Royal | News - Prince Ricardo De La Cerda
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are more popular than they have been so far this year, as they posted their best approval ratings seen so far in 2023 in the latest round of polling conducted by Redfield & Wilton for Newsweek.
Similar polling was carried out this time last year by the company to coincide with the release of their Netflix documentary series, which lifted the lid on their experiences in the Royal Family.
On December 5, last year, Harry had a net approval rating of plus 38 while Meghan’s was plus 23, with the first part of their series dropping on the streaming service three days later.
Harry’s memoir Spare, which was published in January, saw their approval ratings drop dramatically, leaving the Duke on -7 and the Duchess on -13.
However those figures have now crept back up, in spite of Omid Scobie’s Endgame bringing fresh scandal to the Firm and the Sussexes.
