The Duke of Sussex and others have been criticised by the Charity Commission for letting a “damaging” boardroom battle play out in the “public eye” and harm the reputation of a good cause co-founded by Harry.
The charity regulator investigated Sentebale after founders Harry and Prince Seeiso stepped down as its patrons in support of a group of trustees, who resigned following a dispute with board of trustees chairwoman Dr Sophie Chandauka.
The watchdog criticised all parties in the fallout for allowing it to play out publicly and described how all trustees contributed to a “missed opportunity” to resolve the issues that that led to the serious disagreement that risked undermining public trust in charities generally.
