Prince Harry’s popularity drops to all-time low as fatigue, criticism sets in
Global News
Prince Harry's popularity has dropped once again, after non-stop headlines have emerged ahead of the official release of his memoir, "Spare."
Prince Harry’s favourability has fallen to an all-time low amongst Britons just one day ahead of the official release of his autobiography, Spare, new polling has found.
Close to two-thirds (64 per cent) of Brits now have a negative view of Harry, and only a quarter (26 per cent) view him in a favourable light, the YouGov survey has found.
(YouGov is a British internet-based market research and data analytics firm that conducts polls in the U.K. and beyond.)
This latest poll was conducted Jan. 5 and 6 in the days following a number of bombshell claims Harry made against the British Royal Family, which were reported after bookstores in Spain broke Spare’s embargo date and began selling copies of the book early.
The latest figures show that in just one month, Harry’s positive opinion rating has dropped seven per cent, while his negative opinion rating has increased by five per cent.
The Duke of Sussex claims in the book that he was physically attacked by his brother, Prince William. He also claims he killed 25 Taliban members in Afghanistan, lost his virginity to a bar patron in a field behind a pub, and shared that he was encouraged by his brother and sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, to wear a Nazi costume to a party in 2005.
It appears fatigue for the prince and his recent domination of headlines is settling in. Over the past two days, three interviews have aired — on ITV in the U.K., as well as 60 Minutes and Good Morning America in North America — where Harry has further shared revelations and explanations about the book’s contents.
