Prince Harry is the nation’s most popular royal, that’s according to a YouGov survey.

The Duke of Sussex pips his grandmother, the Queen, to the post, with 77 per cent of people polled saying they liked him. Her Majesty is just behind her grandson, in second place, with 74 per cent favouring the UK’s longest serving monarch.

Harry was described as admirable, likeable, humorous, fun loving and genuine by fans.

So where does Prince Harry’s wife Meghan rank?

The Duchess of Sussex actually comes in as the sixth most popular, with 55 per cent of people polled saying they liked her. Meghan is more popular with women than men, and is seen as attractive, beautiful, confident, charming and charismatic.

Prince Andrew is the UK’s least popular royal, according to YouGov, with only 22 per cent of people polled having a positive opinion of the Duke of York. His daughters Beatrice and Eugenie rank just above him.
