Prince Harry sued for libel by his former charity Sentebale

Prince Harry’s former charity, Sentebale, is reportedly suing the Duke of Sussex for libel one year after he resigned as its patron amid an ugly internal dispute with the charity’s chairwoman.

Sentebale filed the defamation claim against Harry at the High Court in London last month, according to court records obtained by Reuters on Friday.

The charity also reportedly sued one of the 41-year-old prince’s close friends, Mark Dyer, who served as a trustee of Sentebale before Harry and Sophie Chauuka’s falling out.

No further details about what the lawsuit entailed have been released, per the outlet.

A rep for the Duke of Sussex did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

Harry co-founded Sentebale, a charity focused on ​helping young HIV and AIDS victims in the South African countries of Lesotho ​and Botswana, in 2006.

However, the duke resigned from his role in March 2025 after clashing with Chauuka, who still serves as chair of the charity’s board.

Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, who co-founded Sentebale with Harry, and the board of trustees also left with the prince when he resigned last year.

Botswana, meanwhile, reported both Harry and the trustees to Britain’s charity regulator over allegations of bullying and harassment.
