Overview
- YouGov’s latest royal-family tracker, published in late July, found 68% of Britons say King Charles III is doing a good job, the highest score recorded in the series.
- A clear majority of the public—about 64%—support retaining the monarchy and most measures of favourability for the institution have remained stable through Charles’s reign.
- Prince William and Catherine, the Princess of Wales, lead public ratings with roughly 74–76% positive views, and Princess Anne and the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh also score strongly.
- Prince Harry’s favourability rose to 33% after a private reunion with the King during the Sussex family’s UK visit in July, though he remains net-unpopular overall.
- Deep divides persist: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor records only 2% positive support and 92% negative, and voters for Reform UK are more likely than other party supporters to say the King is doing badly.
