Many were moved by her tales of fighting back against the royal &#8216;machine&#8217;, as well as the hardships she&#8217;d suffered as a divorced, non-white member of the world&#8217;s most famous family.<\/p>\n<p>By June, her popularity was falling as she owned an approval rating of plus six percent.<\/p>\n<p>Her husband&#8217;s excoriating biography Spare was met with backlash on both sides of the Atlantic after it was published in January, but his image has taken less of a blow than his wife as he currently boasts an approval rating of plus 12 percent. The last time the poll was taken, Harry&#8217;s approval rating in the United States fared slightly better and sat at 18 percent.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Prince Harry remains above water among the American public, but his plus six percent approval is a far cry from the plus 38 percent he enjoyed in December<\/p>\n<p>Both Harry and Meghan have struggled to launch their new lives in north America after their public exit from the Royals in January 2020.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And the latest poll, which was conducted among 1,500 US adults between September 3 and September 4, found more Americans dislike Meghan, than they like her, for the first time in five months.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her net approval rating of minus two percent comes after the couple&#8217;s Netflix documentary &#8216;Harry and Meghan&#8217;\u00a0failed to impress many American viewers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Less than a million viewers tuned into the first episode compared to the more than 2.4 million in the UK &#8211; a far less populated nation where the Sussexes are even less popular.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Just days before the show aired, Newsweek published a poll on December 5, 2022, that found Meghan&#8217;s popularity stood at plus 23, while Harry was beloved as he owned an impressive net approval rating of plus 38.<\/p>\n<p>In January, around a week after Harry also published his scandal-filled memoir Spare, Harry dropped a staggering 45 points to minus 7 &#8211; while Meghan fell 36 points to minus 13.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At her lowest point, another poll in February had her at minus 17 &#8211; as Americans had a lower opinion of the former actress than the disgraced Prince Andrew, whose frienndship with serial pedophile Jeffrey Epstein saw Andrew banished from public life.<\/p>\n<p>Harry again tried and failed to find streaming success\u00a0with his latest Netflix show &#8216;Heart of Invictus&#8217;, where his philanthropic efforts with the Invictus Games failed to crack the platform&#8217;s top ten charts following its release on August 30.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Their declining status in the US also saw the couple\u00a0widely mocked after South Park\u00a0parodied their flip-flopping on seeking &#8216;privacy&#8217; in February.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The sketch reportedly sparked fury in the couple&#8217;s household as Meghan was allegedly left &#8216;upset and overwhelmed&#8217; by her depiction in the irreverent cartoon.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

approval rating hovered at plus six percent in June.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the same poll, Harry&#8217;s plus 12 percent rating came from 39 percent of American adults liking him compared to 27 percent having an unfavorable view of the prince.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The outlet says it conducted another study of the semi-royals favor following Meghan&#8217;s high-profile appearance last week at Beyonc\u00e9&#8217;s birthday &#8211; where she linked up with some celebrity pals and hardly shied away from the cameras.<\/p>\n<p>Body language expert Judi James told MailOnline that she &#8216;oozed confidence as a celeb influencer&#8217;, as she looked more than comfortable back in the public eye.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>James said that Prince Harry&#8217;s wife seemingly reverted to her showbusiness roots with &#8216;practiced looks at the camera, Tig-girl poses and confident smiles&#8217; during the star-studded occasion.<\/p>\n<p>Meghan is rumored to be on the brink of a massive commercial relaunch of her Tig blog to rival Gwyneth Paltrow&#8217;s $250million brand Goop.<\/p>\n<p>A return to Instagram is also said to be on the cards &#8211; with experts predicting she could make $1million or more per sponsored post.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her embracing of a new Hollywood lifestyle has led to speculation that she wants to escape Harry&#8217;s pious victim narrative and &#8216;lead with love&#8217;, while he hopes to capitalize on his charitable efforts by being seen as a leading global philanthropist.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a
