Charity CEO Faces Online Abuse from Prince Harry Fans

Accusations and Abuse

The charity chief who accused Prince Harry of harassment has shut down her social media after she was trolled by "Sussex Squad" backers of the Duke and wife Meghan. Sentebale’s Dr Sophie Chandauka was subjected to racial abuse and wild conspiracy theories. Others branded her a "fraud jumping on a bandwagon of hate" in series of offensive messages.

Online Bullying

A user with "TeamSussex" in their profile used a racist term to denounce Dr Chandauka. A totally unfounded dig bizarrely claimed she was paid by William and Kate to discredit Harry and Meghan.

Charity Controversy

She had accused Harry of "harassment and bullying at scale" after he and other trustees quit the charity last week. Sentebale was in financial trouble despite getting £1.2million from Harry from the proceeds of his book Spare. The Charity Commission is probing claims that £500,000 went on consultants to source wealthy US donors — a move which flopped.

Support for Harry

Defending Harry, pal Alex Rayner said: "He is beyond heartbroken and flabbergasted that the charity he founded as a teenager has been taken hostage by the chair. It feels tantamount to a hostile takeover."
