It’s been six years since Meghan and Harry tied the knot in a fairytale royal wedding at Windsor that was filled with romance and A-list guests, but one royal expert has claimed that whilst Harry seemed to have some nerves on the big day, Meghan very much did not

When Prince Harry married Meghan Markle in a fairytale royal wedding ceremony in Windsor, millions of people watched across the globe, and for many, it seemed to mark a new chapter in the monarchy’s story – with the promise of change in the air. However, within two years the couple had decided that life as working royals was not for them, and they moved across the Atlantic to start new lives in California.

The couple are now celebrating their sixth wedding anniversary, and one expert looking back at the magical 2018 ceremony that was filled with romance has claimed that whilst Harry seemed a little nervous at the start of the couple’s big day, Meghan seemed confident from the outset.

The expert – body language specialist Darren Stanton, speaking on behalf of Betfair Live Casino – explained that as Harry was seen waiting at the altar for his bride-to-be, accompanied by his brother Prince William he seemed “nervous” but as soon as he locked eyes with Meghan who was “calm and confident” he settled down.

“Harry was feeling nervous on his wedding day. He displayed a few nervous smiles, but they were portraying genuine emotion. He tried to convey confidence, but his nerves took control. When he was waiting at the altar with William, you could see his face flushing, as his cheeks went red. But when Meghan arrived, he was more relaxed and could be more at ease with himself,” the expert explained.

However, the body language specialist who previously worked for Derbyshire police, added that in his view, the bride embodied quite contrasting energy. “Meghan was calm and confident on her wedding day with no nervousness. She was very collected and everything seemed to fall into place as she arrived. She took the lead and had a lot of control. Her posture was aligned, she held her head high and her smiles were fully engaged. These are all signs of feeling at peace and confident about themselves. Meghan puts Harry at his ease.”

The expert went on, explaining their combined body language showed real hope for future happiness: “When Harry first saw Meghan on their wedding day, Harry was blown away. He couldn’t stop smiling and couldn’t stop looking her in the eyes. This shows how real their connection is. As soon as they locked eyes with each other, Harry’s body language relaxes. It shows how connected they are as a couple. It means that when they are together and can be themselves, but also feel comfortable when they have each other by their side.”
