Prince Harry appeared protective of Meghan Markle during their first UK engagement since moving to the Cotswolds, according to a body language expert.

Prince Harry appeared protective of Meghan Markle during their first engagement back in the UK following their move to the Cotswolds, according to body language expert Darren Stanton. The couple attended an event at The Community Recording Studio in Nottingham.

Stanton, speaking to Betfair Casino, observed that Harry's physical gestures were 'clear reassuring gestures' designed to make Meghan feel comfortable and supported. He noted that Harry held her hand tightly, placed his arm around her, and stayed close until he felt secure enough to engage with crowds himself. Stanton said Harry would glance back to check on Meghan throughout the engagement.

Meghan, however, appeared entirely confident and self-assured. Stanton observed that she was 'very good at working the crowd', engaging people effectively and bending forward to meet their eye line to make interactions feel more personal and approachable.
