Prince Harry Dramatically Quits His Own Charity After Losing Boardroom Battle

According to a bombshell report in the London Times, Harry–who has raised millions for the charity he established in 2006–has been forced out, along with his co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, after losing a bitter battle to get rid of the chair of the board of the charity, Sophie Chandauka, a Zimbabwe-born lawyer.

In a joint statement, which is yet to be officially released but was been obtained by The Times, Harry and his co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lesotho wrote: “What’s transpired is unthinkable. We are in shock that we have to do this.”

They said: “Nearly 20 years ago, we founded Sentebale in honour of our mothers. Sentebale means ‘forget-me-not’ in Sesotho, the local language of Lesotho, and it’s what we’ve always promised for the young people we’ve served through this charity.

“Today is no different. With heavy hearts, we have resigned from our roles as patrons of the organization until further notice, in support of and solidarity with the board of trustees who have had to do the same. It is devastating that the relationship between the charity’s trustees and the chair of the board broke down beyond repair, creating an untenable situation.”

The Times said that a group of trustees had asked Chandauka to resign, and that she had retaliated by suing the trustees, who have now also quit.

The princes’ statement said: “These trustees acted in the best interest of the charity in asking the chair to step down, while keeping the wellbeing of staff in mind. In turn, she sued the charity to remain in this voluntary position, further underscoring the broken relationship. We thank all the trustees for their service over the years and are truly heartbroken they’ve had to follow through with this act.

This makes me very sad.

"There are people in this world who behave as though they are above the law and mistreat people, and then play the victim card and use the very press they disdain to harm people who have the courage to challenge their conduct," she said. This, she said, was the "story of a woman who dared to blow the whistle about issues of poor governance, weak executive management, abuse of power, bullying, harassment, misogyny, misogynoir [discrimination against black women] - and the coverup that ensued".

That's pretty damning.

And she said what a grifter would say

Here's the full article.

Apparently, the UK is investigating this charity.

[quote] Sentebale is now being investigated by the U.K. Charity Commission.

On what basis would you say that, R4? Especially given her CV. The court upheld her position. I imagine she provided compelling evidence for them to rule in her favor.

Most of those board members were friends of Harry. This woman was new. I bet they brought her for appearances' sake and thought she would tow the line out of gratitude. So many of these vanity charities are scams to funnel money and line pockets. They didn't count on her wanting to run a above-board operation.

People who personally set up a charity and are particularly known for being extremely litigious don't just step down unless they know they've really fucked up.

I am on Team Harry, this bitch sounds like she's to big for her knickers! The main goal was to help with HIV not other issues this bitch decided to take upon herself as more important. Whatever, they are going to be sorry when he no longer is going to be able to help them raise money.

Bye Harold, happy to see the back of your useless husk. And your loser friends, too. BYE

Please, R3. I loathe the useless fool but the woman's attack was taken from the Meghan/Blake/cunt playbook, except for the addition of "misogynoir."

It's Africa.

That means it is corrupt.

So if I get this right the charity hired someone to oversee the day to day running, she claims to have found something concerning and raised the issue with the board at which point they voted to remove her, she applied to the high court to stop that, the court said OK we'll at least hear the case, crucially they've not made any actual decision on validity of claims and the entire board of trustees and the founders immediately quit on the supposed basis they couldn't afford to fight a legal battle that hasn't even started yet battle? The fuck did she find are they running blood diamonds or something?

They're up to something.

Harry, like it or not, is a hugely famous draw to an obscure charity.

I bet the money has already been "diverted".

No one in their right mind would give that charity a dime or have anything to do with the woman in charge. It and she are toast. Next.

"With heavy hearts..."

Smegs always writes shit like that.

Sentebale is the charity that was involved in child abuse scandals a couple years ago, right? How does that connect to this?

There was some scandal with “African Parks” that is somehow connected to Sentebale? I didn’t follow it.

At any rate, pre-Megxit, I’ll bet there was a palace staff member tasked with keeping tabs on the charity to make sure it was kosher but since they left for the US, who had that responsibility?

Haz put mostly white men into every position, and they all resigned too, temporarily of course. The earlier Sentebale scandal was the reveal that $84,000 out of $1.5million went to the children, and rumors swirled ever since. Dr. Chandauka has replaced Haz' bootlickers with mostly black women.

Africa Parks is a different corrupt NGO. Its rangers regularly rape and abuse women and children.

I certainly hope Meghan puts a handful of repackaged pretzels, delicately tied with a bow and heartening calligraphy, on "H's" pillow tonight!

Divorce soon? Harry has setbacks, Meghan got invited to Gwyneth's. What more can he do for her now?

Yeah, he probably figured out he wasn't getting paid to be there.

Corruption? In Africa? In the nonprofit sector?

Well pass me the smelling salts.

