Native American neighbours of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan are accusing the couple of irrigating their gardens with what they regard as holy water reports The Sun.
The couple’s £11million Californian mansion is reportedly built on land that once belonged to the Chumash tribe.
But tribe leader Eleanor Fishburn, 60, said it should not be used to irrigate their gardens.
She said: “For us, this water is a pure water, a holy water and a ceremonial water.
“As a native population, it is sacred for us and the idea that people in the area are using water from springs to water their gardens is something that doesn’t sit well with us.”
Eleanor, leader of the tribe’s Barbareno- Ventura branch, invited the couple to meet them to discuss alternatives.
She said: “It would be great if they came so we could explain our history and culture and let them know about how sacred the water is to us.
“It would be good to explain to them that if they are using the water to irrigate their garden, they have an alternative choice.”
