Everything royalty says and does in public must be measured, including their body language. Prince William (opens in new tab) and Kate Middleton (opens in new tab) are well aware of this fact and have been meticulous about their body language at official functions for years.

For body language expert Judy James, their slow and steady strategy was a smart one. James told Express (opens in new tab), "Kate and William's public body language has been simmering rather gently since their marriage, but recently there seems to be a subtle peak in their signals of power and confidence, both as a couple and as individuals."

Unlike Prince Charles (opens in new tab) and Princess Diana (opens in new tab) before, and Prince Harry (opens in new tab) and Meghan Markle (opens in new tab) more recently, the Cambridges are not being torn apart by the media to their detriment They have not shown any signs of drama that would be detrimental. Kate was never thrown into the spotlight by the rather prudish William, and for years their comportment has been "bland in a good way"-perfect enough to make them ideal ambassadors for the company, provided Charles and Diana, and Harry and Meghan have embodied," James added, "but not so dramatic or telling as to provide the kind of soap opera narrative that sparked the feeding frenzy that Harry and Meghan claimed they could no longer endure.

For experts, the couple's attitude has evolved recently. She said, "Their cautiousness seems to have paid off, which is reflected in their more relaxed and even tactful demeanor in public." "They also seem to have lost some of the tension caused by Oprah's interview, which spurred William to break a once-in-a-generation habit and answer press questions about racism during the royal visit. Now that they have emerged as a truly successful and impressive royal power couple, signs of tension seem to have evaporated."[9

James also stressed that the Duke and Duchess are a force to be reckoned with, both together and apart. She said, "Like any good team, they work as well individually as they do together, and there are no signs of resentment or fighting for attention when one or the other is playing an important role."