Dr. Sophie Chandauka isn't messing around. She gave an interview with Financial Times today, and will be appearing on Sky News tomorrow morning. In the FT she claimed that Harry insisted she release a PR statement praising Megz (which she flatly refused to do) and also wanted to leak PR puff pieces to make Harry look like a hero. Also, she accuses Harry of leaking negative stories about her (others involved with the charity) to the press. She insists that donations are down because large donors want nothing to do with the Sussexes fearing backlash as their brand is too toxic. Karma is great!

That's pretty serious and the first time, to my knowledge, that anyone on a high level has publicly criticized the Sussexes, and it's the CoB of his beloved charity, no less. I'm sure she has receipts and Harry was too dumb to keep any on his end.

^I just remembered Bill Simmons of Spotify who called them grifters. That's criticism coming from four continents, including Australia. So many other people with buttoned lips.

Maybe the charity head is just stirring the pot, but I'm here for it. Harry getting the same treatment he and his wife meted out to is great fun.

[quote]Elsewhere, she argued various controversies around Prince Harry following his relocation to the US had affected the charity's ability to diversify its donor pool and hire people. "When you start to interview people, they're asking questions about, well, these mixed messages around the patron," she said.

[quote]She said she first felt tension between Prince Harry and herself a year ago. She also claimed the duke's team asked her to defend his wife Meghan from negative publicity. "I said no, we're not setting a precedent by which we become an extension of the Sussex PR machine," she said.

Every bit of the woman's story rings true.

I do not see how anyone can doubt this woman

Sophie Chandauka, the boss of Prince Harry’s charity, Sentebale, fell out with Harry and Meghan Markle after she refused a request by the couple to tell the media that Markle hadn’t been “mean” to her at a charity polo match, the Daily Telegraph revealed Saturday.

Harry quit the charity in a blaze of recriminations this week.

The awkward encounter at a Sentebale polo match has been shared thousands of times on social media in recent days.

Damningly, it shows Markle telling Chandauka—the CEO of the charity and a globally respected lawyer who has worked in-house for Meta and JP Morgan, among others—to move away from Harry during photographs. Chandauka is then forced to duck under the trophy to the place of Markle’s choosing so that only Markle would be pictured by Harry’s side.

The Daily Telegraph on Saturday cited a “well-placed” but anonymous source as saying: “Ultimately, it comes down to that polo match and the awkward moment with Markle moving her out the way. Harry then demanded that she make a statement to the press, basically saying ‘Meghan wasn’t mean to me’, and she refused to do that.”

The account will do little to rehabilitate Markle’s image of being a nightmare boss.

It would be easy to dismiss the claims were it not for the fact that Chandauka gave an astonishing on-the-record interview to the Financial Times saying almost the same thing.

Chandauka took no prisoners in her FT interview, making it clear that she was glad Harry departed the organization: “The number one risk for this organization was the toxicity of its lead patron’s brand.”

She added that public sentiment around Prince Harry had been “volatile” since he moved to the United States and trashed his family in a series of films, interviews, and his memoir.

“When you start to interview people, they’re asking questions about, well, these mixed messages around the patron,” she said.

She also doubled down on claims of racism that she made in her initial statement, saying the board felt “a loss of power and control and influence ... ‘Oh my goodness, the Africans are taking over.‘”

Harry donated over $1.5 million from the sale of his book Spare to the charity. His team told the FT he had never sought to engineer its collapse.

[quote] The awkward encounter at a Sentebale polo match has been shared thousands of times on social media in recent days.

Lol.

Harry's probably super-bummed that he's lost an opportunity to play polo.

Why was Markle even on the stage? She’s not the patron, she didn’t play in the match.

This is not Meghan's first awkward moment at a polo match. Remember the trophy presentation to Nacho's team in Santa Barbara? How many examples are there of her failure to learn ?

I do love how Meghan's supporters scream racism if we dodn't believe everything she said because, you know, we have to believe her because she's a woman of color says. Now that Dr. Chandauka is spilling tea, Meghan's fans are like "we don't believe her." Love the double standards lol.

R33 everything in your post is about race. Are all your posts about race?

Those videos of her at the polo ceremonies trying to get all the attention. Even her dim hubby is allowed to pull focus from her.

In NOT allowed …

The more he does the more you realise how much he really does need those men in grey suits telling him to not be a retard.

R33 is Sunny, THE CROOK, Hostin who needs to worry about her jailbait husband.

R34 Is it, Rose? Gee, it's almost like that was the point.

Enough of the White Saviors Complex. It's 2025 and believe it or not, there are intelligent, educated Africans, probably more educated that many people on DL quite capable of running and managing organizations. The only thing you need to do is get out of their way and let them flourish. Stop with the stereotypes.

[quote] Why was Markle even on the stage? She’s not the patron, she didn’t play in the match.

Because everything is always about MEEEEEEEEE!!!

[QUOTE]And she said what a grifter would say

Does this sound like the resume of a grifter, r4?

You can question her alliances with multinational corporations, but can you at least tell us why you think she sounds like a con artist vis a vis Sentebale?

