Prince William adopted a "tough guy" swagger just hours after Prince Harry slammed him in the final part of his Netflix documentary, a body language expert has claimed.
The Prince of Wales, along with his children Prince George and Princess Charlotte, were at Westminster Abbey tonight for a Christmas carol concert hosted by the Princess of Wales - and attended by many royals.
The Wales family appearance comes just hours after the explosive second part of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's docuseries dropped on Netflix.
In the final three episodes, Harry told how it was “terrifying” to have his brother, now the Prince of Wales, shout and scream at him at the Sandringham summit during the Megxit crisis.

Harry also accused his brother’s office Kensington Palace of trading negative stories, saying it was “heart-breaking” to see something he and William promised would they would “never ever do” taking place.
Other revelations included Harry saying he told his father, now the King, that he and Meghan were willing to relinquish their Sussex titles if a move to Canada did not work out.
He described how “people” were upset that Meghan was “‘stealing the limelight’ or doing the job better than the person who is born to do this”.

But despite this body language expert Judi James said William made two gestures that showed his "tough guy swagger".
She told the Mirror: "It is so sweet to watch Kate walking out to host her husband and two of her children when they arrive in their car. She stands waiting as the doors are opened and there is a moment of what looks like excitement as they all pour out.
"The group form a solid-looking line-up to walk in together, with Kate firmly in the lead as host of the event.
"William holds onto Charlotte’s hand but although Kate allows her hand to hang close to George’s she seems aware that he might prefer to walk in without holding on, although he receives a gently guiding hand on the back from Kate.

"Kate looks excited to show her children the decorations at the event but the stand-out feature is how George mimics his father’s walk as they go into the venue. Both seem to walk with a bit of a Mike Tindall-style tough-guy swagger, with arms down at their sides and smiles on their faces."
Meanwhile Judi also notes that Kate too showed signs of determination and resilience as she arrived at the Abbey alone first amid the new Netflix claims.
She added: "Kate uses three signals of determination and resilience as she emerges alone from her car here.

"There is the flicking of her hair back to sweep away from her face on the right side, which is a signal of confidence as she makes sure that her face is totally visible to the cameras as she walks into the venue. Tossing your hair about is always a sign of bravado and an intention to be strong and hold your head up high.
"She also walks with a wide stride. This is a hard trick to pull of in high heeled court shoes, which again suggests a determination to look resilient and determined.
"She carries her gloves and her clutch bag in one hand to allow the other to hang free at her side.

"There is one moment when she appears to try to take the bag in both hands, which could form a wary-looking, self-protective barrier ritual, but she seems to self-police this gesture quickly, dropping her hand as though remembering she intends to project confidence."
Kate, dressed in an elegant deep red coat dress with matching shoes and clutch bag, greeted clergy at the door of the abbey before going inside where she chatted with guests and enthusiastically high-fived children.
She met and thanked those taking part in the service, including Paddington star Hugh Bonneville and singer Melanie C.
She also chatted with Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice before coming back out to welcome her husband and two children, who arrived before 5pm.
More than 1,800 people are gathering in the abbey for the concert, staged to recognise the “selfless efforts of individuals, families and communities across the UK, and celebrate and showcase the joy that human connection and togetherness can bring”.
Kensington Palace said the second carol service Kate has held is dedicated to the late Queen and the values she demonstrated throughout her life, including “duty, empathy, faith, service, kindness, compassion and support for others”.
The palace said these principles are “shared and personified by the inspirational guests who have been invited to the abbey in recognition of their tireless work to help and care for those around them”.
A Christmas tree in the abbey is decorated with small Paddington Bear decorations, a nod to the late Queen’s famous sketch, while guests were greeted with atmospheric snowflakes from a snow machine as they arrived at the entrance.
