Prince Harry’s Huge Sacrifice to Back Meghan Markle
Prince Harry has made waves by stepping away from his role as patron of Sentebale, a charity he holds dear, amid a messy internal clash. Now, whispers are swirling that he’s desperate for answers as his wife, Meghan Markle, gets tangled up in the drama.
The Duke of Sussex, who co-founded Sentebale in 2006 with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho to honor his late mother, Princess Diana, is pinning his hopes on the Charity Commission. With a case now open, Harry believes the truth will finally come to light. The charity, set up to support children and young people in southern Africa—especially those with HIV and AIDS—has been a cornerstone of his legacy.
For the past two weeks, Harry’s been locked in a public showdown with Sentebale’s chief, and he’s after clarity. Even after stepping back from royal duties in 2020, he kept a close eye on the organization. But things took a turn when several trustees bailed, reportedly clashing with the chair.
In a joint statement with Seeiso, Harry explained his exit: “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.” He added, “In turn, she sued the charity to cling to this voluntary role, further proving the relationship was beyond saving.”
But the chair, Sophie Chandauka, isn’t going quietly. She’s hit back, accusing Harry of trying to “eject” her through “bullying” and “harassment.” The plot thickens with an older spat resurfacing—one that drags Meghan into the mix. Apparently, a year ago, Harry messaged Chandauka after she refused to squash rumors of a falling-out with the Duchess.
According to The Telegraph, someone from Harry’s team had pushed Chandauka to release a statement denying any tension with Meghan. When she said no, Harry stepped in himself. Insiders told the paper he sent her a sharp note, demanding she “explain herself” in a tone described as “unpleasant” and “imperious.”
Now, this latest twist has tongues wagging. Could Meghan have pushed Harry to ditch his beloved patronage? The speculation’s heating up, and all eyes are on the Sussexes as this royal saga unfolds!
