Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's return to Nottingham on Thursday has sparked an unexpected argument over whether the couple are winning back British support. The couple's appearance drew both warm greetings and online arguments over whether crowd sizes reflected waning or renewed support.
Some reports suggested crowds looked thinner than during their 2017 visit, yet social media users rushed to defend the Sussexes. Many questioned why their turnout was being compared with their royal heyday. The response followed their first joint public engagement since moving back to Britain in August, when well-wishers greeted them with cheers, flowers and selfies.
