Prince William has reportedly stepped back out there with a ‘business as usual’ approach on a recent visit, following allegations published in Omid Scobie’s new book.

Prince William has made a huge change regarding his body language as he and the rest of the Royal Family grow weary of the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle drama.

The Prince of Wales appeared happy and “comfortable” on a recent royal engagement in Manchester, in spite of controversial claims made in Omid Scobie’s new biography Endgame, which was published in serial form last week.

Body language analyst Judi James told the Mirror: “If his body language signals here contain any responses to the latest attempts to skewer the royals via some barbed quotes in the Scobie book it’s more like a hint of mild exasperation than any appearance of being genuinely rattled.

“All the Firm should be tired of this game by now but although every missile is missing its mark the overall effect must be wearying.

“Despite this though or perhaps because of it, William looks even more determined than usual to throw himself into his causes and to immerse himself with the people he meets.”

King Charles and Queen Camilla thank four Korean War veterans for their service

Richard Palmer, Daily Express Royal Correspondent:

 
At the end of the three-day visit by President Yoon Suk Yeol and his wife Kim Keon Hee, Charles and Camilla marked the 70th anniversary year of the end of the war between China and Soviet-backed North Korea and UN-supported South Korea.

They met the four Chelsea Pensioners, all in their nineties, in the Marble Corridor at Buckingham Palace shortly after the departure of the President and First Lady, who thanked them at Westminster Abbey on Tuesday for helping to save the country from a Communist takeover.

Peter Fullelove, 90, a veteran of the Black Watch regiment, made the King laugh by discussing his problems as a parachutist finding a clearing in the jungle during operations in another country, Malaya. The monarch had spotted his parachute wings on his red uniform.
“They dropped me in Malaya but the only problem was the bloody trees, you see,” he said. “It brought a smile to his face anyway.”

Prince Louis could miss out on huge event for third time but George and Charlotte can go

Prince Louis is once again set to miss out on the annual royal festive concert at Westminster Abbey, even though his older siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte can go.

Princess Kate’s carol concert has become something of a tradition, having begun just a few years ago.

 

Speaking to the BBC about the relationship between the three royal children and their parents, royal expert Jennie Bond said: “William and Catherine undoubtedly have the same battles so many parents endure, about screen time and sibling squabbles.

“But the children seem to generally get along pretty well, with sporty Charlotte singing and dancing, and being quite cheeky, and Louis a bundle of mischief, probably getting away with a heck of a lot more because he’s the youngest.”

Prince Harry and Meghan ‘tarnished’ Archie and Lilibet returning as working royals

An expert has claimed that Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet could get involved with the Royal Family in the future, but they will be a disadvantage.

Due to them growing up in California, they “wouldn’t know where to start”, according to Kara Kennedy.

Body language expert analyses Prince William’s behaviour on royal engagement

Judi James commented on Prince William’s body language on his trip to Manchester, explaining: “”His skills of projecting humility seem enhanced. For a tall man, he manages to bend or stoop enough to lower his signals of power and status and integrate easily with different groups.

“He is also looking more comfortable in his own skin recently. His body language in the past has often looked slightly shy and awkward but coming out of the other side of the battles with his brother, he seems more mature and confident enough to look comfortable and at ease.”

In Endgame Mr Scobie alleged that Harry and Meghan were not told about Queen Elizabeth’s condition on the day of her death until the last minute, with Harry then reportedly hearing she had passed away while still on board a plane bound for Aberdeen.
