Prince Harry was accused of losing his interest in his sentebale charity. Reportedly, this happened after he married Meghan Markle and moved to the United States.
Khoabane boss Theco, brother of the co -founder of Charity Prince Seeiso, said Harry’s attention to the “killing of the spirit” of the organization.
According to the telegraph, he expressed a surprise that the Duke of Sussex often visited African countries, but skipped Lesotho. He also visited it during a personal holiday with Meghan.
Sentebale, founded in 2006 in memory of Princess Diana, supports children affected by HIV in Lesoth and Botswana. Harry regularly used a visit to Lesotho. After that, however, in October 2024 returned only every six years. Meghan accompanied him.
Although he appreciated the charity during this visit, local leaders felt abandoned. Theko chief said it was strange that Harry had withdrawn from his mother’s heritage.
Caritas was also affected by controversy. Its chairwoman of Sophie Chandauk allegedly bullying, harassment and racism. She claimed that Harry had tried to use Sentebale to strengthen Meghan’s public image.
In response to Harry, Harry called the situation “heartbreaking” and denied the claim. Chandauka later resigned. Reportedly refused to issue a statement supporting Meghan Markle despite Harry’s application.
The tension was deepened when dr. Margaret Ikpoh, which has just joined the album, also resigned because of media attention.
“It is a particularly difficult time when I joined the organization, given the unexpected permanent and disturbing media attention,” Sentebale spokesman said.
The Charity Commission is now investigating the management of sentebale. Meanwhile, Meghan never visited Lesotho.
“It looks like a distant person for us. We don’t know about it,” said the Chief of Theco.
The locals also shared concerns. Former employees claimed that long -term jobs were promised when the charity organization opened their children’s center. However, they only received temporary work.
Some said that during his visit, it was not allowed to meet Prince Harry. Members of the community complained that the charity organization took over the football field, which was once used in public gatherings.
Not everyone complains
Despite problems, some young people appreciated the impact on charity. They remembered pleasant workshops and care from employees.
One parent said that the closure of charity would not completely solve problems. Harry’s departure made him “sad”, he added.
The director of Sentebale said that the charity organization will continue to be hired locally. He moved higher roles to South Africa. Although some continue to support Harry, others believe that his absence has deeply injured the matter.
