Kate Middleton, Prince William ‘Authentically Happy,’ ‘Subconscious Mirroring’ Still Intense After 8 Years

Kate Middleton and Prince William have been married for eight years. And even though their marriage is far from perfect, it seems that they have maintained a certain level of intensity when it comes to their relationship.

This week, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge embarked on their first and most complex tour of Pakistan. While there, photos of the royal couple were published online. And body language expert Judi James analyzed them.

While speaking with Express, James said that the photo of Middleton and Prince William proves that they are authentically happy to be with each other. Their relationship also seems very healthy and at its best state.

In one of the snaps, Prince William and Middleton are laughing together, and they also seemed quite affectionate towards each other. The couple’s inside jokes and humor prove that other than being husband and wife, they are also good friends.

“Their subconscious mirroring is as intense as it was in the early days of their marriage, showing a like-minded approach and sense of purpose. Their ‘pinging’ smiles and laughter suggest they feed off one another in terms of both support and fun,” James said.

But by the looks of it, the royal couple’s body language has also changed within the past year. In October 2018, James said that Middleton has seemingly become more confident after the birth of Prince Louis.

Prince William, on the other hand, couldn’t be happier to have Middleton by his side again after her six-month maternity leave.

“Kate positively strides from the car and her torso and arm movements tell a similar story of confidence and energy. The pair always look happy and loving but usually in a non-tactile way… This tendency to touch in public seems to be a new trait for them… It could be a signal of delighted parenthood but it might also have been prompted by the very tactile displays from Harry and Meghan,” she told Express.
