A charity co-founded by the Duke of Sussex is suing him for defamation, court records suggest. Sentebale, which supports young people in Africa, is shown on online court records as suing Prince Harry, in a case filed on 24 March. Representatives of Prince Harry and Sentebale have not provided any more details about the claim. Prince Harry left the charity last year in an acrimonious dispute over how Sentebale was being managed. The court filings show Prince Harry as a defendant alongside Mark Dyer, another former trustee of the charity, in a claim listed as 'defamation - libel and slander'. There are no other documents published alongside or any further information. Prince Harry and his fellow founder, Prince Seeiso, left the charity in March 2025 along with a group of trustees, in a dispute with the charity's chair, Sophie Chandauka. There was a Charity Commission investigation which found blame on all sides and criticised the way the dispute had played out so publicly, in a way that harmed the charity. The charity works in Botswana and Lesotho to support the health and wellbeing of young people, especially those with HIV and AIDS.}

Defamation Lawsuit Filed Against Prince Harry by Sentebale Charity
The Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, faces a defamation lawsuit from Sentebale, a charity he co-founded to support young people in Africa. Details remain scarce as court documents reveal the claim was filed last month.
In a surprising turn of events, Sentebale, a charity established by Prince Harry, has launched a defamation lawsuit against him. The nonprofit, which focuses on aiding young individuals in Africa, claims in court documents that Harry made statements damaging to its reputation. The lawsuit comes shortly after Harry's contentious departure from the charity last year amid management disputes. Both Prince Harry and Sentebale have refrained from commenting further on the matter.
