Body language expert's verdict: Did Harry and Meghan have a spat at Eugenie's wedding?
On Friday, Prince Harry and Meghan joined together with the royal family to watch on as Princess Eugenie married Jack Brooksbank.
And while the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are known for not shying away from public displays of affection, a body language expert has revealed the reason why the couple showed a “less than tactile display”.
Speaking to The Sun's Fabulous Online, body language expert Judi James revealed that Harry and Meghan looked tense as they sat inside St George’s chapel, waiting for the ceremony to begin.
“For some reason Harry looks distracted and fidgety as they wait in the pews, while Meghan sits facing front and looking demure and impervious, with a polite social smile on her face,” Judi said.
“Harry mutters something to Meghan and her eyebrows raise before she turns her head towards him, using what looks like an emphatic gesture with each word of her reply.”
She added: “Meghan looks a little bit like a mother with a naughty kid and she even raises both of her hands in a gesture that could mean slight exasperation.
“Whatever she says she then leans forward to resume her conversation with the guest in the row in front.
“Harry's response is to rub his face, sniff and lick his lips impatiently as he sinks against the side of the chair, looking away.”
Although the cause of the tension between the two is unknown, the couple quickly bounced back and became their normal outgoing selves again.
Judi James explained: “If the pair did have a small disagreement it was soon over because they were back to their normal loving, hand-holding and hugging behaviours once the ceremony was over.”
Harry and Meghan said their vows in the same church earlier this year on May 19.
The Duchess of Sussex wore an elegant navy Givenchy dress to Eugenie’s nuptials, accessorising with a hat by Noel Stewart and Manolo Blahnik heels.
For her big day, Eugenie wore a low-back wedding gown by Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vo, proudly showing her scoliosis scar following surgery when she was 12 years old.
