Meghan Markle and royal sisters lag behind Prince Harry in UK popularity poll

A YouGov poll conducted between July 21 and July 22 surveyed 2,063 adults in the United Kingdom. The poll found that 33% of respondents held a positive view of Prince Harry, compared with 30% for Princess Beatrice and 29% for Princess Eugenie. Negative views were recorded at 58% for Harry and 34% for both Beatrice and Eugenie, while a large share of respondents (around 36‑37%) said they did not know how they felt about the sisters.

Meghan Markle received the lowest approval rating among the royals mentioned, with only 22% of respondents expressing a positive view. The poll also showed that Prince Andrew, the sisters' father, had a mere 2% positive rating. A separate Mirror readers' poll echoed these findings, confirming Meghan's continued low popularity in Britain despite recent royal visits.

Overall, the data places Prince Harry ahead of his cousins and sister-in-law in public favor, highlighting persistent challenges for the younger members of the British royal family in gaining public support.
