Prince Harry’s relationship with the African charity Sentebale has come under scrutiny after a Lesotho royal accused him of abandoning the cause following his marriage to Meghan Markle.
Separately, Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation is facing backlash after it pulled funding from the Milwaukee Muslim Women’s Coalition, following an opinion piece by its founder calling for Palestinian liberation.
Prince Harry’s Choices Questioned: Royal Rift, Charity Fallout, and Global Controversy
Prince Harry’s once-strong bond with Lesotho, where he co-founded the Sentebale charity, appears to have waned. A Lesotho royal has openly stated that Harry’s absence “killed the spirit” of the cause, highlighting his lack of visits since 2015 and questioning his sincerity in promoting the region’s welfare.
The Archewell Foundation’s decision to cut ties with a Muslim women’s organization over pro-Palestinian commentary has sparked controversy. While Archewell claimed the founder’s statements conflicted with its values, critics see the move as a betrayal of free expression and a politically motivated reaction.
Adding fuel to the fire, Prince Harry’s unexpected trip to Ukraine, where he met war victims and veterans, has drawn mixed reactions. While some praised his humanitarian effort, others questioned his logic—claiming security concerns in the UK seem contradictory when he’s willing to travel to a war zone.
This move also reportedly angered Prince William, who has maintained more traditional royal duties. The visit was unannounced and potentially seen as overshadowing royal protocols, further deepening the long-standing rift between the brothers.
As Prince Harry’s actions continue to spark criticism, his roles as a humanitarian, royal, and public figure face renewed scrutiny—raising questions about his current priorities and values.
“When [Sentebale] was launched, I remember his words quite vividly, because he was very strong in saying ‘my mother, this place, her passion about Africa’…”
