According to a body language specialist, Prince William’s body language shows that he has “increased in confidence.” Although the Prince of Wales appeared to have picked up King Charles III’s “nervous” movements, the successor to the throne recently came across as more confident.
Following King Charles III, Prince William took the throne.
At Scotland’s Balmoral Castle, Queen Elizabeth II passed away on September 8 from old age. She had ruled for seven decades and was 96 years old.
Her son Charles, the heir, assumed the kingdom immediately. Prince William, the eldest son of King Charles III, now holds the title of Prince of Wales. William’s wife, Kate Middleton, was named the new Princess of Wales. After King Charles, Prince William will become heir to the throne.
Princess Diana, who was married to Prince Charles, had the title of Princess of Wales. Although she referred to herself as the Duchess of Cornwall, Camilla Shand, who wed Charles after Diana, was also technically a Princess of Wales.
Although Prince William is the current heir apparent and Charles is the current king, a body language specialist observed that the two royals lacked confidence.
Previously, Prince William had ‘nervous’ body language akin to King Charles.
Darren Stanton, a body language expert, was a Derbyshire police officer in the past. After appearing on programmes including ITV’s This Morning with Phillip and Holly and the BBC’s The One Show, he earned the nickname “Human Lie Detector” and became a TV and media consultant.
Stanton examined the actions of Prince William and Kate Middleton during their visit to Swansea in September. The body language specialist mentioned William’s apparent adoption of worrying signals from his father, King Charles while speaking on behalf of Betfair Bingo.
According to Stanton, William has improved significantly over the previous few years in terms of his gravitas and degree of confidence. “He used to make motions similar to his father, King Charles, and frequently appeared tense or agitated. He was observed toying with his shirt’s cufflinks during the first engagement with Kate, which Charles often does.
“This is a self-reassurance gesture, which says he wasn’t very confident in the circumstance,” the expert added. Placing his hand inside his jacket is another important action Prince William inherited from his father.
The Prince of Wales has “increased in confidence,” evidenced by his body language.
The expert added that Prince William suddenly became more confident based on his body language. He no longer frequently imitates his father’s anxious conduct, and his motions show new confidence. This rekindled confidence indicates his acceptance of his new position within the royal family.
The number of self-assurance gestures that William used to make is far less common today, according to Stanton. It demonstrates his increased self-assurance and sense of security in his role as Prince of Wales and potential future King.
