According to a Washington-based British royal expert, the royal couple Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle are losing support from the American public for their relentless attacks on the royal family. Nile Gardiner, a foreign policy expert and royal family enthusiast, praised Prince William and Kate’s recent visit to America, while noting that he believes Americans are quickly turning against Prince Harry and Meghan. People who enjoyed reading Prince Harry’s memoir _Spare_ and turned it into the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time are hate-reading it now. A new poll from Newsweek shows that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have lost significant favor in the United States, whose population tends to admire people who stand up to stodgy institutions like the British monarchy and appreciate celebrities who open up about their personal struggles. The experts believe that the allegations made by Harry and Meghan in the Netflix docuseries _Harry & Meghan_ and his book Spare are all based on assumptions. Gardiner is a big fan of the royal family and that his comments are his own beliefs based on what he interprets from the Netflix series. For example, he says that in one sequence in the series, Meghan jokes a bit about the first time she met Queen Elizabeth II and Harry had asked her to bow in front of her grandmother. In the Netflix docuseries, _Harry & Meghan_ we see the Duchess of Sussex making fun of the royal courtesy. This war declared by Harry and Meghan against the royal family, started with the Oprah interview. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been living in the United States for some time now, especially after they shocked the British royal world with their interview on Oprah Winfrey’s show, in which they made several accusations against the royal family in March 2021. Looks like we can never get over Harry and Meghan. The royal international drama doesn’t seem to come to an end. The public interest in the royal family and it’s dirty secrets continues. Starting from bearing with the pain of being a lifetime spare to Prince William to Meghan Markle being hamulated for being a mixed race, the royal saga continues. In fact, a complete declaration of war has been made by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle against the whole royal family, according to The Daily Mirror’s Royal Editor Russell Myers. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have recently come under widespread scrutiny after they levelled a series of allegations at the royal family and specific members within. Harry and Meghan walked away from the royal palace because they wanted a family and not an institution. Harry and Meghan made several bombshell claims in a recent Netflix docuseries,  _Harry & Meghan_. And with Prince Harry also releasing his memoir ‘Spare’ and conducing a number of television interviews. “There can be no mistake that this is a complete declaration of war by  Harry and  Meghan against the whole royal family,”  Myers told Sky News Australia. Gardiner insists on the differences between Harry’s brother William and his wife Kate: “There is a huge difference in the grace of William and Kate compared to the deeply unpleasant vanity of Meghan and Harry. They are polar opposites in terms of how they conduct themselves on the world stage.” (With added inputs from agencies) Read all the  Latest News,  Trending News,  Cricket News,  Bollywood News,  India News and  Entertainment News here.
