Do you know what Duchess
Kate and Prince William’s holiday body language says about them?
Whether the Cambridges are travelling abroad on a royal tour or relaxing on a
family trip, the couple are sending us secret signals about their
personalities, according to leading body language expert Judi James.
New research from Hotels.com finds
we’re a nation of sun seekers with over 56% going abroad specifically for a tan
– but can the same be said for Kate and William? Pouring over photos from
the Cambridges’ recent trip to the Caribbean to their first official engagement
in Australia, Judi explains the “six different sunbathing types”.
Is Duchess Kate a ‘Sunbed Space Invader’ or perhaps a ‘Fidgeter’ who gets
easily bored lying in the sun? Keep reading to find out…
Judi considers the fact that
Kate has a naturally relaxed disposition, but with three very energetic small
children “she may get less time for her natural relaxed state than she
would like.”
With this in mind, Judi
explains: “She may find it hard to lie out and switch off for more
than a few minutes before feeling impelled to sit up and check everything is
ok. This would be based on wariness rather than boredom.”

Kate’s natural disposition vs being a busy mother
Opposites really do attract,
it seems. “William’s overall body poses, with his weight on one leg and
his hands on his hips suggest a capacity for switching off when possible, as
well as the kind of confidence that would lead to several self-rewarding
behaviours, if and when he finally did have time to hit the beach.”

William’s pose provides a major clue
Together, Judi adds that
Wiliam and Kate’s body language proves that they cherish their couple’s time on
holiday. “Free time that is not spent with the children on a family
holiday would probably be at a premium for William, so I would see him making
the most of it when it does come around.”

Kate and William’s posture suggests that opposites attract
The contrast between William’s
subconscious body language on holiday versus formal events is striking. She
says: “His body language rituals at more formal royal events can suggest
some ongoing levels of social shyness and a hint of anxiety, but when he
is in the role of Dad or husband, he seems able to switch off and have
fun.”
