Royal Family: Most people have seen conspiracy theories online - but trust in royals undented, poll shows

Tuesday 19 March 2024 13:59, UK

The royals have hardly been out of the headlines in recent months, as the Princess of Wales has not taken on any official engagements since abdominal surgery in January.
More than half of people in the UK have seen conspiracy theories on social media about why the Princess of Wales is absent from public life, but it hasn't dented trust in the Royal Family, polling for Sky News shows.

The poll, carried out by YouGov, shows 51% of people have seen discussion of theories about her absence online, with 44% saying they have not, while 5% were unsure.

Almost one in ten people (9%) say they trust the Princess of Wales less - but the same number trust her more.
Many more - 68% - say their opinion has not changed in recent months.

The poll was undertaken between 15 - 17 March.
