Prince Harry left her wife Meghan Markle in shock with his unexpected move as he pushed the Duchess away in his reunion with Prince William and Princess Kate at the royal family’s most difficult time.
The ‘Fab Four’ reunited during a walkabout in Windsor following the sad demise of Queen Elizabeth in September 2022. An expert has analysed the footage of the two royal couple’s reunion.
Discussing the momenton his YouTube channel Royal Rogue, body language expert Jesús Enrique Rosas said that at one point Harry appeared to “push his wife away from William and Catherine” in one of the most “spectacular displays of body language” they have ever seen.
They were getting ready to leave in the car, with Harry showing Meghan to her seat, however there appeared to be a mix-up and he initially tried to guide the Duchess to the passenger seat occupied by Princess Kate.
It was at this moment that the Duke of Sussex stepped behind his wife and placed his hands on her waist as if to gently encourage her to move past William.
However, according to some,Meghan was protected by Harry during the tense moments as they were meeting with grieving crowds in their first close meeting since the 2021 Oprah Winfrey interview.
The expert also provided insight about Kate’s appearance, saying: “It was obvious that despite how uncomfortable Catherine could be, she managed to slay. She nailed the way one should behave when you find yourself in a situation in which you need to share the stage with others.
“Meghan was nervous, looking in Catherine’s direction, and Meghan’s left hand – was at least, for a split second – covering her chest. Catherine was walking tall with her hands relaxed and her chin really up.”
He also shared her analyisis on Kate’s confidence during the much-hyped reunion, explaining: “I have seen Catherine walking a thousand times and she usually doesn’t have her chin that high up – in some scenarios, it could be read as arrogance, but in this case, it was more like… she was showing who was in charge.
“Despite what was being requested of William and Catherine in this moment, they behaved in the most diplomatic and polite way, and that is the ability that some people have, that is part of emotional intelligence.”
