Prince Harry Resigns from Sentebale Amid Charity Turmoil

Prince Harry has resigned as patron of Sentebale, a charity he co-founded in 2006 in honor of his late mother, Princess Diana, citing internal conflicts as the reason for his departure. The charity, which supports children affected by HIV/AIDS in Lesotho and Botswana, has faced a breakdown in trust between its board of trustees and chairwoman Dr. Sophie Chandauka, leading to several trustee resignations. Harry expressed his heartbreak over the situation in a joint statement with co-founder Prince Seeiso, acknowledging the untenable conflicts within the organization. Chandauka has accused the trustees of poor governance and has taken legal action to retain her position. The Charity Commission is now investigating the governance issues at Sentebale. This turmoil marks a significant and personal setback for Harry, who has long been dedicated to the charity's mission.