[QUOTE]Sophie Tendai Chandauka MBE (born 1978)[1] is a Zimbabwean corporate finance lawyer, entrepreneur and Head of Americas Risk Management and Intelligence at Meta.

Prince Harry accused of ‘harassment and bullying’ by charity chairwoman

The chairwoman of a charity co-founded by Prince Harry has accused him of “harassment and bullying at scale” in a TV interview Sunday, after he and others involved with the charity quit this week.

Sophie Chandauka, the chairwoman of Sentebale, said the Duke of Sussex unleashed “the Sussex (PR) machine” on her earlier this week when he publicly quit as a patron of the charity, along with co-founder, Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, and the board of trustees.

As he gets older, Harry looks more and more like his father. You cannot mistake the similarity in their eyes and brows.

[quote] Damningly, it shows Markle telling Chandauka—the CEO of the charity and a globally respected lawyer who has worked in-house for Meta and JP Morgan, among others—to move away from Harry during photographs. Chandauka is then forced to duck under the trophy to the place of Markle’s choosing so that only Markle would be pictured by Harry’s side.

I find it so hypocritical of Meghan to do this to Ms. Chandauka, since she claims to be:

1. So very "pro female" and all about empowering women, and

2. Proud of her black heritage.

Because here she is, treating a respected, professional black African woman like absolute shit.

I wonder how this is going to be treated in Montecito. Will the normally litigious Sussexes sue Ms. Chandauk? A legal action means discovery: hand over your texts and emails and get ready to be deposed. Also, isn't it harder to prove slander in the U.K.?

[quote] Will the normally litigious Sussexes sue Ms. Chandauk

r46 No the reason the entire board Harry and the Lesotho royal quit was to avoid a legal battle. Which is how you know this is serious. Harry loves those!

Well, Harry and Mrs Harry will not be able to play the race card this time around.

Sophie Chandauka beat them to it.

I wonder if there were dirty deeds going on with the money?

R45 Megz is not a feminist, she's a mean girl. She is racist having spent a significant amount of money on plastic surgery to up her Caucasian features, listed her ethnicity as white on both her acting CV and driver's license, and in her own words, was shocked and hurt when the UK Press referred to her as black.

Good point, r47. I wonder what kind of powers the UK Charity Commission has in their investigation. Are they just auditing Sentebale's filed paperwork or can they investigate board members who may have received money from the charity for whatever reason? They really shouldn't be getting any.

[quote] I certainly hope Meghan puts a handful of repackaged pretzels, delicately tied with a bow and heartening calligraphy, on "H's" pillow tonight!

And don’t forget a ramekin of handmade cheese spread made of her own breast milk!

Sprinkle Sophie Chandauka with edible flowers.

Anyone who uses the term "misogynoir" has no right to accuse others of playing the victim card.

May I just remind everyone that Meghan is a cunt.

Dr Chandauka, who was on Sentebale's board before becoming chair, accused Prince Harry of wanting "to force a failure and then come to the rescue".

But she told them: "The team is resolved that Sentebele will live on, with or without you."

In a separate interview with Sky News, Dr Chandauka was sharply critical of the way in which Prince Harry resigned.

She said the only reason she was speaking up is because the duke this week "authorised the release of a damaging piece of news to the outside world without informing me or my country directors, or my executive director".

"And can you imagine what that attack has done for me, on me and the 540 individuals in the Sentebale organisations and their family?" she said.

"That is an example of harassment and bullying at scale."

Prince Harry founded Sentebale in 2006. The charity has been hugely important to him and a massive part of his adult life.

So his decision to walk away from it, along with his co-founder Prince Seeiso, is hugely significant.

In a joint statement on Wednesday, the duke and Prince Seeiso said they were resigning from their roles with "heavy hearts" and in "solidarity with the board of trustees".

"It is devastating that the relationship between the charity's trustees and the chair of the board broke down beyond repair, creating an untenable situation," they said.

They said the trustees "acted in the best interest of the charity" by asking Dr Chandauka to step down, but her decision to take legal action to retain her position was "further underscoring the broken relationship".

They added they would be sharing their concerns with the Charity Commission "as to how this came about".

Dr Chandauka said she had "blown the whistle" about issues including what she described as abuse of power, bullying, sexism and racism.

She said her work at Sentebale had been "guided by the principles of fairness and equitable treatment for all", and that she had reported the trustees to the UK Charity Commission.

The charity itself has confirmed a "restructuring" of its board.

Former trustees Timothy Boucher, Mark Dyer, Audrey Kgosidintsi, Dr Kelello Lerotholi and Damian West described their decision as "nothing short of devastating" for all of them.

They said they had lost trust and confidence in the chairwoman but her legal action to block them from removing her meant they had no other option than to resign.

The Charity Commission has said it was "aware of concerns" over Sentebale's governance, adding: "We are assessing the issues to determine the appropriate regulatory steps."

