved to widen its remit to include climate resilience and wealth inequality, while shifting more decision-making to leaders in southern Africa.
“The way the organisation had been set up in 2006, was no longer appropriate in 2023 in a post-Black Lives Matter world,” said Chandauka. “Funders were asking for locally led initiatives.”
The transition had triggered friction between UK-based staff and those in Lesotho, where most of the charity’s 500-plus workforce are based, and Botswana, Chandauka said.
The board felt “a loss of power and control and influence . . . oh my goodness, the Africans are taking over”. I bet. Harold and his skank don’t know how to deal with people who say no!
Chandauka added that during her time as chair she experienced “disrespect, bullying and intimidation” and “misogyny and misogynoir (misogyny directed at Black women)”, allegations that have been vehemently denied. There is no suggestion that Princes Harry or Seeiso were alleged to have behaved in this way.
Kelello Lerotholi, one of the trustees who resigned this week, told Sky News he did not recognise the allegations: “I can honestly say, in the meetings I was present in, there was never even a hint of such.” ‘Not recognising the allegations’ is a meaningless rebuttal. Of course he doesn’t recognise it. If the allegations are true his reputation would be ruined and he could be prosecuted.
Baroness Lynda Chalker of Wallasey, who served as a trustee for nearly two decades until November, told The Times on Thursday Chandauka’s “almost dictatorial” style had led to clashes. ‘Almost dictatorial’ but not quite obviously. After all if it were true why insert an adverb? A smear but framed in such a way as to avoid litigation.
Tensions came to a head in February when trustees sought Chandauka’s resignation, blaming her for the charity losing out on funding while simultaneously increasing spending on consultants, according to people familiar with the matter. Have they met their patron? Learnt anything about his sleaze, grifting and piggy backing onto the vulnerable, disabled and dead? Did the trustees believe that he and his wife’s appalling behaviour would not affect their funding stream?
Chandauka said she had filed a report to the Charity Commission that month. “I view the request for my resignation as being a direct response to my raising significant concerns regarding the Charity’s current governance, management and administration,” she wrote in the complaint, seen by the FT. Absolutely agree with her assertion. Cannot be interpreted in any other way.
On March 5, Chandauka took the dramatic step of applying to the UK High Court to try and block a boardroom vote to remove her. “They thought I wouldn’t have the audacity to proceed with a court action,” she said. They were wrong. Their mistake was to bring in an educated woman with experience at an elite level to be their ‘yes woman’ and patsy.
The newly formed board of Sentebale includes Iain Rawlinson, a financier who was previously chair of Prince William’s conservation charity Tusk Trust and has been advising Chandauka. Well, well, well!
He told the FT there had been a concerted effort by certain trustees “to destabilise and remove Sophie” from her position.
The origins of the dispute have been highly contested by both sides. Chandauka said she first felt tension between Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, and herself in April 2024.
Chandauka said she had refused what she described as a request by the royal’s team to defend his wife, Meghan, in the media after negative coverage of her. “I said no, we’re not setting a precedent by which we become an extension of the Sussex PR machine,” she said. Well done, Sophie! Megs trying to force another woman, and a strong, experienced, educated black woman at that, to act as her defender and human shield. FAFO Megs!
She argued that the volatile public sentiment around Prince Harry since his move to the US and media fallout after the release of a Netflix documentary in 2022 and his book in 2023 had an impact on the charity’s ability to diversify its donor pool and make senior hires. 100% it would affect funding and senior recruitment. Were the trustees stupid?
“When you start to interview people, they’re asking questions about, well, these mixed messages around the patron,” she said. Very delicately put. Completely wasted on the moron.
A person familiar with the trustees’ account of events said: “The charity has been almost entirely reliant on the positive view of Prince Harry to raise funds.” Yeah well, that went out of the window a long time ago.
They said the dispute had nothing to do with personal tensions: “There are real issues at hand that have been raised and not addressed.
“The trustees tried to negotiate this privately and requested she consider her position due to their lack of trust and confidence in her as a leader.” In what way were the negotiations conducted privately when Harry leaked his intention to resign before Sophie had said a word?
The person added: “The trustees were supportive of moving fundraising towards America, the problem was she failed to do that.” Is this connected in anyway with Harry trying to register Sentebale as a trademark in the US last year?
Lawyers for Prince Harry said there had been a breakdown in relations between the chair and key individuals, including some staff, trustees and major funders.
Prince Harry has over the years provided direct funding for the charity, including $1.5mn from the sale of his book Spare, 2022 accounts show. Latest available figures show total income in August 2023 stood at £3.4mn, down from £4.5mn a year earlier.
A Charity Commission spokesperson said: “We can confirm that we are aware of concerns about the governance of Sentebale. We are assessing the issues to determine the appropriate regulatory steps.”
Representatives for Prince Seeiso were contacted for comment.
Chandauka told the FT the public row had been stressful for the charity’s staff. “The team is not equipped to deal with this glare.”
But she added that her message to Sentebale’s former patrons was: “The team is resolved that Sentebele will live on, with or without you.” Is this the polite version of Voetsek Harry?

Funny how with the supposed Sussex interest in serving others, that comes with the condition they have to serve them. Meghan isn't even officially a part of Sentebale but she wanted defending.
