Prince William is the heir to the throne, but his younger brother, Prince Harry, is more popular than him. The Duke of Sussex reportedly sells more newspapers and is the new Princess Diana.

Prince William Only Second To Prince Harry In Popularity

Prince William will be the future king after his father, Prince Charles. His younger brother, Prince Harry, grew up as his spare. However, the public prefers the younger royal.

Private investigator Gavin Burrows spoke with BBC for its documentary The Princes And The Press. He admitted that there was much greater interest in the Duke of Sussex than his older brother, the Duke of Cambridge, when he was working for the now-defunct News of the World in 2000.
