The chair of a charity set up by the Duke of Sussex in memory of his mother has accused him of “harassment and bullying at scale” after he resigned from the organisation earlier this week.
Sentebale was founded in 2006 by Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso of Lesotho to support young people and children in southern Africa, particularly those living with HIV and Aids, a cause which Diana, Princess of Wales, campaigned for.
On Tuesday, Harry and several trustees announced their departure from the charity over dispute with the chairwoman of the board, Dr Sophie Chandauka, having requested her resignation.
Speaking to Sky News, Dr Chandauka accused the Duke of initiating a campaign against her by “unleashing the Sussex [PR] machine.”

“And can you imagine what that attack has done for me, on me and the 540 individuals in the Sentebale organisations and their family?
“That is an example of harassment and bullying at scale.”
Sky News reported that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had declined to respond to the comments, but a source close to the former Sentebale trustees is said to have described Dr Chandauka’s claims as “completely baseless”.