I like how Harold announced his resignation as "temporary." Quick, someone tell him how these things work.

I have read several articles about this, and I'm still not clear on who did what.

I find everything this Dr. Sophie says easy to imagine. And some of it comes down to Markle, as always. Markle reminds me of Omarosa from The Apprentice: someone who walks in the door and instantly alienates people.

Is Harry just stupid or is he mentally ill or both?

It sounds like it must have been a nightmare trying to run a serious charity when simple questions about the disappearance of donors couldn’t be addressed in case he was offended. Also, I wasn’t expecting that Harry was surrounded by yes men, but then, it makes sense that he would be, even in his degraded California life.

What she say?

[quote] What she say?

She said that she refused Harry’s request to falsely state that Meghan is not a nasty, vicious cunt.

Why's everything have to become an -ism these days? Once upon a time people simply didn't get along. You didn't like someone, they annoyed you, for whatever reason you didn't get on, and it was ok not to get along with some people. Kept life interesting.

I predict that Harry and Meghan will divorce.

I've always been a Meghan supporter, just because I feel that she has been bullied by the British people and the British press.

But this story actually has me disliking her, for treating this woman so badly.

If Meghan treats the Chairman of the Board of Harry's most important charity this way, I can just imagine how she treats "the little people."

R59 He is stupid, mentally ill and a substance abuser.

I watched the Sky news interview and was reminded of the whole Meghan situation. Both came into an established institution and wanted to be head bitch in charge. When it didn't work out, they went to the press with incendiary accusations.

Her most convincing charges: her claim that fundraising became more and more difficult because of Harry's trajectory in the last few years; the cronyism of the leadership; the need for the charity to move on from its original remit and to become more locally led. The subtext about Meghan is good fun; I suspect the vastly better educated and experienced Dr. C is not impressed with Meghan's nonsense.

“Haz put mostly white men”

Doesn’t appear so from their roster. Looks like a lot of women.

[quote]Both came into an established institution and wanted to be head bitch in charge.

The difference being that Dr. Sophie was the HBIC.

Team Harry all the way. This woman is one sick puppy.

So the Sussex Squad is all over SM today trying to start a rumor that Dr Chandauka is in love with Harry. BAHAHAHAHA.

So does Dr. C have a chip on shoulder, yes. But she has the right. She is extremely well-educated and recognizes that this a charity not a PR wing for Prince Harry and his ridiculous wife. I'm sure it got on her nerves to deal with with a Prince whose IQ is probably single digits and a fame whore with no actual talent.

It's impossible to dismiss the reality that Harry and Meghan are narcissistic bullies. There's just been too many reports of their behaviour from the UK and the US.

[QUOTE]I watched the Sky news interview and was reminded of the whole Meghan situation. Both came into an established institution and wanted to be head bitch in charge.

IOW, you subscribe to the uppity black women stereotype?

Did you miss the Chairman of the Board title? Nah, the charity runs itself. Dr Chandauka is just window dressing and PR to keep the natives happy. Like DEI for Africa.

[QUOTE]So does Dr. C have a chip on shoulder, yes.

Doesn't "chip on the shoulder" imply that she is not justified or that her reaction is disproportionate? Harry and the other prince tried to oust her from the board (for reasons that haven't been made clear in the reports I've read). How was she supposed to react. Submit docilely?

Dr Chandauka's allegations need to be taken seriously and investigated.

Uh oh, the retaliation has commenced. The “Dr” is an honorary degree from a university.

[quote]So the Sussex Squad is all over SM today trying to start a rumor that Dr Chandauka is in love with Harry.

It's really sad how many seem to view him as some kind of prize. Dumb men with mommy issues are all over the place.

Yes he has a title but would that make up for having to talk to him every day?

They are being investigated by the UK Charity Commission, R73.

In a revealing new interview, Dr. Chandauka reflected on a 2024 charity event where Meghan's appearance alongside Serena Williams caused a stir and led to logistical challenges on stage.

According to Dr. Chandauka, Meghan had initially confirmed she would not be attending the Royal Salute Paolo Challenge in Florida. However, she is said to have arrived unannounced with the tennis star, leading to last-minute disruptions.

During the event, Meghan allegedly made suggestions about the stage arrangement, twice requesting Dr. Chandauka to move away from Prince Harry's side. This led to an awkward reshuffling of attendees, with Dr. Chandauka having to reposition herself around the trophy.

Speaking to Sky News' Trevor Phillips, Dr. Chandauka noted that the unplanned appearance created coordination issues.

"We would have been really excited had we known ahead of time [Meghan was coming], but we didn't," she explained. "And so the choreography went badly on stage because we had too many people on stage."

The Duchess, 42, ordered people around the stage after handing Harry, 39, a trophy.

The event drew media scrutiny, with reports focusing on Meghan's presence and interactions on stage.

Dr. Chandauka also alleged that Harry's insistence on bringing a Netflix camera crew to a planned charity polo event in Miami ultimately led to its cancellation.

