Prince Harry has received an apology from an anti-monarchy pressure group that falsely accused him of mismanaging charity funds.
Republic, which campaigns to abolish the royals, wrote to the Charity Commission in July to complain about how around £300,000 ($420,000) was moved by two charities.
At the time Republic first made the claims, Prince Harry s lawyers threatened the campaigners with the weight of the law.
Prince Harry announces a partnership between Booking.com, SkyScanner, CTrip, TripAdvisor and Visa called Travalyst at A dam Tower on September 03, 2019 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The company was at the center of a regulatory compliance case by the Charity Commission.
Prince Harry s Charity Cleared of Acting Unlawfully but Faces Criticisms

The royal brothers separate organizations were reported to the Charity Commission by anti-Monarchy campaigners last summer.
Pressure group Republic accused the charities of mismanaging close to £300,000 ($420,000).
The allegations related to £145,000 ($205,000) given by Prince William and Kate Middleton s Royal Foundation to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle s Sussex Royal Foundation in 2019.
A further £151,855 was given by the Royal Foundation to Sussex Royal and later transferred to Harry s eco-tourism venture, Travalyst.
Republic had claimed the trustees of the two royal charities had put the relationship between the brothers above the interests of the good causes they serve.
