The fallout between brothers Prince William and Prince Harry has been incredibly well-documented, from when it initially began with the Duke of Sussex claiming he and his brother were “on different paths” to the latest bombshell following his BBC interview. Despite numerous suggestions of ill-treatment on Harry’s part, a new YouGov poll, which was published on 2 May, has revealed that 46% of Britons think he has been treated “fairly”.

This comes after Harry took part in another blistering interview after he lost a Court of Appeal challenge over his security arrangements while in the UK. During the sit-down, Harry claimed he did “not know how long he [King Charles] has left” and said his father will not speak to him about his security case.

Elsewhere in the YouGov poll, 22% think Prince Harry should be entitled to police protection funded by the state, while 39% think he should get police protection, but only if he pays for it himself, and a final 24% said he should not be entitled to police protection.

Asked “Do you think the Royal Family has been treating Prince Harry fairly or unfairly?” with 46% saying “fairly”, while 23% said “unfairly”, and 31% said they don’t know. The pollsters surveyed 6,020 British adults on April 9, 2025.

The latest stage of the royal feud comes as it was claimed Prince William has “no incentive” to speak to his younger brother as sources claimed there is still a “major trust issue”.

They told the Mirror: “The Duke’s latest decision to speak publicly about his family and the situation he finds himself in will only result in him being further than ever from the reconciliation he now says he wants. At its very heart, for the family, there is a major trust issue when even thinking about speaking to him.”

The new poll results come as Prince Harry will travel to Las Vegas to launch a new youth initiative with the Diana Award. 

While there, he will take part in conversations hosted by Dr Tessy Ojo, the CEO of the Diana Award, the only charity that bears the name of his late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

The event, which takes place on Prince Archie’s sixth birthday, will also see Ms Ojo joined by the President of Global Customer Operations at ServiceNow, Paul Fipps, and two young recipients of the organisation’s Legacy Award: Sikander ‘Sonny’ Khan and Christina Williams.
