Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are even more unpopular with the British public according to a new poll.
A January 2024 poll by Ipsos shows that both the Duke and the Duchess of Sussex have plunged in popularity.
Almost half - 47 per cent - of British adults have an unfavourable opinion towards Prince Harry while only 23 per cent are favourable, which is a seven per cent drop.
Meghan has a 54 per cent unfavourable rating with only 18 per cent of respondents holding a positive opinion of her.

This is a drop of five per cent and the lowest rating in five years for the duchess.
The survey asked British adults online between the age of 18 to 75 about their opinions toward different members of the Royal Family.
The question stated: “How favourable or unfavourable are your opinions of each of the following members of the British Royal Family.”
In March 2018, two months before Meghan married Prince Harry, the duchess held a 40 per cent positive rating by the public.
