- The Duke of Sussex has rejected "offensive and damaging claims" lodged in the High Court by Sentebale, the charity which he co-founded in memory of his mother, Princess Diana.
- Prince Harry is being sued for defamation by the charity, which alleges he orchestrated an “adverse media campaign” which has caused “operational disruption and reputational harm” to the organisation.
- Mark Dyer, a former trustee of Sentebale, is also named as a defendant in the legal proceedings, with both men denying the allegations.
- Sentebale's board of trustees stated they are seeking the court’s “protection” from the alleged campaign, clarifying that legal costs are covered by external funding.
- The lawsuit follows a previous dispute within the charity, which led to a Charity Commission report criticising all parties for publicising internal disagreements.
