In the pensioner age group, 70 per cent chose William and Kate and only 2 per cent chose Harry and Meghan. But the younger generations were more split as 13 per cent of 18 to 24-year-olds chose the Sussexes.
Professor and pollster Matt Goodwin said: ‘When it comes to the ongoing feud between the younger members of the Royal Family, there is no doubt whatsoever that William and Catherine, the Prince and Princess of Wales, are seen by a majority of the country as best representing the values of Britain.
‘Unfortunately for Harry and Meghan, they are barely on the radar.’ Just 22 per cent of those polled had a positive view of Harry and Meghan.
