The Princess of Wales has been crowned yet again  the most popular member of the Royal Family, a new poll has revealed.

Princess Kate is liked by more than seven in ten Brits (71 percent) and disliked by a mere 13 percent, gathering a net approval rating of 61 percent, the same score she acquired back in May.

The latest poll by YouGov, which was conducted between August 14 and August 15 and published on August 30, also revealed the future Queen to be popular among all age groups in the country, scoring 41 percent among those aged 18-24, 68 percent with 25 to 49-yeay-olds, 83 percent among those aged 50-65 and a whopping 89 percent with the over 65s.

Meanwhile, her husband, Prince William, failed to snatch the second place, as Princess Anne reigned supreme with 70 percent saying they held a favourable view of her and 13 percent disliking her, thus gathering a net approval rating of 60 percent.

The Prince of Wales was edged out by his aunt, as he gathered a net favourability score of 59 percent, after 73 percent of those surveyed said they liked him and 18 percent said they didn’t.

William remains hugely popular among all age groups in Britain gathering 48 percent among the 18-24s, 71 percent with 25s-49s, 81 percent with 50-65s and 88 percent among those aged 65+.

In comparison, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle continue to be disliked by the British public as they appear to be among the least favourite royals, surpassed only by the Duke of York.

The Duke of Sussex’s overall favourability rating was minus 30, while his wife’s plunged to minus 40.

However, despite her low popularity score among all age groups in the country, the duchess appears to be particularly popular among Britain’s young people (18-24), scoring a net approval rating of +18, just two points below William, who gathered 20 percent.

Harry gathered a score of 10 in this age group, while Princess Anne came second again with 22 percent.

The Princess of Wales remained the most popular royal among youngsters with a net approval rating of 23.

Prince Andrew is the least favourite royal, gathering an overall favourability of minus 82.
