Financial concerns and disagreements concerning fundraising have helped to ignite the row that swallowed up the charitable organization founded by Prince Harry, initiates close to former administrators at BBC News said.
An acrimonious conference room battle saw Prince Harry, his Co-founder Prince Seeiso du Lesotho and administrators resign from their roles to the charity And the initiates said that the clashes and tensions of the personality around the leadership of the charity added to the Sentebale challenges.
Financial fears were despite the charity receiving 1.2 million additional pounds from Prince Harry’s income from his successful spare play.
Sentebale said that he had managed to hire consultants to find new American donors – and that the single spare money was “incredibly useful” but did not represent a long -term “funding pipeline”.

Sentebale complaints and counter-monsts should be examined by the charity, which will have to decide to degenerate the concerns of a complete statutory investigation.
The guard dog is likely to hear financial problems of former administrators, who resigned earlier this month after President Sophie Chandauka refused to resign.
“It is devastating that the relationship between the trustee of the charitable organization and the chairman of the board of directors was broken down, creating an untenable situation,” said a statement from these administrators leaving the charitable organization.
Among the probable allegations, there are that £ 500,000 of sentebale money were spent for consultants in a strategy to obtain donations of rich and foundations in the United States, but which, according to sources close to former trustee, had not given results.
The initiates say that if the American fund collection strategy had worked this crisis in the management of the charity could have been avoided.
Ms. Chandauka has largely used the title “DR” both for the Sentebale charitable organization and other corporate parameters. This is a reference to an honorary price from the University of Coventry and is not a university or medical qualification.
A Sentebale spokesperson told the BBC that the use of “DR” was a “question of personal choice” and that there was “no legal restriction preventing beneficiaries of honorary diplomas from using the title”.
A Sentebale spokesperson rejected the statement that £ 500,000 had been spent on American consultants – and defended his approach to the search for new funds for a charity.
The charitable organization told the BBC that he had hired an American company called Lebec to build a new fundraising strategy, and that in October 2024, a team of six consultants had established 65 key relations with potential donors, which could help Sentebale in the future.
He declared that the 12 -month -old agreement with Lebec, a strategy company led by women, had successfully linked to “individuals, family offices, companies, foundations and non -profit organizations”.

The charitable organization said it was important for Sentebale to “strengthen credibility” in the United States and that the project had “managed to deliver all deliverables”.
The transition to American finance on a larger scale seems to be a different approach style of the Polo collection of Sentebale funds and celebrity events associated with Prince Harry.
Prince Harry, his co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lesotho and the administrators resigned from their roles to Sentebale, as “the result of our loss of confidence and confidence in the chairman of the board of directors”.
They left a charity created in 2006 to help young people from southern Africa live with HIV and AIDS, a project that had Strong emotional ties for Prince Harry And the heritage of his mother Princess Diana.
Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso said they are resigning from the charity with “Heavy Hearts”.
The initiates say that relations had been “loaded” last fall.
Directors’ upholstery followed Ms. Chandauka’s refusal to resign as president – and she responded with her own claims against her former colleagues.
She accused Prince Harry of having tried to talk about him And said that she had expressed her concerns with regard to the Charitable Commission, with a “complaint regarding intimidation, harassment and misogyny”.
Ms. Chandauka argued that the controversy around Prince Harry leaving the United Kingdom had meant that he had become an obstacle to the funding of donors.
“It was quite obvious to me that we had lost a number of business sponsors,” she said in an interview with Sky News.
Ms. Chandauka also spoke of a dispute on a video during a fund collection polo game, where it had been said that the Duchess of Sussex was maneuvering it during a price.
Body language seemed to be a sign of other tensions.
“Prince Harry asked me to issue a kind of declaration in support of the Duchess and I said that I would not do it,” said Chandauka, who said that she did not want the charity to be used as an extension of advertising for the Duke and the Duchess of Sussex.
There were other fights as to whether Prince Harry had disrupted the disturbance by wanting to bring a Netflix television team to a fundraising event.
But sources close to those who have left the charity do not accept this version of the events.
If the charity commission announces that it goes forward with a “case of regulatory compliance”, it will collect evidence on complaints on the management of Sentebale and will decide whether the investigation must be degenerated at the higher level of a statutory investigation.
Ms. Chandauka argued that the charity can continue without its founders and must change its objective to reflect current needs in southern Africa. A friend of Prince Harry says he has the impression that “he had one of his fingers cut”.
