The Bottom 3
The publication reported that the Queen’s children, grandchildren and married-in royals – Prince Andrew, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry – are the three least trusted members of the Royal Family.
Prince Andrew
The Duke of York came in last on the list with only 2% of the sample population trusting him. 89% outright rejected to trust the duke after his sex assault scandal, while 9% were unable to form an opinion on him.
Meghan Markle
Second to last on the list– The Duchess of Sussex– is only trusted by 12% of people who participated in the survey. 76% of people claimed that they don’t trust the actress-turned-royal at all, while 12% were indecisive on their decision.
Prince Harry
Surprisingly or not so surprisingly, Prince Harry is the third least favourite Royal Family member, according to the result of the Poll. 30% of people trusted him, while 59% had their doubts and 11% couldn’t make a decision.
How accurate is it?
According to the survey, Her Majesty topped the chart with 90% of people trusting her and Prince William came in second with 83% trusting him. This is more than Prince Charles, who has only 57% of people put their faith in him.
While the survey showed results that may translate and make sense to anyone keeping up with the Royal Family, it may still be a little problematic in its essence. The polling firm conducted the survey with merely 1630 people, which is a rather small group of people to base the results on. With a wider audience and more diverse sample population, the results may have varied to an extent that the least 3 trusted members may just be changed.
