Meghan Markle will take plunging popularity in the UK with ‘a pinch of salt’, and will focus on success in her ‘own country’ instead, claims expert

According to a recent survey, Meghan Markle’s popularity in the UK is on the decline – but she’s likely to take the news with a ‘pinch of salt’, claims an expert.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been named the fourth most disliked celebrities of 2024 in a new Ranker poll released at the start of the week. Ranker compiles surveys based on public opinion, reports the Mirror.

The Sussexes – who are facing fresh reports they were welcomed to Nigeria last week by a fugitive who allegedly orchestrated a $20million money laundering and bank fraud scheme – join James Corden and Amber Heard on the ‘most hated celebrities’ list.

However, according to Press Box PR spokesperson, Lynn Carratt, Meghan, 42, is likely to be unworried by the low ranking as she would rather focus on success in her native US.

She told the publication: ‘I believe Meghan will take the survey data with a pinch of salt. I’m not sure how interested she is anymore in getting the British public back on her side.

‘She is American and that is were her family life is now, so she will be more concerned in raising her popularity in her own country and focusing on building her brand American Rivera Orchard and making it a huge success’.

According to the publication, out of 31,400 Brits a whopping 65 per cent disliked the Duchess, while 45 per cent expressed negative views about her.

Conversely Meghan attracted only 4 per cent of positive votes.It appears the expert is suggesting Meghan would rather pour her efforts into growing her lifestyle cooking brand American Riviera Orchard, which is likely to keep her in good favour across the pond.

The mother-of-two launched the luxury lifestyle brand – which has so far produced a special strawberry jam – with a glitzy Instagram video back in March.

The Duchess’s project is said to have been in the works for more than a year – and will feature ‘all the things that are close to her heart’.

The flash company is set to coincide with the launch of a new cookery show featuring Meghan on Netflix – where she will be making and selling her own products. It will lead onto a book and blog to go alongside her cookery displays.

It is ununderstood that a trademark application has been made covering cutlery – knives forks spoons – cookbooks and electronic cookbooks, coffee, jams jellies and butters.

It also extends to a physical shop from which tableware, mugs, jams, tablecloths and recipe books could be sold.The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been named the fourth most-disliked celebrities of 2024 in a new Ranker poll (pictured: the couple visit the Armed Forces Complex in Abuja, Nigeria on May 11)

The Duchess launched the first product from the new business a month later, sending influencers and friends a jar of strawberry jam.

Fashion designer Tracy Robbins and Argentine socialite Delfina Balquier are among those who have posted an image of the product on their Instagram Stories.

Mrs Robbins and her husband Paramount boss Brian Robbins are friends with the Sussexes and invited them to the Bob Marley film premiere in Jamaica in January.

The couple are also friends with Ms Balquier, who is married to Prince Harry’s friend Nacho Figueras – with the four together at a charity polo match in Florida in April.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are likely to brush off news that they’re disliked as they did back in 2022 when they topped the list of most annoying celebrities.

Two years ago the couple were branded celebrities people were most likely to get sick of – just weeks after the release of their splashy, multimillion-dollar Netflix special that criticized the royal family.

The couple – whose high-profile split from the royal family dominated headlines in 2020 – each snagged a spot on Ranker’s ‘Celebrities You’re Sick of in 2022′, with the Duchess of Sussex leading the list of figures readers had reportedly grown weary of.

The dubious distinctions for the duo is markedly more pronounced than where they placed earlier in the year, when Meghan was booked as low as the 20th spot, while her husband, faring slightly better, was pegged at no. 23.

Names to round out the top top ten included Oprah Winfrey – whose interview of the couple in 2021 saw Meghan claim royals had ‘concern’ over her sons’ skin color – as well as Amber Heard, James Corden, Kim Kardashian and several other polarizing personalities.

That said, in a list that, unlike the Sussexes, also included stars who saw their reputations come into question this year – such as Kanye West and Ellen DeGeneres – the Sussex squad was still featured the most prominently.

the Ranker article indicated that Meghan – an actress who starred on USA’s Suits – received a total of 24,201 votes out of the more than 416,000 votes cast. Voting is tabulated in real time.

Harry, on the other hand, received an almost stark 21,492 votes – both serving as more than five percent of the nearly half a million votes received.
