Royal Family Poll Reveals Prince William Beats King Charles

A new statistical survey in the UK revealed that of all the royal family, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor scored the lowest in approval ratings. Meanwhile, opinions changed with other members of the clan.

King Charles Is Doing Okay

When AOL carried an Express article that cited YouGov stats, King Charles wasn’t ranked at the very bottom. However, he has slipped in popularity with the people in the UK. The figures showed that currently he sits at an approval rating of 58 percent of people polled.

The outlet noted that this means the monarch dropped by “four points since the summer and is the lowest level since he ascended to the throne.”

Meanwhile, Queen Camilla only landed 42 percent of royal family watchers on her side. Still, that’s fairly respectable compared to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.

Meghan And Harry

Certainly, it seems that if they hoped their move to the UK from Montecito would change opinions, then Prince Harry and Meghan Markle might be a bit disappointed. The survey showed that “just 29% of Britons have a positive opinion” of the Duke of Sussex.

On the other hand, Meghan ended up with 68% of pollsters seeing her in a negative light. The outlet said that while she is up some points, she still ended up “with the lowest recorded [favorability] by the YouGov tracker to date.”

Beatrice and Eugenie 

With 20 percent of people favoring Meghan, that might seem like bad news. But Prince Harry’s cousin, Eugenie, came in at only a 28 percent positive ranking. Meanwhile, her sister, Beatrice, was one percent higher in approval.

As for Sarah Ferguson, it doesn’t seem that she warranted a mention, but her ex-husband, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, found only 4 percent favorability with the public.

Certainly, royal family fans are seriously opinionated since his escalating scandal related to Jeffrey Epstein and his current investigation into allegedly leaking information during his time as a trade envoy.

Edward And Anne

Prince Edward and Sophie seem to sit in the middle range. They mostly just get on with their lives, carrying out their royal duties without any drama.

Likewise, Princess Anne seems to still be a fan favorite with royal famiy fans, with 68 percent of folks approving of her.

William Tops The Charts

Prince William topped the charts. It seems that Prince William is still popular with the British public despite some rumors that he’s not liked much.

The statistics showed that “the future King has firmly cemented his status at the very top of the royal pecking order, boasting a staggering 74% positive approval rating compared to a mere 18% who view him negatively.”

Catherine, the Princess of Wales, also sits in the highly favored stakes of royal family members, with only 14 percent of people saying they weren’t keen on her. So, she got a 72 percent positive vote.
