Meghan, admired by 19 percent of young adults, was the second most admired royal among that same age group.

Meghan’s seemingly bad favor could be linked to the seemingly outlandish claims she makes in interviews.
Most recent, The times revealed that Meghan believed she would be the ‘Beyoncé of the UK’ when she married Harry.
The newspaper, in a report published Sunday, attributed the claim to Valentine Low’s forthcoming book Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown.
Royal insiders have claimed the Duchess believed she would become Britain’s Beyoncé after marrying the Queen’s grandson – but was disillusioned with the strict protocols and rules of life as a working member of the Royal Family and felt increasingly ‘ cornered and misunderstood” by The Firm.
The book also included allegations that the Queen had been forced to set her foot above Megxit and told the Sussexes they were “either in or out” at the crunch Sandringham summit where the royals decided Harry and Meghan’s future.

The latest accusation follows Meghan’s controversial interview with The Cut last month, in which she claimed that she and Harry “just by existing” “disrupted the dynamics of the hierarchy” before stepping down as senior working royals.
In that same publication, Meghan said it takes “a lot of effort” to forgive and hinted that she can “say anything,” in what was seen by some as a thinly veiled threat to the royal family.
She also said she was compared to South African hero Nelson Mandela when she married Harry.
She claimed to be a South African cast member of the 2019 movie The Lion King told her that “they rejoiced in the streets as we did when Mandela was released from prison.”
The Duchess did not name the cast member. However, an actor who says he is the only South African in a live-action Disney film claimed he had never met Meghan.
In addition, The Cut interview claimed that Meghan claimed that Harry had “lost” his father, King Charles III, during Megxit.
Meghan told the magazine: “Harry said to me, ‘I lost my father in this process.’ It doesn’t have to be the same for them as it is for me, but that’s his decision.’
The pair’s allies later clarified that the Duchess had actually referred to the breakdown of her relationship with her own father.
Meghan’s unofficial spokesperson Omid Scobie wrote on social media: “I understand Prince Harry is actually referring to Meghan’s loss of her own father, and Meghan says she doesn’t want Harry to lose his.”
