Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s popularity, reportedly, dropped after they decided to quit The Firm.
The result of the recent YouGov poll revealed that the couple’s popularity significantly dropped. But their fans are convinced that Prince Harry and Markle don’t mind.
After all, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are, reportedly, living their best lives in California. One royal fan also said that Markle doesn’t care because the most important thing for her is that she’s free.
Another royal fan said that Prince Harry and Markle shouldn’t even be included in YouGov poll’s about the royal family because they quit a long time ago. And the couple also gave up their royal status in April.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are now considered as private individuals, who have their own jobs and charity. And they are no longer connected to the royal family.
Another royal fan also urged YouGov to stop creating polls about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. After all, the couple has already moved on from their royal life and they should too.
In January, Prince Harry shocked the world when he released a statement announcing his decision to quit The Firm. During a private dinner for Sentebale, Prince Harry admitted that he’s sad to quit The Firm. But he also said that it came to a point where he felt that he didn’t have any other option.
Authors Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand detailed in the book, Finding Freedom, how Prince Harry and Markle struggled to survive as senior royals. They said that the couple felt that the things that they wanted to do weren’t prioritized because more focus and opportunities were given to Prince William and Kate Middleton.
In the book Battle of Brothers, royal author Robert Lacey said that Prince Harry and Prince William’s relationship became even more strained after Markle entered the picture.
While speaking with The Sun, Lacey also told Dan Wootton that he doesn’t think that siblings’ feud will completely heal. The author said that Prince Harry doesn’t like how he always needs to play second to Prince William just because the latter is the heir and he’s the spare.
Lacey also said that Prince William and Middleton must have disliked how Prince Harry and Markle overshadowed them for over a year before they had Archie. He also said that a lot of people didn’t like Markle and her American style so she and Prince Harry felt that it’s best if they just stay away.
