Americans are becoming increasingly disillusioned with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry due to their constant media presence and perceived lack of meaningful contributions, according to a Royal expert.
Recent popularity polls indicate a decline in support for the Duke and Duchess, suggesting that the Sussex fairy tale might be losing its charm in the United States.
Christine Ross, a renowned Royal expert and host of the Royally Us podcast, attributes this shift in sentiment to the couple’s apparent lack of genuine work and philanthropy.
Previously, Americans fell into three distinct camps when it came to the Sussexes: ardent supporters, staunch critics, and those who remained indifferent.
However, as Ross explains, there has been a noticeable shift towards negativity as Americans have been inundated with Meghan and Harry’s magazine interviews, Netflix series, book releases, and press tours.
The constant drama and perceived absence of tangible contributions have left many feeling fatigued.
Recent polls, especially since the publication of Prince Harry’s tell-all memoir, Spare, have indicated a rapid decline in the couple’s popularity in the United States.
In the aftermath of Spare’s release, Meghan and Harry have remained in the spotlight, becoming targets of mockery by comedians and talk show hosts during prime time.
A recent episode of the popular satirical U.S. TV show, South Park, took aim at the couple.
According to Ross, this episode, titled “The Prince and Princess of Canada,” serves as a telling indicator of the general sentiment towards Meghan and Harry among the American population.
The satirical portrayal of the couple, who bear a striking resemblance to the Duke and Duchess, depicts them embarking on a global privacy tour while demanding to be left alone, even as they make appearances on talk shows.
Not only have they faced relentless ridicule in the media, but polls also show a dwindling patience for the couple among Americans.
In February, a Newsweek poll revealed that Prince Harry’s net approval rating had dropped by 38 points since December, reaching a negative 10.
Similarly, Meghan’s net approval rating, as shown by Redfield and Wilton, plummeted by 40 points to a negative 17.
Now, attention has shifted to King Charles’ upcoming coronation and whether Meghan and Harry will attend.
Although they have received an invitation, negotiations are reportedly underway with Buckingham Palace to determine their role in the event.
It is evident that Americans are growing increasingly disenchanted with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
The constant media presence and perceived lack of meaningful work or philanthropy have eroded support for the couple.
As they continue to face mockery and criticism, their popularity in the United States continues to decline.
The focus now turns to the forthcoming coronation of King Charles, where the attendance and involvement of Meghan and Harry remain uncertain.
