This might really come back to haunt Prince Harry…
The Duke of Sussex has been embroiled in some messy drama this week, and for once it has nothing to do with the rest of his family. Nope, this is all on him!
After announcing his departure from his co-founded charity Sentebale last week, the chairwoman Dr. Sophie Chandauka accused him of “harassment and bullying” amid other nasty allegations against the organization at large (including Prince Seeiso of Lesotho and the board of trustees who also quit), such as abuse of power, misogynoir, and more. This after they tried to oust her.

Amid this all, a video resurfaced of Meghan Markle instructing Sophie not to stand by Harry at a charity polo match in April 2024, forcing the lawyer to awkwardly duck under a trophy to get to her new place beside the Suits alum.
Sophie and other sources claimed Meghan wasn’t expected at the event, which caused confusion during the photo op. According to reports, as backlash surfaced after the event, Harry asked the chairwoman to issue a statement defending Meghan, but she refused, prompting him to write her an “angry” message, per Page Six.
Now, the outlet’s insiders think Harry should be super worried about this message ever getting out!
On Tuesday, an insider said the Archewell founder should fear the release of the message because it makes him look like a hypocrite! The charity source dished:
“Harry should be nervous about this message coming out, especially when he has been so outspoken about his wife being bullied in the past.”
Meghan has often complained about being treated poorly while in the royal family, and he stood up for her so much they quit! She’s also been accused of bullying staff, which sources have denied. But if Harry’s enemy now has proof he’s bullied her that could really damage his reputation, the insider shared:
“When Megan was accused of being a bully, Harry’s world stopped. He moved heaven and Earth to try to protect her. He alienated his family to protect her — and now he’s being accused of the same thing.”
Oof!
Another reason Harry should be stressed?? A Sentebale rep even confirmed the message exists:
“This is true. There is a document.”
Yikes!
The charity confidant also pointed out that the Archetypes host, who has been busy promoting the launch of her As Ever products this week, has not spoken out in support of her husband yet. Hmm. She probably doesn’t want it overshadowing her personal business success, but yeah, it’s not great she’s ignoring it!
