Meghan Markle falls behind Prince Harry in latest US popularity poll

Meghan Markle may have been a United States princess, but it's her British prince whom people love the most.

According to a new poll by Newsweek, Prince Harry, is marginally more popular than his wife

The survey was taken with 1,500 adults and their sentiments about the former royals recorded that 33% of people surveyed reported that they disapproved of Meghan Markle, while 31% said the opposite.

That gives an overall net approval rating of -2, according to the outlet, The "Suits" alum is now down eight points since the media outlet's last royal poll, which was conducted back in June.

The Youngsters for Markle; the Boomers against

Meanwhile, The Duke of Sussex, on the other hand, was generally liked by 39% of respondents and disliked by 27%. However, Harry has also taken a dip in fan popularity since June, when he was +18; now, he has a net positive approval rating of +12.

Newsweek reported that Markle appears to be most popular among 18- to 26-year-olds, who gave her an overall rating of +19. Baby Boomers, however, ages 57 to 75, rated him a -7.

Like his wife, the prince is most popular among Generation X'ers with a rating of +17. The popularity poll came just a few days before Queen Elizabeth II's death anniversary.

Prince Harry went back in London for only a few days

While the Duke of Sussex was heading to the Germany 2023 Invictus games, Prince Harry visited London to be physically present to celebrate QEII's passing and had an opportunity to be at the WellChild Awards.

While at the event he delivered a speech remembering the late queen "As you know, I was unable to attend the awards last year because my grandmother passed away, as you probably also know, she would have been the first person to insist that I still come and be with you all instead of going with her. And that's precisely why I know that, exactly one year later, she's looking down on all of us tonight, happy that we're together and still highlighting such an incredible community," he mentioned.
