Huge Slap: Majority of Britons Urge Queen to Ban Harry and Meghan from Royals Forever Ahead of UK Trip

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's announcement of their upcoming trip to the UK has faced significant backlash, as a new poll conducted by Express.co.uk reveals that 96% of Britons do not support their return.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are scheduled to visit the UK and Germany in early September for charity work.

A spokesperson for the couple stated on Monday, August 15, that Prince Harry and Meghan are thrilled to visit several charities close to their hearts during this trip.

Their visit will commence in Manchester on September 5, where they will attend the One Young World Summit.

Meghan, who is a councillor for the organization, is set to deliver a keynote address to young leaders from over 190 countries.

Following this, the Duke and Duchess will travel to Düsseldorf, Germany, on September 6, to participate in the one-year-to-go event for the 2023 Invictus Games.

They will then return to the UK for the WellChild Awards on September 8.

Harry has been a patron of the organization since 2007, and the couple previously attended the awards together in 2019.

Two years ago, Harry and Meghan made the decision to step down from their roles as senior working royals.

They now reside in Montecito, California, where they are raising their two children, Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 1.

However, the recent poll conducted by Express.co.uk indicates that a vast majority of readers, with a total of 30,928 votes, do not support their return to the UK next month.

In fact, 96% of respondents (29,653 people) expressed their disapproval, while only 3% (1,058 people) indicated their support, and 1% (217 people) remained undecided.

The comments section below the article accompanying the poll was flooded with opinions from readers, echoing the sentiment that Harry and Meghan should not return to the UK.

One reader, identified as Jane Waller, stated, “No, they are not welcome.”

Another reader, Winnie Woo, concurred, saying, “No, we don't want them here.

They've made it abundantly clear they do not like the UK.”

Similarly, Casual Carlos wrote, “They should stay away, full stop,” while Jackalanton expressed a complete lack of support for their return, stating, “I don't support their return during their lifetimes, let alone next month.”

Silver12345 hash added, “We don't want them or need them.

Thought they had left to get privacy, so why keep accepting them back?”

Royal expert and author Richard Fitzwilliams weighed in on the matter, suggesting that Harry and Meghan's visit will be challenging due to their public criticism of the royal family, particularly in their interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Fitzwilliams explained that their popularity has significantly declined during this period, with a YouGov poll in May revealing record-low favorability ratings.

Only 32% of respondents viewed Harry positively, while 58% held a negative opinion.

Similarly, Meghan's positive outlook stood at just 23%, while a staggering 63% had a negative view of her.

It is worth noting that Harry and Meghan have made only a few visits to the UK since stepping down from their royal duties.

Their most recent trip was in June to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.

In other news, Meghan Markle has faced backlash following the release of her new podcast, “Archetypes,” featuring tennis star Serena Williams.

The first episode, which delves into female stereotypes, was released on Tuesday.

Serena Williams shared that she postponed expanding her family in order to continue her tennis career, highlighting the lack of time afforded to female athletes compared to their male counterparts.

Royal commentator Angela Evans criticized the Duchess and her podcast on Twitter, accusing Meghan of complaining about how women are held back and portraying themselves as victims.

However, not all responses were negative, as many fans took to social media to express their excitement for the podcast.

One user, shelves247, wrote, “Duchess Meghan Markle's long-awaited #archetypes podcast is here.

I'm so excited.

I don't want to talk about anything else.”

In discussing her new podcast, Meghan stated that it would provide the public with an opportunity to get to know the real her.

As Harry and Meghan prepare for their upcoming visit to the UK, they face significant opposition from the British public, as evident in the recent poll results.

With their popularity waning and public sentiment turning against them, their return may prove to be a challenging endeavor.
