As a student at Eton College, Prince Harry was involved in a cheating investigation. According to The Guardian, his former art teacher, Sarah Forsyth, claimed that she’d authored text to accompany an art project that the prince had submitted for his A-levels. This project was key to earning his place at Sandhurst, where Harry trained as a military officer, according to Us Weekly. Forsyth — who was fired in 2002 — consequently sued Eton for her unfair dismissal, and stated in her hearing that the head of the art department had asked her to help Harry with his project.
Forsyth had a tape to back up her accusations, in which Harry could be heard saying, “It was a tiny, tiny bit. I did about a sentence of it” (via CBS News). This quote was in regards to the work that Prince Harry did on the art project, but a spokesperson for King Charles argued that it was taken out of context. “The tape … contains barely audible half-sentences, and it appears to have been edited,” he said. “It is also difficult to tell what Harry is saying and what he is referring to, due to the poor quality of the recording and the disjointed nature of the tape. The fact remains [that] Harry did not cheat.” Prince Harry did not comment much on the scandal, and simply alluded to “things people get accused of” in his 21st birthday message (via The Guardian).
