Body Language Expert Claims Prince Harry, Meghan Markle Interview Shows Couple ‘Further Apart’
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle appear to be drifting “further apart,” claims a body language expert who studied the couple’s new interview for CBS News Sunday Morning. They deduced their relationship has a “major change” ahead.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry don’t appear to be in synch
The Mirror spoke to body language expert Judi James, who found a marked difference in how Meghan Markle and Prince Harry carried themselves in contrast to prior taped interviews. The couple sat down with CBS News Sunday Morning to discuss a new initiative aligned with their Archewell Foundation.
The ex-senior royals discussed the online threats facing children with veteran newswoman Jane Pauley. Meghan and Harry have launched a new program called The Parents Network, which aims to support parents and guardians affected by the issue of cybersecurity for kids.
James states, “Their synchronicity and togetherness signals as a power couple suggest some growing maturity as they sit further apart than normal to perhaps promote themselves as individuals united by the cause as well as by their marriage. And by the way, the pace and tone of both speech and movement are so contrasting rather than blending them into one professional unit as they used to do years ago.”
She added, “Meghan’s signals during this clip suggest she’s taking the lead here, using a blend of celebrity charm and concern to create a relationship with their interviewer, making careful segues between their home life and their campaign. She has her arm out as though possibly breaching the gap between herself and Harry by placing her hand on his thigh, although the picture cuts before we can see where the hand actually lands.”
While Meghan took the lead, Harry seemed ‘disengaged,’ says body language expert
Judi James said that while Meghan Markle appeared animated throughout the interview, there appeared times when Prince Harry seemed otherwise. She called him “disengaged.”
“Her engagement with the interviewer is as powerful as Harry’s disengagement signals at the start of this clip while the two women speak,” James reveals. “We see him in the clip gazing off into the distance with a serious facial expression while his wife tells a much more sociable and emotional story.”
“When Harry suddenly and dramatically activates here, it is to interrupt the interviewer,” James adds. “His hands clasp as he does so, almost miming diving into the conversation; his brows are raised to make him look like the expert on his subject, and his chin is raised to reflect that message of authority. [Harry’s] pace is faster and more urgent than Meghan’s sociable tone, and she hides her face by doing a hair preen as she turns to look at him.”
Harry and Meghan’s initiative led to their first joint interview since 2021
The Archewell Foundation shared details regarding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle‘s new initiative. This program, which assists parents of children online, led to the first sit-down joint interview the couple conducted since Oprah Winfrey’s 2021 tell-all about their split from the royal family.
The couple has partnered with The Parents’ Foundation to further assist caregivers in keeping their children safe online. Their initiative reads, “‘No More’” blaming families. ‘No More’ allowing social media companies to prioritize profit over our children’s safety.”
“‘No More’ watching our youth suffer. The time for change is now. And it begins with us,” the statement continues.
The message concludes, “Use your voice. Join our campaign. For our children, for your children, for all children.”
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry reside in Montecito, California. They are parents to two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
