PR Disasters ….part 7

[AtIusvue]

Meg and Harry PR shenanigans

If they settle…it will have to be for millions…as that’s how much they could probably prove they’ve lost.

Oh I hope they don’t settle, even if Sentebale did lose, we would finally get the uncensored version of how entitled Harry operates.

So the boot is on the other foot. Wonder how Harry will be feeling about that? 🤔

I guess it’s taken the spotlight off the looming disastrous Oz trip for a minute, wonder if it was purposely leaked now, it was filed 4 weeks ago.

I mean surely all advice would be to settle? …but he’s a meathead/dragon slayer…I can’t imagine him taking sensible advice. Head first into another disastrous court case 😂

No comments allowed on the DM which means you know Harry’s lawyers were all over it. Love how much this will be costing him, even at this stage

I may well be wrong, @Atlusvue, but thought they always suspended comments while a case is live - as in not prejudicing the outcome and all that?

It'll be interesting to learn the details of what he's actually being sued for, but after his own several failures in court the irony's delicious

I guess it’s taken the spotlight off the looming disastrous Oz trip for a minute, wonder if it was purposely leaked now, it was filed 4 weeks ago

Edited to add that's interesting too, @Thedom. I hadn't realised the filing was a while ago, so you do have to wonder about the timing

Even for civil cases with no jury ?

I have no idea…Im just gleefully thinking of him throwing all that money on lawyers fees 😂

Wonder how do Invictus, particularly their ex employees, feel about it ? does the big cloud over Harry’s integrity bring Invictus into disrepute by their connection to him ? They must be having a few crises meetings at the moment.

I'm not an expert in what can be said whilst cases are live but I suspect until H's last case is settled the DM will be playing it very safe indeed.

Good point about it being a civil case, @Atlusvue; as suggested I'm not certain either way, but the charge of contempt of court is there for a reason

It is fairly standard not to comment on ongoing court matters, other than to report them.

Statement by Sentabale’s Board:

10 April 2026, LONDON, UK
Sentebale has commenced legal proceedings in the High Court of England and Wales. The charity seeks the court’s intervention, protection, and restitution following a coordinated adverse media campaign conducted since 25 March 2025 that has caused operational disruption and reputational harm to the charity, its leadership, and its strategic partners.
The proceedings have been brought against Prince Harry and Mark Dyer, identified through evidence as the architects of that adverse media campaign, which has had significant viral impact and triggered an onslaught of cyber-bullying directed at the charity and its leadership.
Sentebale has experienced the adverse media campaign as false narratives circulated through the media about the charity and its leadership, attempts to undermine its relationships with staff, existing and prospective partners, and the forced diversion of leadership time and resources into managing a reputational crisis not of the charity’s making.
Sentebale’s development sector funders have maintained 100% of their financial commitment throughout this period, and the charity has been deeply moved by the continued generosity of individual donors who have stood firm alongside them. The commitment of our partners and donors reflects a shared conviction that good governance is fundamental to the integrity of any charitable organisation, and their faith in the continued work of the charity. It is also a reflection of the resolve of the Board and the teams in Lesotho and Botswana who have remained resilient and focused on the work in the face of sustained pressure.
At a time when international aid is contracting and the needs of children across Southern Africa are growing, the work Sentebale delivers for 78,000 young lives is increasingly critical. The charity should not continue to use its resources to manage and address the damage this adverse media campaign has caused to its operations and partnerships. This must stop. The Board and Executive Director have taken this legal action to secure that protection. The costs of doing so are met entirely by external funding and no charitable funds have been used.
The Board and Executive Director trust that those who believe in Sentebale’s mission will understand why this legal action, whilst difficult, was necessary and important, and will continue to stand with us as we focus on the work ahead.
Sentebale’s focus remains where it has always been: the children and young people of Lesotho and Botswana.
Sentebale does not intend to comment further on this matter while legal proceedings are ongoing.
Issued by the Board of Trustees and Executive Director of Sentebale

Guess this is not surprising, it’s been obvious this is how he operates, against his family, his detractors and now looks like also his ex charity, who appear to have the proof and are prepared to take action.

The proceedings have been brought against Prince Harry and Mark Dyer, identified through evidence as the architects of that adverse media campaign, which has had significant viral impact and triggered an onslaught of cyber-bullying directed at the charity and its leadership.

Cyberbullying!
The poster boy for on-line safety being accused of cyberbullying!
Wonder how Mark Dyer is feeling today (and how deep his pockets are).

Thank you for posting this, Serenster!

I'm gonna go back and read the rest of it now - just had to stop at "cyberbullying".

Don't we all love Dr Sophie!

Two questions

who is funding the Sentebale case?

what is the evidence- is it from Harry’s own mouth or is there a leak showing him orchestrating anything himself ( media campaign / cyber bullying)

the way he crashed out and tried to burn the charity on his way out was quite disgusting ( a bit like his exit from the royal family)
I hope the case has legs

Maybe Harry has finally met someone who can answer back.

You know it's not even the money that will hurt the most - it will be the fact that someone has stood up to him and have followed through on something - especially a charity connected with his mother's legacy . I imagine he has exploded with anger.

"The proceedings have been brought against Prince Harry and Mark Dyer, identified through evidence as the architects of that adverse media campaign"

Thank you for the link, @Serenster

In the ANL case, Harry accused a lot of people of a lot of things without any reported proof, whereas the organisation now sueing him claim they do have evidence of a media campaign against them

On the face of things it appears Harry's use of spite may have caught up with him, but the above is certainly another irony

I seem to remember Dr Sophie comes from an extremely wealthy family who were large donors to the charity. She herself was head of risk management for meta (FB, insta etc) and Morgan Stanley. This is a very powerful lady and will have backing.
I bet Mark Dwyer is shitting himself as he doesn't have the bank of pa to bail him out. They waged a very public war against her, I doubt they considered a corporate lawyer keeping all receipts, she had to come off social media due to abuse and threats, she is probably laughing her arse off. Posh boys used to getting away with everything.

And yes - again it is a woman !

Where will the Princess find time to return to acting? They spend their days giving ‘a source close to the family’ stories to the press, rearranging their plans, organising strategic leaks to distract from other stories, going to charity events all over the world. They seem really really busy! And that’s on top of being a hands-on mom.

It’s all over the media now, from different news organisations.

Hon Doc Chandauka has the evidence, it’s been obvious from the start.

He’s going to be facing more costs.

My first question to him would be all about his known propensity for blatantly lying, including under oath.

My comments from the other thread -

Sensible, I think, that the statement comes from the board and CEO, not the chair, and confirms that the legal action will not use charitable funding. There is still the risk that this is seen as a further example of an interpersonal disagreement between Harry and Dr Chandauka, and a risk to the charity's reputation from that perspective.

Isn't it difficult to be successful in a defamation case?

A 😲 a, 😲. My Kingdom for a 😲 reaction.

This is too funny. Everything that I find funny about them, is directly linked to their decisions and behaviours, so I feel no guilt.

The litigation could be being funded by external funders, who will invest in claims that have good prospects of success. Burford Capital, Therium Capital Management and Harbour Litigation Funding are among the most reputable.

Obviously, if you are successful, the funder takes a cut of the damages over and above their out-of-pocket costs. The funded claimant buys an insurance policy that will pay their costs if the claim is ultimately not successful.

So Sentebale is suing Harry and Mark, not Sophie? can someone please clarify.