According to Chandauka, about a month before the event, Harry contacted the Sentebale team, expressing his desire to include footage from the event in his Netflix series.

"Prince Harry called the team and said, 'I'm doing a Netflix show, and I would love to bring a camera crew so that I can include some footage in this show," she recalled.

However, she argued that the decision was made without consulting key stakeholders.

"And so the team called me and told me, 'Oh, Prince Harry's made this request, so we're doing the thing. I said, you can't be doing the things without seeking consent from the property owners, the sponsors, all the guests. Nobody signed up to being on a Netflix show," Dr. Chandauka recalled.

She noted that negotiations with the venue quickly fell apart once the owners reclassified the event as a commercial endeavor.

"We come up with draft agreements and of course, the venue owner says this is now a commercial undertaking," she continued. "So here are my terms. We couldn't afford it. So now we lost the venue."

In a striking message to Harry, Dr. Chandauka reportedly asserted Sentebale's independence from him, stating: "The team is resolved that Sentebale will live on, with or without you."

The Duke of Sussex allegedly sent an “unpleasant” and “imperious” message to the head of an African charity he founded after she refused to issue a statement defending his wife, the Telegraph can reveal.

Prince Harry directly contacted Dr Sophie Chandauka, the chairman of Sentebale, following an awkward exchange she had with the Duchess of Sussex at a charity polo match in Miami last April.

He initially asked his team to contact the Zimbabwean-born lawyer and request she issue a statement quashing any rumours of tension between her and the Duchess.

However, after she refused to be drawn into the row, Prince Harry fired a direct message to her allegedly demanding that she “explain herself”.

According to sources, the note was “unpleasant” in tone and used “imperious” language that left the charity boss feeling taken aback.

The Telegraph understands that her refusal to comply with the request to back Meghan contributed to the bitter dispute that this week saw the Duke resign as head of the HIV children’s charity he co-founded almost two decades ago.

The actress who plays grown up Shauna is fat and ugly. She is married to Jason Ritter and I know the PC thing to say is how she is beautiful, but she is not.

Oops sorry wrong thread

R79, she's not ugly. This is the actress who played stalker neighbor Rose and Two and a Half Men.

If what is being reported is true, it's bad that Harry chose to resign from a charity for children with HIV rather than just accept Sophie Chandauka's refusal to bow to his wishes about the statement that Harry wanted.

If these tales are true, he keeps exposing the kind of person he (Harry) really is. Funny, though, since he complained that "The Palace" did not protect him and his wife when perhaps they were protecting his image from the reality of who Harry is.

Don't tell me this is really all about a damn shuffle around that trophy?

So she's was bitchy and wanted to stand by her man! She's a bitch! So what? What else you got?

Well…

It could be so damn easy for these two. Just run a few charities like actual human beings that give a shit. Stop all this shit and nonsense and just do a few good works, raise a little money, make some lives better.

Oh well.

OMG don't say it! Don't tell me someone raised in a castle with a grandma Queen and servants...

...dares to act like a King!?!?!?

Harry has created a "shadow monarchy" for himself and Meghan.

He's KING in his world.

[quote] Doesn't "chip on the shoulder" imply that she is not justified or that her reaction is disproportionate?

Her reaction is disproportionate. So is her wig.

She doesn’t have the skills to run an organisation and manage people. Negotiating permissions for press and documentary ventures is par for the course in event management and relaying that back to relevant parties is basic negotiation.

R83 The issues here are the fact that H&M, who try to paint themselves as anti-bullies and crusaders against racism and misogyny, are actually (if Dr. C is to be believed) racist, harassing, misogynists. Also the fact that Harry was trying to use the charity as just a PR exercise to the point her cared more about Netflix than the charity. And Dr. C is confirming that Harry is a toxic brand and donations are faltering with him as patron. I think the major thing that might come of this is that Invictus will use this fact as a reason to kick Harry to the curb eventually (as it is rumoured Invictus is having the same issues raising money).

Or Meghan could decide to take a day off from cunting r88. That would help too.

This chick described herself as a victim of “misogynoir”. Hard pass, sweetie.

Team no one.

This woman also wants to move Sentebale away from supporting children with HIV/AIDS towards general funding to African youth, and wants to move away from the current fundraising model to take donations from African politicians.

Harry and Meghan need to work only with people who have signed NDAs and can’t run to the press over every single business dispute, unpleasant email exchange etc

Plus the woke charity world is too risky for them. The type of characters who work at “woke” charities are very ego centric and emotional and quick to get triggered and run to the press. Case in point

Harry was never a loveable scamp, he has always been a nasty piece of work but when he was with the Royal family they covered for him.

[quote]She doesn’t have the skills to run an organisation and manage people.

She was an executive at Morgan Stanley.

