Prince Harry's camp is blaming King Charles' letter clarifying the Sussexes' royal status for Uganda's abrupt withdrawal from the 2027 Invictus Games, a move that undercuts the duke's signature charitable project just weeks after his return to Britain.

Uganda's top military commander withdrew his country from Prince Harry's Invictus Games, declaring he would not back anything lacking King Charles III's approval, a pointed rebuke that landed days after the King formally downgraded Harry and Meghan to the status of private citizens. General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, Uganda's military chief and the son of the country's president, announced the withdrawal on X in blunt terms. He framed the decision as a matter of loyalty to the British crown, not to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, whose public break with Buckingham Palace has now cost the international veterans' competition one of its newest member nations. The move is a direct consequence of the widening rift between Harry and the royal…Open

The clip, recorded in 2016 on South Africa's Kaya 959 radio station, shows Mamdani promoting his mother's Disney film Queen of Katwe, and speaking in what critics describe as an exaggerated Ugandan accent sharply at odds with his usual New York cadence. Mamdani, who was born in Uganda but moved to New York City at age seven, told the interviewer he was "from Uganda" and contrasted Ugandan and New York dance culture.
