Prince Harry sued for libel by his former charity Sentebale, court record shows
The charity says the claim follows a breakdown with Harry over governance disputes and a public rift with chair Sophie Chandauka.
- Court records revealed on Friday that Sentebale filed a libel claim against Prince Harry and former trustee Mark Dyer at the High Court in London, though no details of the lawsuit were disclosed.
- This litigation follows Harry's March 2025 resignation as patron, which stemmed from a public falling-out with board chair Sophie Chandauka, who subsequently reported him to regulators for alleged bullying and harassment.
- Britain's Charity Commission reported on Friday it found no evidence of bullying, yet criticized all parties for weak governance and allowing internal disputes to become public.
- Chandauka previously stated that Harry's "unleashing of the Sussex machine" fractured the relationship between the prince and the 540 staff members who work for Sentebale.
- Founded nearly 20 years ago by the Duke and Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, Sentebale supports young people living with HIV and AIDS in Lesotho and Botswana, a mission now complicated by the legal dispute.
