The analysis company YouGov named the most popular members of the British royal family. The results of the sociological survey are published on its website. The first place is occupied by Kate Middleton, the wife of the British Crown Prince William. 76 percent of Britons have a good view of her. Prince William himself is in second place with 73 percent. At the same time, he has slightly more haters: 21 percent versus 15 percent for Kate.
Princess Anne, the older sister of King Charles III, also proved unexpectedly popular. 71 percent of Britons like her.
The monarch is loved by 63 percent of his subjects, while 30 percent have a negative opinion of him. Charles is one of the few members of the royal family whose popularity is on the rise, and this trend began long before his coronation.
The British are treating Prince Andrew the worst, who is suspected of raping an underage girl. 86 percent of survey participants said they opposed Andrew.
Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle are disliked by 61 and 64 percent respectively. Judging by YouGov, Harry and Meghan Markle's popularity has suffered since their move to the US and the publication of Harry's memoir.
In 2023, it was reported that members of the British royal family topped the list of the most popular public figures in the United States. The undisputed leader in American sympathy is the eldest son of the British monarch, Prince William. 57 percent of the survey participants admitted that they have a positive attitude towards it. /BGNES
