A bitter pill for Harry — Kate is now most popular royal in U.S.

Did Prince Harry intend to damage William and Kate with the publication of Spare? if so, he will be gratified to know he has succeeded.

An ipsos Mori poll this week reveals both the Prince and Princess of Wales’s popularity in the UK has fallen: William’s by eight percentage points, Kate’s by seven.

But sweet revenge comes at a devastating price. For the same poll shows that Harry’s popularity has also fallen — along with that of Meghan — and that both of them are now viewed negatively by more than half of the country.

Pampered as they are in the California sunshine, perhaps they don’t care if we Brits abhor the way he has treated his own family and trashed the Crown for financial gain.

After all, this odious exercise in exorcising his demons led to 3.2 million copies of Spare selling worldwide in just one week. But as they drool over the sales, what neither can ignore is the growing opprobrium in their own back yard.

A Newsweek poll this week reveals that their approval ratings have nose-dived in America. in december, before Spare came out, Harry’s rating was +38 while Meghan’s was +23. Today, Harry gets -7 and Megs -13. Newsweek concludes from the poll that ‘after his book publicity

indeed, collapsed it so much that Meghan is now less liked in the States than Queen Camilla — a devastating verdict given that Americans canonised Princess diana and demonised the mistress who destroyed her marriage.

But it gets even worse. Not only is Meghan more likely to be viewed negatively than positively today by other women, the couple’s approval rating has fallen among the 18 to 24 year-olds to whom they most pander. Even snowflakes don’t like people who freeze out their own families.

What a bitter pill it must be for Harry to swallow that Kate is now the most popular royal in America. And William is still the most popular in Britain.

Only a man as stupid and narcissistic as Harry could ever have believed his venge-fest would endear him to anyone. it has now spectacularly backfired and, most disastrously for him, damaged his ‘ perfect, perfect, perfect’ wife Meghan.
