All hail the prince of slackers!

Prince Harry is New York’s “favorite” member of the British royal family despite turning his back on his duties and writing a tell-all memoir with dirt on his relatives, according to a new survey.

The responsibility-challenged Duke of Sussex — who stepped down from his official role in 2020 but will attend Prince Charles III’s coronation on Saturday — was ranked “most popular” royal  among residents of New York State, according to an online survey of 7,276 Americans.

More than 39% of New Yorkers voted him the most likable royal with Kate Middleton coming in second at 28.6% and Prince William placing third at 24.6%,  according to a survey conducted by the casino information firm BonusFinder.com.

Prince Harry’s wife Meghan Markle, who will not attend the coronation,  placed fourth followed by King Charles III, while Prince Edward ranked at the bottom of the top 10 list, according to the data.

Overall, Prince Harry — who dished on the royal family in his January memoir “Spare” after a bombshell Oprah Winfrey interview in 2021  — was rated the most popular royal across genders and all age demographics.

Meanwhile, Kate Middleton ranked most favorite in other states such as Alaska and Hawaii, where  Prince Harry garnered far fewer votes.

The survey doesn’t note what likability  factors people considered when voting, though fans have praised Harry and Meghan in the past  for “standing in their truth” and “because they are really in love.”

In a controversial move, the couple bucked tradition by “stepping back as senior members” of the royal family in early 2020 — announcing they would  split their time between the UK and North America.

The survey was taken between April 21 and 24 and included a total of 26 royal family members — including lesser-known ones such as Zara Tindall, Princess Beatrice and Prince Michael, all of whom garnered zero votes.
