Prince Harry is like a cat: apparently he has nine lives. Despite his three-year campaign to become the most privileged victim — after stepping down from the British royal family to focus on a “new charitable entity” and then signing multi-million dollar deals with streaming platforms, not to mention making the last years of his grandmother’s life a living nightmare — the people of America apparently still prefer the whining brat to his brother Prince William, the future king.

According to a new poll by YouGov, Prince Harry was liked by 48 percent of Americans, and disliked by 24 percent during the second quarter of 2023. This gives him a net approval rating of +24. Prince William meanwhile was liked by 43 percent and disliked by 21 percent over the same three-month period, giving him a net approval rating of +22.

[No one ever went broke underestimating the taste of Americans, it seems. That’s something that the Sussexes not only knew but used as a business model. This is depressing, but at least we have Cockburn’s acid wit to enjoy. — Ed]
