Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have made a name for themselves since stepping down from the Royal Family, but it seems their popularity is waning amid recent controversy
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been urged to reconsider reuniting with the Royal Family as their popularity in America seems to be dropping.
The couple moved to Montecito, California, after stepping down as senior working royals in 2020. Since then, they’ve been caught in a bitter feud with the Royal Family, who they’re now estranged from.
While the Sussexes have made a name for themselves since moving to the US, working with brands such as Netflix and Spotify, it seems their popularity is plummeting amid recent controversy over Harry’s recent ESPY Award win. A recent poll found that almost four out of 10 Americans thought it was wrong for the Duke of Sussex to have been given the honor.
Amid the controversy, PR expert Ryan McCormick has offered some advice to Harry and Meghan if they hope to improve their popularity. Speaking exclusively to The Mirror US, he said: “Based on the disastrous response Harry received from recent the ESPY Awards, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for him and Meghan to lay low for a while.
“The duo should regroup and rethink their strategy before doing any future high profile engagements in the US.” His comments come after Harry was slammed for receiving the Pat Tillman Award for Service at the ESPY Awards.
Pat Tillman’s mom has even admitted she was “shocked” that a “controversial” figure like Harry would be getting the award. Mary spoke about the nomination and said she hadn’t been consulted over the Duke of Sussex receiving the award in her late son’s name.
“I am shocked as to why they would select such a controversial and divisive individual to receive the award,” she said. Speaking to the Daily Mail, Mary added: “There are recipients that are far more fitting. There are individuals working in the veteran community that are doing tremendous things to assist veterans.”
Following her comments, polling agency Redfield and Wilton conducted a survey of 1,500 Americans, which found 38% of people echoing Mary’s comments. Only 21% supported Harry, while the other 41% said they “didn’t know”.
