Princess Kate and Prince William Remain Popular, While Meghan and Harry Face Ongoing Challenges
According to a recent YouGov survey, Prince William continues to be the most popular royal in Britain, with 74% of people holding a positive opinion of him. Princess Kate Middleton is close behind, with a 71% approval rating, and Princess Anne also scores well at 70%. King Charles enjoys majority support as well, with 59% backing him and 62% saying he is doing a good job.
In sharp contrast, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are still struggling with public opinion. Only 28% of Britons view Prince Harry positively, and Meghan’s popularity is even lower, with just 20% of people expressing a favorable opinion. These numbers haven’t changed much since the previous survey in May, and Meghan’s approval rating remains one of the lowest ever recorded.
The survey also reveals that older Britons tend to have a more positive view of the royal family overall, but this does not extend to Harry and Meghan, who are less favored across most age groups.
Summary
While William and Kate maintain strong support as leading figures in the royal family, Harry and Meghan continue to face significant challenges winning favor with the British public. Their popularity remains notably low, especially compared to other senior royals.
