Body language expert Darren Stanton has analysed Kate Middleton and Prince William's appearance at Wimbledon today and reveals how the Royal couple aren't afraid to be themselves during public outings.
Darren shares how Kate and William were in 'complete unison' when it came to their behaviour as they watched all the action unfold on Centre Court from the Royal box.
Speaking on behalf of Slingo, Darren said: “Attending Wimbledon, Prince William was seen sporting his trademark suit, while Kate opted for a striking blue dress with polka dots - again, ringing true to her power colours, red and blue, that she tends to adopt for a certain type of events. When she is happy for the attention to be focused on herself and William, she’ll opt for one of her power colours, otherwise Kate makes sure to keep her outfit choices neutral in order to divert attention to where it is more appropriately suited.
“She and William are a pair that appear so connected on a deeper level that they don’t need to be showing continuous signs of reciprocal liking - like tactileness or prolonged eye contact - during public outings to prove they have a deep connection. It is noticeably visible without the need for the couple to indulge in overzealous PDAs and is testament to why Kate and William have the confidence to attend events as individuals as much as they do as a couple. For instance, Kate, walking across the bridge as she arrived to the grounds, displayed the same level of confidence solo as she did when sat alongside William in the stands.
“Keen tennis fans, it’s clear to see that both Kate and William are invested in the action on court as they watched a game on Centre Court. It’s interesting, as the couple were in complete unison with their behaviour while spectating - during a tense moment on court, Kate was seen anxiously tucking her hair behind her ears as William pulled an expression of tension. At times, we also saw Kate smiling broadly with enjoyment - she has become known for always displaying genuine emotion and Wimbledon was no different. Her smiles were sincere and her whole face was engaged as she soaked up the atmosphere.
“As always an outing on such a public scale sees Kate and William setting the scene and a precedent for how things are to be for when William becomes King. They are two individuals who aren’t afraid to be themselves while still upholding their Royal duties graciously and as best they possibly can.”
