Kate Middleton has recently returned to her royal duties, but is always well accompanied on each of her trips. This Sunday, November 10, she went to the Remembrance Sunday ceremony.
She was to go there alongside Queen Camilla, but the latter is currently recovering from a lung infection, and was therefore unable to attend. Exceptionally, it was the Duchess of Edinburgh, Sophie, who stood alongside Kate Middleton, with whom she has always been very close. She is even nicknamed “the royal sister“ of the wife of Prince William.
Great support for Kate Middleton
Initially, Sophie was due to stand on a balcony next to the Princess of Wales with the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, but was instead present at her side to support her, in the absence of Queen Camilla. The evening before, Kate attended, alongside her husband, the Royal Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall, in a perfectly thought out and controlled black look.
The Princess of Wales has always been surrounded, but even more so since her return. The fact that the Duchess of Edinburgh exceptionally abandoned the balcony on which she was to be placed to accompany her proves this once again, and has given her the support she needs. But, in addition to that, a body language expert analyzed Sophie's behavior, and deduced a very touching observation.
Sophie's subliminal message sent to Prince William
Body language expert Judi James said that even though William and Kate weren't standing together today, they were still connected in one way or another. She explained to Mirror magazine: “Sophie was clearly in the role of temporary replacement for William. She chatted with Kate on the balcony as the two women stood side by side and despite Kate's impeccable appearance of confidence as she stood in the spot that once belonged to the late queen, Sophie seemed to keep a watchful eye on her as Anne clearly kept an eye on her brother Charles“.
She also noticed a gesture which, according to her, sent a message to William :
“It was the little touch or even pat on the back as Kate walked ahead inside the building that seemed to not only offer some form of motherly affection, attention and reassurance or even congratulations to her step-daughter. niece, but it also felt like visible proof to William that Kate is in very safe and caring royal hands when he's not there by her side“,
she declared.