Okay. This is from Page Six, but the Dimwitted Prince -- like the lot from which he springs -- can be petty tyrants or act like tyrannical toddlers when they do not get their way. He may be just like his Great Aunt Margaret or Uncle Andrew who have been imperious with mere mortals who don't bow and scrape to their beck and call.

This time an intelligent and well-experienced woman is his match!. No. She will best him!

Team Chandauka here.

"Bow and scrape"?

Girl.

Once again Harry and Meghan are getting friends to fight their fights for them (remember the day when they said they wouldn't allow anyone else to speak for them). Harry's friend claims that Dr. C is jealous of Meghan (where have we heard that one before?). These two just (well, mostly Meghan) just can't keep their mouths shut. It's all so predictable now. Someone makes a complaint, then they have to respond usually either by friends or staff about how marvellous they are, how Meghan is so perfect and shit edible flower sprinkles everywhere.

The reality is, none of this would've happened if they stayed in the royal fold. The Palace would have covered or told Harry that Royal Patrons are meant to be token representatives who drum up fundraising but simply showing up.

The Sussexes want to and will be remembered, just not how the anticipate or the way they want.

[QUOTE]This downfall will be used as an example in marketing and public relations curriculum for decades to come.

Haha, the "friend" really said that the chairwoman is jelly of Sparkles. In the un-photoshopped photo of them standing next to each other Markle looks like she rolled in fresh from the barnyard compared to a composed and well groomed Dr. Sophie. Nothing to be jealous of on that front.

The Guardian is the UK's most left-leaning and pro-Sussex publication but they're finally calling out the Sussex Squad.

According to the friend-of-Harry doing the briefing at 98's link, "It feels like [Dr Chandauka] had her nose put out of joint because she was not the most important woman of colour on the stage."

Great PR move, Sussexes! Keep it coming! Maybe next they'll call her uppity.

The Twat Squad! 😆

And in case that wasn’t clear, in the interests not of balance, but of accuracy, we do have to state that Prince Harry seems like quite hard work, too. Likewise, his wife.

Meanwhile, it goes without saying that despite its brevity, the above paragraph will serve as the [bold]twat-signal[/bold] to the so-called “Sussex Squad”, a hilarious cavalcade of single-issue human beings who patrol the internet round the clock, policing any and all criticism of the Montecito millionaire couple who ironically need expensive security in part to deal with nutjob fans like them.

So the good Dr wants to change Sentebale from an HIV/AIDS children’s charity to one focused on climate change.

Huh?

Just to clarify Dr C want to make Sentebale a charity administer for Africa in Africa rather than one based in the UK with no locals actually on the ground. This would include an expansion beyond HIV/AIDS to African Children in Poverty (including those with HIV/AIDS). Basically she's trying to end the sort of white saviour aspect to the charity.

Here's the thing, I'd be more suspicious of Dr. C-Whatever is she was new to the charity. But she was a member of the board for six years before becoming the Chair. She and Harry got along just fine until after Harry and Meghan left the royal family. Now I'm not saying she couldn't possibly be a hardass herself, but her revelations only confirm an ongoing pattern of H&Ms. Her revelations might seem petty to some, but they are idicative of a problem that both Harry and Meghan don't give a shit about the charities they represent, they just want PR (particularly Megz) e.g. Meghan only coming to an event because Netflix will be there.

This goes to a bigger problem with royals and charities. Harry and William were wrong to become too closely involved with their charities. The late Queen, Prince Philip and currently Princess Anne, have it right. They were happy to be a patron but left the actual running of things to the experts. Why, because if the shit hits the fan, their hands are clean. But we've seen it with Prince Charles' Trust that when a royal is too involved, it will bite them in the ass eventually.

There have long been rumors about H&M and money laundering, deals with Russians, etc.

Ooh, spill, r107! What are they?

[quote] Just to clarify Dr C want to make Sentebale a charity administer for Africa in Africa rather than one based in the UK with no locals actually on the ground … Basically she's trying to end the sort of white saviour aspect to the charity.

By hiring her own relatives.

Plus ça change…

R109 Clutching at straws, Meghan?

Link please r108

I buy that Dr. Chandauka is in love with Harry. She's a sick fucking cunt.

R108- The first rumor started with the purchase of the Monticello house. It was owned by a shady af Russian. The second rumor started about a charity in some other state, i believe it was based in Ohio or some such state. These rumors started years ago.

R96 complete bullshit.

Dr. Chandauka is a cunt-faced bitch. Dumb whore.

I'm sick of the racism against Harry and Megan.

I see Meghan is posting at R112 and R115.

Hi, Meghan!!

Aw! Someone didn't kiss Megan's nasty ass and this time she can't cry racism!

No one is pining for your stunted man-baby, Prince Brillo-head, Megs. Get real.

He quit because he thought he would never be scrutinized due to his privilege.

He's rather dumb, isn't Prince Harry Diana's idiot son? He's never faced "true" scrutiny.

R69 Really? I read this recently and it about sums it all up.

