However, it appears that amidst his upcoming tell-all memoir and Netflix docuseries, the Prince is more famous than expected. According to a survey conducted by WeLoveBrum.co.uk, Prince Harry is the top choice of Royal that Britons would like to have a beer with in their local pub.

The Duke surprisingly beat other senior and working Royals like Prince William, Kate Middleton, King Charles and Queen Consort. Daily Star reported, Kate Middleton was a popular second choice, while the Prince of Wales was third.
