Prince Harry suffers fresh blow as senior staffer quits in troubling exodus

Prince Harry has lost another member of staff as the CEO of his African children’s charity has stepped down.

In 2006, the Duke of Sussex co-founded the charity Sentebale with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho. Recently, it’s been reported that major changes have taken place at the organisation, and now, London-based Richard Miller has quit as chief executive after five years in the role.

It comes as Harry was forced to address divorce rumours after continuous speculation that the Sussexes are close to calling it quits. In recent weeks, Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have made a string of telling solo appearances with reports of a ‘professional split’ in their careers.

It comes as Harry was forced to address divorce rumours after continuous speculation that the Sussexes are close to calling it quits. In recent weeks, Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have made a string of telling solo appearances with reports of a ‘professional split’ in their careers.

During a New York appearance, Harry was asked how he navigates the intense public scrutiny that comes with fame, and he said it’s “definitely not a good thing”. He said: “We’ve apparently divorced maybe 10, 12 times as well”, adding that he just “ignores it” and feels most sorry for the online trolls.

Now, Sentebale has said Miller will be replaced by an interim executive director, Carmel Gaillard, who is based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Harry and Seeiso said in a joint statement: “This shift reflects our continued commitment to being guided by voices from within the region we serve.”

They added: “We sincerely thank Richard for his pivotal role in steering our organisation toward this important evolution.” Miller said in his own statement: “It is the logical next step for Sentebale, and the time is right for this shift to local leadership. Carmel is an incredible asset to position Sentebale further as a leader in the region.”

It comes a month after Andrew Tucker, whom Harry affectionally calls ‘Tucks’, stepped back from his senior position at Sentebale, according to Mail Online. It was also reported that Baroness Chalker, the charity’s overseas development minister, left his position as director last month.

In recent years, Harry and Meghan have gained something of a reputation for being unable to hang on to employees as they forge ahead with their charitable and production ventures outside the Firm.

In August, it was reported that Harry’s chief of staff, Josh Kettler, left his role after just three months. It is understood Mr Kettler, a high-flying PR executive, was hired on a trial basis and the decision to part ways was mutual, with both sides agreeing it was not the correct fit.

After Harry and Meghan wed in May 2018, the couple saw a string of staff changes with several leaving their posts. Among those leaving were senior communications secretary Katrina McKeever, Meghan’s personal assistant Melissa Toubati, a female royal protection officer and their assistant private secretary Amy Pickerill.