1. Harry hasn't visited there in the last 5 years. 2. Harry demanded $500,000 be paid to him to perform in Sentebale's polo fundraising. 3. Harry wanted the money they raised through that polo event for Sentebale...to be given to his and Megan's ARCHWELL charity, so THEY could give it to Sentebale, giving their failed ARCHWELL charity a bit of credit and validity... since they now do LITTLE with it. 4. As with Invictus... demanding to be paid to show up... he turned Sentebale into a prime grifter's moneymaking machine. 5. Harry bullied Dr. Sophie ...demanding she publically defend Meghan's reputation. 5. Dr. Sophie is a world-renound successful corporate lawyer and entrepreneur, with an impeccable reputation and credentials, who's been honored with a major award from the Queen for her service to the business world. 6. Harry, sadly, has ruined his reputation and everything he's touched since marrying Meghan.

Oh, Harry wanted a Netflix camera crew at a fundraiser/polo for the charity. They lost the venue.

What would you say to Megs and Harry? They're like the Seinfeld of Royalty.

There have long been rumors about H&M and money laundering, deals with Russians, etc.

We all know you're ill-defined and stupid! Could you let us lnow how much you HATE me?!1)

^ Sober up, toots.

R127- Stop simping for a disgusting malignant narcissist who wouldn't spit on you if you were on fire. You are humiliating yourself.

Looks like the Sussex squad pathetic fucktards have found this thread. Why don't they know that h&m wouldn't spit on them if they were on fire?

R129- They are probably paid simps or the repulsive Megan herself. No one actually likes these two ugly narcissistic grifters, they are paid to pretend they do.

[quote]She's a sick fucking cunt.

Any evidence of this?

R131- We all know she is definitely a sickening fucking cunt.

My apologies, R128 was meant for R126, not you, R127.

Dr. Chandauka is a stupid goddamned whore. I hate her.

R134- Take your meds, Megan. You have been outsmarted and out classed. The good Doctor kicked your uneducated, low rent ass.

LOL the Sussex stans are just as classy as one would expect

[quote]Dr. Chandauka is a stupid goddamned whore. I hate her.

Why are you on Datalounge?

The Sussex lovers are mentally ill and out of their heads. There's no other explanation for someone who admires Sparkles and Harold.

Meghan Markle continues her ‘astounding’ hypocrisy.

Actually that could be one of the reasons for the NDA about the factory, someone could find out exactly how many jars of jam were actually made.

(Delete one of those “actually”s)

The NDA is designed to block that she makes her jam in a third world country.

I doubt she made them in a third world country. She can’t even manage a trademark registration, how could she cope with custom regulations about imported food?

Another Bombshell!

[bold]Meghan Markle’s Polo Snub Allegedly Caused Royal Ruckus[/bold]

[italic]In yet another episode of the long-running soap opera, “Meghan vs. The Commoners,” the Duchess of Sussex has found herself at the center of what the Daily Mail delicately describes as the “massive falling out” between Prince Harry and the CEO of his AIDS charity, Sophie Chandauka.

Harry quit the charity last week after Chandauka accused him of bullying and harassment “at scale.”

While much attention has focused on a video clip of Meghan Markle ordering Chandauka to move at a polo ceremony, the Daily Mail now reveals that Markle allegedly snubbed Chandauka on arrival at the match as well.

The Mail says that Markle RSVP’d “no” to the charity polo match only to turn up last-minute with a film crew, Serena Williams, and a notable lack of royal charm.

According to the Mail, Chandauka greeted Markle warmly, receiving what one source called a “perfunctory ‘hi’” in return before the Duchess vanished into a marquee to sip champagne with Williams.

Chandauka had hoped to introduce Markle to donors and guests but was reportedly rebuffed.

The Mail reports that staff were “scrambling” to find champagne for Markle, with both Sentebale and Archewell teams roped into bubbly-fetching duty. One source put it bluntly: “She went off to the tent. Sophie found it rude.”

Things went downhill from there faster than Markle’s approval rating. Markle later texted Chandauka—the content remains unknown—and the reply was icy enough to send Harry into a tailspin. One source told the Mail, “Above all else, it was the way she says Meghan snubbed her on arrival that was the reason she wouldn’t issue some kind of supporting statement.

“Meghan then sent something to Sophie, and Sophie responded, and, after that, she [Sophie] was persona non grata,” the source said. “Harry sided with Meghan—he always does as he is dazzled by her. In his eyes, she can do no wrong, even when it comes to behaving like that at a charity event. He was raging all day about it.

“Any time Meghan is spoken of badly, he gets the hump,” the source added.[/italic]

And the only female on the board, Miss Joan Crawford, looked him straight in the eye, and in a judgmental, drawn out tone uttered directly at him, said, "Quitter."

