Are William & Kate More Popular Than Barack & Michelle?
International appeal
Without doubt, both these popular couples have a massive international appeal. But Prince William and Kate Middleton have a slight edge due to their international travels to fulfill their royal duties. From joining Canada Day celebrations to giving medals to Irish Guards, the royal couple has generated quite an international buzz. Michelle and Barack Obama too have a strong international appeal. They’ve traveled across the globe on official visits. Michelle Obama is very popular for her efforts to support homeless people, advocating military families and taking part in legislative activities.
Whom do we pick?
Looking at the above numbers, facts and popularity levels of the royal couple of UK and 1st couple of the USA, we think it is fair to say that the royal couple has generated a greater buzz in terms of media coverage. However, without doubt, Barack and Michelle Obama have built a strong foundation for themselves domestically and internationally because of which their popularity levels will only grow higher. We also note that Barack and Michelle Obama do not have a royal lineage nor were they already in the media limelight before their presidential victory. Maybe this couple will gain the edge and be more popular as they will be under the watchful eye of the media in the coming years? That’s what we think. What about you?
