An 'extraordinary' new survey suggests that the Duchess of Sussex's latest interview and her new podcast episode were huge hits in the US. Despite claims that Meghan is dropping out of favour with Americans as news publications start to focus more on her sister-in-law, two-thirds of Americans who took part in the survey said they thought more favourably of Meghan since both her interview and podcast went live.
This shift in popularity comes despite Meghan's controversial comments that were made during her interview with The Cut Magazine and during the second instalment of her podcast, Archetypes. The Mirror reports that the 41-year-old Duchess caused a stir following her interview as she compared herself to the late Nelson Mandela.
Speaking to The Cut, Meghan claimed that South Africans 'danced in the street' after she married Prince Harry, just like they did when 'Mandela was freed from prison'. The former actress also alleged that she had to be given approval from The Firm for everything she posted on social media, and was forced to continue royal engagements despite a fire breaking out in Archie's nursery.
