Kate, Princess of Wales, 41, “lapped up the atmosphere” at the Wimbledon tournament on Tuesday, according to a body language expert.
Speaking on behalf of Betfair Bingo, body language expert Darren Stanton told Express.co.uk: “Kate’s outfit was a slight change from her usual outfit choices.
“I think she’s paying some sort of homage to the fact she’s at Wimbledon, as she wore white and green. The pistachio jacket is a slight switch for her. We often see Kate in bolder colours when she wants to make a statement.
“However, it’s clear she wants to blend in with the crowd at the event, as she took on a more unstated look. Otherwise, she would have worn her usual colours of red or blue, which could have been too striking for the occasion.
“In terms of body language and facial gestures, Kate displayed genuine joy, which is apparent as her whole face is engaged. It’s fairly obvious when somebody is uncomfortable in a situation as their face isn’t engaged.
“In every shot I’ve seen of Kate, she appears to be lapping up the atmosphere and clearly loves being at Wimbledon.”
According to Mr Stanton, Kate showed similar body language to the late Princess Diana.
He explained: “Kate always displays good eye contact with the people that she’s meeting. What comes over from the photos of her today is that she has a great sense of fun, happiness and humour.
“There’s one particular shot, where she is pulling a face jokingly, which shows she is keen to display a sense of normality in her gestures.
“She doesn’t want to be seen as far removed from normal people and society. While she acknowledges that she is a senior member of the Royal Family, Kate isn’t averse to being seen as having a laugh and a joke.
“Kate’s body language is always genuinely open, with plenty of open palm gestures. When Kate walks, she is obviously very graceful and poised, but her posture, shoulder placement and pace also signifies massive confidence.
“Someone who isn’t as confident would likely be walking at a slower pace and looking around for others to take the lead. However, Kate couldn’t be more opposite.
“She is very independent and clearly isn’t afraid to take on any engagement without her husband Prince William. She is very confident now – more so than ever. She has got that inner source of force field that Princess Diana once had.”
Mr Stanton expanded on the weather conditions at Wimbledon and how the Princess’s body language was impacted.
He commented: “At one point, Kate was pictured putting up an umbrella as it began to rain. She wasn’t too proud to move out of the rain and head towards a sheltered area.
“Kate was quite happy to rough it and muck in with the other guests. Again, this proves that she is keen to show herself as a regular person, despite her royal status. There is a complete humbleness and humility to Kate that we don’t often see in some members of the Royal Family.
“Overall, Kate appeared super confident as she attended Wimbledon today. What you find with Kate is that she tends to enjoy putting people at ease. While she did display high levels of self-assurance, she also wanted to blend in with the regular tennis goers, whilst showing genuine emotions of joy and happiness.”
