The British pollster YouGov revealed these data, highlighting that both Meghan and Prince Andrew are the least appreciated members of the population. Meghan and Prince Harry's decision to step down from royal duties in 2020 has been a determining factor in this low popularity.
British tabloids have pointed to the Duchess of Sussex as being responsible for pushing Prince Harry to separate from his family, which has generated tensions in the monarchy. Critical Voices Report.
The death of Queen Elizabeth with the sadness of seeing her grandson estranged from her has aggravated the negative perception towards the former actress. Furthermore, the controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, where Meghan spoke openly about sensitive topics such as racism and family problems, contributed to worsening her image among the British public.
