Dr. Chandauka claimed that her fallout with Prince Harry began when she refused to publicly defend his wife, Meghan Markle. During a photo op at the Royal Salute Polo Challenge in April 2024, footage went viral of the Duchess of Sussex motioning Dr. Chandauka to stand beside her rather than Prince Harry.

It’s been a few months since Prince Harry stepped away from his role as founder and patron of his beloved Sentebale charity, and now, after an investigation by the U.K.’s Charity Commission, the saga has finally reached a conclusion—and Harry is speaking out.

The charity means a lot to Harry, who co-founded it alongside Prince Seeiso of Lesotho in honor of their mothers, Princess Diana and Queen Mamohato Bereng Seeiso. That’s why it was especially shocking when, earlier this year Harry exited Sentebale following issues with the chair of the Sentebale board, Dr. Sophie Chandauka.
