PRINCE Harry's charity boss has been accused of “playing the race card” after she claimed she was“bullied”.

Sentebale's Dr Sophie Chandauka had accused Harry of “harassment and bullying at scale” after he and other trustees quit the charity last week.

But now a source close to the trustees has claimed Dr Chandauka alleged racism when she realised “things were not going her way”, The Telegraph reported.

A source told the newspaper: “She's definitely playing the race card and openly.

“This is her plan. As soon as anyone turns against her, she brings the race card in and she comes for you.

“She's a very poisonous woman and it's very sad it's come to this.”

The source also said Dr Chandauka allegedly accused the trustees of bullying when challenged over losing a major sponsor.

The dispute is said to have centred on the annual Sentebale polo cup, which is a key fundraising event for the charity.

It comes as Dr Chandauka shut down her social media after she was trolled by “Sussex Squad” backers of the Duke and wife Meghan.

She was subjected to racial abuse and wild conspiracy theories.

Others branded her a “fraud jumping on a bandwagon of hate” in series of offensive messages.

A user with “TeamSussex” in their profile used a racist term to denounceDr Chandauka.

A totally unfounded dig bizarrely claimed she was paid by William and Kate to discredit Harry, 40, and Meghan, 43.

A Sentebale spokesman said: “Dr Chandauka deleted her Twitter account due to the proliferation of online bullying.”

She had accused Harry of “harassment and bullying at scale”; after he and other trustees quit the charity last week.

He created it in 2006 to continue mum Diana’s work helping people in southern Africa living with HIV and Aids.

Trustees recently hit out at the way the charity's finances were managed.

Sentebale was in financial trouble despite getting £1.2million from Harry from the proceeds of his bookSpare.

The Charity Commission is probing claims that £500,000 went on consultants to source wealthy US donors — a move which flopped.

Defending Harry, pal Alex Rayner said: “He is beyond heartbroken and flabbergasted that the charity he founded as a teenager has been taken hostage by the chair.

“It feels tantamount to a hostile takeover.”;

Meanwhile, Meghan treated fans to a video of her dancing as she made jam.