Harry announced he was bringing his Netflix crew to the polo match without going through channels. The owners of the field said, well since this is not solely a charitable event anymore, the rental fee has gone up. Sentabale could not afford that so needed to find another field quickly. Through Harry’s connections, they found another field. Everything was rearranged to the new location. Meghan wasn’t coming and then at the last minute decided to come and she brought Serena Williams. Now Sentabale could’ve capitalized on that, fundraising, meeting donors, but they didn’t know in advance. Afterwards Sophie Chandauka gets criticized in board meetings for not being an effective fundraiser. The trophy presentation awkwardness is all anyone wants to talk about. Harry wants Chandauka to put out a statement that everything’s fine. Chandauka refuses saying she doesn’t want to get involved in Sussex drama.

Megs and Serena stayed in a tent and had no interest in meeting donors

I had a feeling when the story came out that at the core of this entire fiasco was another "What Meghan wants, Meghan gets" scenario. So now in sum Harry has lost his popularity, his family, a number of friends, his country, and now his charity. What's left to lose? Dignity is mostly out the window. Will Meghan scold him in public next?

Harry claims to read everything about himself. He must read some Markle journalism, commentary, even from the most respected papers in magazines in the English language. How can he not see that the rest of the world loathes her except a handful of deranged lunatics called the Sussex Squad? How can he not get the fucking message?

Harry's in the UK andback in court again appealing the decision about not getting security while there. And a Sussex Squadie was there with him.

[QUOTE]The Duke of Sussex exited the courtroom alongside his team as the woman — who arrived late and was fidgeting with phones and a notebook during the hearing — turned to the gallery and said, "If you're members of the press, you're the reason he's not in England."

I thought “ misogynoir” was the little flap/pocket on a French thong.

He doesn't feel safe in the UK, but war torn Ukraine is another matter.

He really is starting to look like Charles. He must hate that.

[quote]He really is starting to look like Charles.

Charles doesn't always look sullen, though.

Moaning Meghan Markle Ridiculed Over Podcast | 'Spoilt Brat' Prince Harry In Ukraine.

R152, I applaud him for going there. That is what Harry should be doing. His charity work with wounded and recovering veterans highlights their needs. Good for him. He should do more of that.

But you get the point, don't you, r156?

Did he bring his kids to Ukraine?

He sho is ugly

Looks like KGT is block evading. Bitch has been blocked again.

Looks like he made a deliberate effort to upstage his father's state visit to Italy (on behalf of the British government). That's not going to help mend fences with the King, nor will it endear him to the Labour government.

Or maybe r156 doesn't get the point. Isn't his visit, extracurricular to the British Foreign Office, which supports Ukraine pretty much unconditionally? Harry wanking off on his own is not a good thing, FFS!

I'm starting to think BonniePrinceCharlie thinks Harry should be a shadow prince and have his own cabinet.

Not BPC but I also think this was not completely out of line. Harry is still affiliated with Invictus and visiting wounded veterans is part of that. He was in Lviv which is pretty far from the front. Granted it’s dumb when he’s suing to get better protection in the UK—maybe this will result in that case being tossed.

It's dumber if he has no authorization from anyone in the Foreign Office.

I guess it depends on what passport he’s traveling with. Does he still have a diplomatic passport from the UK?

Next obvious question: was a Netflix camera crew there to capture the moment?

Might this be Harry's Uvalde moment?

R149 How much longer can he adore her? She’s demolished his entire life and shows no signs of stopping. In the beginning, the sex was probably worth it (to him) but now?

"Publicity Stunt? “It’s All About Him” | Prince Harry Slammed Over Ukraine Visit Despite Security Concern"

He is afraid to be in the UK without special security but he can go to war torn Ukraine? smdh

Yeah, it's kinda dumb, if Harry and the Mrs. claim that they're private citizens, yet are suing the UK government for protective services because they still consider themselves public individuals in danger if in the UK.

Still, this is what he should be doing -- highlighting the plight of wounded soldiers. He can connect with them based on his own experience, as well as connect to his mother's work that highlighted the plight of those in or affected by warfare.

I don’t think a Netflix crew is still tagging along. Their contract is nearly up.

I'd suspect the Sussexes are gearing up any remains of their contratual basis with Netflix by hoovering up any opportunity they can. If it's not dead by the 31st, charge everything you can! Harry learned that new trick from his wife.

Like a tree falling in the wood without a witness… if a Netflix crew wasn’t there to film Harry in Ukraine, did his visit to Ukraine even happen?

No one seems to care about this, but it an unbelievable tragedy that the HIV positive children are not being supported anymore by a rich celebrity. When you read about the herd boys and all the children without shoes, it is hard not to cry. fifteen years ago, Prince Harry was the best thing that ever happened to them and now he is gone. I am really heartbroken for the very kind, gentle people of Lesotho. And they lost USAid thanks to Trump.

They're the caucasian version of Will and Jada.

Have Harry or the charity been pulling their weight for a while?

R170 Connect to soldiers from his “own experience?” Sitting in a bunker playing video games? He said he only understood the cost of war on the plane ride home.
