usmagazine.com:

Keeping up appearances. Prince Harry appeared to be “trying to protect himself” at King Charles III’s coronation with his guarded body language, an expert exclusively tells Us Weekly.“He hasn’t changed his mindset [toward the family] from anything that I’ve seen,” body language guru Traci Brown says after seeing photos of Harry, 38, putting his hand under his vest upon arrival at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, May 6. “He’s on the same page that he’s always been.

I don’t see any improvements.”The Persuasion Point: Body Language and Speech for Influence author notes that the prince’s demeanor coming into the church showed the “same old patterns” from Harry.

The former military pilot’s “crooked” smile “says contempt,” the expert explains.While the Duke of Sussex, who attended the coronation without wife Meghan Markle, cracked a smile during the ceremony — and with his cousins Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie — overall, his body language hinted at his ongoing tension with the king, 74, and his brother, Prince William.“No one’s deviated from anything.

No one’s patched anything up since we’ve heard from them last,” Brown tells Us, pointing out that the buttoned-up appearances from most of the royals show “they’re going through the motions of what they think they need to do to get King Charles off the ground” as the ruler.Harry, who was seated in the third row of the church on Saturday behind his brother, 40, and sister-in-law, Princess Kate, hasn’t spent much time with the members of his family since he and wife Meghan, 41, stepped down as working members of the royal family in 2020.The couple ultimately settled down in California to raise their two kids: Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 23 months.
