Meghan Markle's approval rating has plummeted after launching the major Sussex rebrand alongside Prince Harry.
Meanwhile, the Duke of Sussex's US popularity has almost matched Prince William and Princess Kate's popularity, according to a new poll.
When Prince Harry published Spare in January 2023 the couple were received quite negatively, however, their net approval ratings were in positive numbers by December 2023.
Harry, 39, and Meghan, 42, have since attempted a major rebrand, which included launching their new website, Sussex.com, and announcing a new podcast with streaming platform Lemonada at the beginning of this year.

The new podcast follows Meghan's Archetypes, which was released on Spotify to mixed reviews. In June 2023, the Sussexes were dropped from the streaming platform after Archetypes left executives underwhelmed.
Redfield & Wilton polled 1,500 adults on their view of the Royal Family earlier this month.
Despite attempting the Sussex rebrand, Meghan was liked by 31 percent and disliked by 30 percent, meaning her net approval was plus one.
This was a significant drop from December prior to sussex.com's launch, when the Duchess of Sussex was on a plus 15.
The mother-of-two has subsequently experienced a decline in support, as she was liked by 45 percent of pollsters in December.