Prince Williams trustee joining with Dr Chandauka is HUGE! I wonder how much was being siphoned out from Sentabale that she caught, just like what happened with the Royal Foundation before they got kicked out. Remember the missing $4 million dollars right before they got kicked out of u..k. & the $9 mil that mysteriously showed up in Doritos account.
What we need are both Sentebale and Archewell to be investigated asap! I really need it to be known how H&M used Sentebale to fund their lifestyle and how the millions that was “donated” to Archewell in its early days was from Oprah and that they were paid millions to crap on the royal family and call them racists. Because remember Megsy claimed she wasn’t being paid a single dime for the interview, she just wanted to speak “her truth” aka LIES.
I would much rather their personal tax returns be audited. Trust me that's where the biggest bodies are hidden. Offshore.
Invictus, Travlyst, Well Child, African Parks, Aspen Institute, Better Up & any other affiliation JH had with any charity, business, Board or award. You think JH won the NAACP AWARD or Pat Tillman award? Nope! Where do you think he got the money to purchase the awards - maybe USAID $$$ from skimming & funneling thru: USAID➡️NGOs➡️NGO➡️🔄Charity, AWell, etc. They needed money to purchase the two palm trees! If I were a betting person I'd say JH has been taking advantage of the system for a long little while!
Elon Musk calling out non-profits, such as Archewell, taking money from the government (USAID), our hard earned taxpayers' money, lining their pockets, buying houses, jets, etc.."living like Kings and Queens"👎
And it should be! More than likely they did this for BetterUp and getting a foot to see what Nonprofits they can leech off into their fake non-profit. #timetocancelthesetwo
The Princess of Wales visited The Royal Marsden Hospital in London, where she received cancer treatment to personally thank staff for their care and highlight their world-leading work.
In conjunction with the visit, Kensington Palace announced that The Prince and Princess of Wales had become Joint Patrons of The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust.
During her visit, Catherine spent time with patients in the Diane McCarthy Medical Day Unit, where chemotherapy and immunotherapy are delivered.
She also met with staff and thanked them for the vital care they provide and all they do for patients and their families.
This was Catherine's first solo public engagement since her treatment began.
It's been awhile since I posted but I hope to be back more. These two effing drifters are done. Prayers to my coworkers who are in the line of fire in Southern California. They continue to keep getting alerts to evacuate. Also my work is helping out those affected by the fire, so been a little busier than usual.
“Her hair was of extraordinary length and thickness: having combed and twisted it at the back of her head, it was necessary to make a kind of loop from it and pin it with a thick tortoiseshell comb, divide rest into four sections, braid each and wrap it around her head so that the comb with the twisted hair in the center, the braids, 1½ inches wide, formed a kind of crown in front; at the temples the hair was braided into pigtails an inch wide, which fell down her cheeks and framed the charming oval of her face; Under the ear the pigtails rose to the braid and complemented this already luxurious hairstyle.”

You’re such a hater that your white decrepit faves looks like boiled split teabags p*dos huh? Haggard ole Princess Kate w the flabby a** and the “prince” who looks like a bucktooth shoe that don’t even want her? Sad.
Hi Meghan. Are you talking about yourself again? You have to wear so many fake ones (teeth), because your breath be humming. We all see your multiple personalities coming out.
I feel ya, you and your separated broke ass man are nowhere near the gorgeous "Power Couple". After all even the surrogates refused to let you keep the kids, even when you went to Nigeria.
You have NOTHING and YOU ARE NOTHING, but a Yachtie, still opening your legs to Pale, Stale men to get ahead, servicing those people, including Uncle Andy (allegedly) and you tried to bribe him and pretend you were knocked up. But he ghosted you..just like everyone else. Thus you were ragdoll handed ✋️ down to the nephew, and used the same fake story on him. 🤢🤮
You are "Persona Non Grata", wherever you go.
You have to "buy awards" whereas the "Power Couple" give out awards, can fundraise and continously have the back up of us REAL BRITS and AMERICANS, even the REAL Elites, such as Biden, went to go visit the REAL Royal, not the "Rent a Royals". You have to "beg" like the 🐕 you are to bum rìdes and make up lies and 💩; still remaining a joke, on top of that irrelevant. Briefcase #24(6), down in the totem pole; which you are very "familiar with".
Need to get back on your meds again. But I guess PA and the elites stopped your payments. That's why your husband is with the blonde and you keep flicking from man to man.
I will choose the stable "Power Couple" all day, every day cuz you ain't 💩 just a 🤡🤭🤭🤭🤣😂🤣
And lastly you are RIGHT! EVERYONE HATES YOU ROACHEL RAGLAND!! EVERYONE! Hollywierd (Kevin Costner, Gwenyth Paltrow, A listers like Cameron Diaz, even Nachos Wife) HATES YOU!! BRITS HATE YOU!! CANADIANS HATE YOU! Veterans HATE YOU!! Even your own co-workers at Suits, except for Abigail Spencer, who you pay to come out HATES YOU!
You are HATED everywhere you go! NIGERIA, even Colombia, are REJECTING Your BROKE, Lazy Grifting ASS cuz YOU ARE
