PropertyPrince William and Princess Catherine are no longer the most beloved members of the British royal family. Who surpassed them in popularity? Why is the Swedish Princess Madeleine delaying her return to her homeland for a year? And where in Belgium did the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg find her ceremonial dress for a garden party? This and more came to light in Kingsland this week.


The most popular member of Anne’s family, Meghan’s esteem is at an all-time low

William and Catherine (both 41), the Prince and Princess of Wales, are no longer at the top of the list of Britain’s most beloved royals. They have to give up the top spot in YouGov’s monthly popularity poll to Princess Anne (72).

King Charles’ sister and William’s aunt are among the most diligent members of the royal family due to her large number of official appointments. Last year alone, she made 214 appointments, more than any other family member.

After Anne, William and Catherine, Charles is fourth. His popularity has declined slightly since he took power in September last year.

The popularity of Meghan Markle (41) in the UK is at an all-time low. According to the survey, about seven out of ten Britons have a negative image of the Duchess of Sussex.

Madeleine has not yet returned to Sweden

Swedish Princess Madeleine, 41, the youngest daughter of King Carl Gustav, is postponing her return to her native country until next year. She has lived mainly in the United States for thirteen years.

Earlier this year, the Stockholm court announced that Madeleine would move with her family from Florida to Sweden this summer. She wants her children Leonor (9 years old), Nicholas (8 years old) and Adrian (5 years old) to grow up in Sweden. The move was scheduled for August so her daughters and son could start at their new school after the holidays.

A palace spokesman said Madeleine and her British-American husband Chris O’Neill, 49, have now decided they have little time to arrange everything. Because of the changed plans, the kids will still be attending school in Florida next school year.

She met King’s daughter Chris in New York in 2011, where their first daughter, Leonor, was born in 2014. They also lived in Stockholm and London. In 2018 they moved to Florida.

The royal palace is closed this year
