Meghan Markle Reportedly ‘Doesn’t Like’ Dr. Sophie Chandauka — The Chairwoman of Prince Harry’s Charity
Long before Prince Harry’s highly publicized fallout with Dr. Sophie Chandauka, the chairwoman of his Sentebale charity, there were signs of trouble — and it seems Meghan Markle might have been at the heart of it.
A source speaking to The Mail revealed, “The real issue began with Meghan. She just doesn’t get along with Sophie.” This suggests that the tension between Meghan and Dr. Chandauka started brewing well before the recent drama surrounding Prince Harry and the charity he helped establish back in 2006.
One telling moment reportedly happened at a polo fundraiser in Florida. Dr. Chandauka greeted Meghan with warmth, but the Duchess allegedly brushed her off with a curt “Hi” before walking away to sip champagne with her friend Serena Williams. An insider noted, “Meghan didn’t seem interested in chatting or connecting with the event’s supporters,” even though Dr. Chandauka tried to make introductions.
Things only got worse behind closed doors. According to *The Telegraph*, Harry’s team once reached out to Dr. Chandauka, asking her to publicly dismiss rumors of a rift with Meghan. When she declined, Prince Harry reportedly sent her a sharp, “imperious” note that left a sour taste. Sources described it as “unpleasant,” hinting at growing friction.
Dr. Chandauka has since spoken out, accusing Harry of using “bullying” and “harassment” tactics to push her out of her role. The situation reached a breaking point when Harry stepped down as Sentebale’s patron in March. This week, he finally addressed the controversy, saying he supports the Charity Commission’s investigation into the matter and slamming what he calls “blatant lies” about the whole ordeal.
The clash between Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and Dr. Sophie Chandauka has clearly stirred up plenty of drama — and it’s a story that’s far from over.
