Britain’s charities’ regulator on Wednesday cleared Prince Harry of bullying, harassment and sexism at the charity he co-founded, following a monthslong dispute with the head of the organization that spilled out into the open. Sophie Chandauka, the chair of the organization, made a series of allegations against Harry, against Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, his co-founder, and against the board of trustees after they resigned in March. She accused them of “abuse of power, bullying, harassment, misogyny and misogynoir,” a term that refers to sexism toward Black women. The former trustees also reported their concerns to the Charity Commission, the independent watchdog that oversees charities in England and Wales. The dispute erupted into a public relations crisis and the commission opened an investigation into the accusations.
