This will be the ultimate gut-punch. Game over.<\/p>\n<p>Following the dramatic implosion of his charity, <a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" title=\"Sentebale\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/sentebale\">Sentebale<\/a>, the subsequent war of words and investigation by the Charity Commission, we were all left thinking that this was as bad as it could get \u2013 but now we\u2019ve just heard that he will be sued by the organisation he set up in his late mother\u2019s name.<\/p>\n<p>He had carried Sentebale with him for almost 20 years; it was the ultimate memorial for him to remember <a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" title=\"Diana, Princess of Wales\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/princess-diana\">Diana<\/a> in a space he called his second home. As he took his first tentative steps into the dizzying world that is being a senior working royal, his motive was clear \u2013 to continue his late mother\u2019s work and make her proud. An honourable and worthy journey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>For many years, Sentebale remained the gold standard for Harry\u2019s image, even after he married Meghan. It was the one project he clung to that remained untainted by his determination to launch bombshells at his family, left, right and centre. It survived his numerous grievances, his self-titled <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/netflix\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\">Netflix<\/a> series and just about every scandal thrown his way. Until it didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Sentebale was about vulnerable children in African countries like Lesotho and Botswana, not the mystical world of palace intrigue. The name itself means &#8220;forget-me-not&#8221;; for him to be sued by the very project he nobly built to keep Diana\u2019s memory alive must feel like a visceral betrayal.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no doubt about it, he will be shocked, in pain, and surely prowling around his Montecito mansion like a caged animal, bitterly working out how something that was so special to him for so long could turn around and be the thing to hurt him.<\/p>\n<p>But how has it come to this? The charity\u2019s chairwoman, Dr Sophie Chandauka, certainly didn\u2019t mince words when she accused the Sussexes of unleashing a damaging media campaign against her. While the Charity Commission\u2019s investigation cleared Harry of &#8220;systemic bullying,&#8221; they didn&#8217;t clear him of poor judgment. They were warned that the \u201cwar of words\u201d that followed had damaged the charity\u2019s reputation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Harry had cited &#8220;untenable&#8221; and &#8220;dictatorial&#8221; leadership of Dr Chandauka; in return, she accused the charity of \u201cpoor governance, weak executive management, abuse of power, bullying, harassment, misogyny, misogynoir\u201d and Harry\u2019s steadfast determination to \u201cplay the victim card\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This is a heartbreaking loss for Harry, but we all know that victimhood has been his main currency for many years. It\u2019s what he has used to fuel his television interviews, book, Netflix series and countless keynote speeches. We all know his grievances; how could we not by this point?<\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit doesn&#8217;t just signal a collapse of trust; it\u2019s a total identity crisis. When your own creation sues you for defamation, you\u2019ve lost more than the narrative &#8211; you\u2019ve lost everything you once stood for. If this case proceeds, it will be the ultimate tragedy played out in the High Court. Given his well-known determination to be the guard at the gates of his mother\u2019s legacy, there really is no greater loss for him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.express.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s not often that I say it, so believe me when I do, but I feel sorry for Prince Harry.
