The Duke of Sussex has announced his resignation as a patron of Sentebale, a Lesotho-based British charity which he co-founded, after a row between the trustees and the chair of its board.
Prince Harry said he had stepped down alongside co-founder and fellow patron Prince Seeiso of Lesotho and Sentebale’s board of trustees after Dr Sophie Chandauka’s relationship with the trustees “broke down beyond repair” and she sued the charity after she was asked to step down.
Dr Chandauka has reported the charity to the UK Charity Commission. She said she had “blown the whistle” about “abuse of power” and “harassment”, and said her work was “in pursuit of the integrity of the organisation”.

The Charity Commission says it is “aware of concerns about the governance” of Sentebale and is looking into them.
