PRINCE William’s deep bond with son George will be a relief amid his troubled relationship with Harry, a body language expert has said.
Wills and George, 10, warmed the hearts of England fans across the country despite the devastating 2-1 loss to Spain in last night’s Euro 2024 final.
Heart-warming moment Prince William hugs son George, 10
The father-son duo leapt into the air and pumped their fists as England scored their first goalThe two were seen bonding at the nail-biting match last night, watching the game at the edge of their seats.
Body language expert Judi James has given her detailed analysis of the interactions between the father and son duo.
Judi James said: “These are spontaneous, knee-jerk body language rituals from William and George as they react to the agony and ecstasy that was England’s performance in the finals.”
She claims the two are “two-peas-in-a-pod”, with their shockingly similar reactions.
She continued: “Their intense mirroring is more than just flattering, it’s hero-worship mimicry of a dad by his young son.
“William and George’s peas-in-a-pod behaviours here look subliminal rather than conscious, showing the pair share stronger, deeper bonds of like-minded thinking and reactions.”
GOOD ROLE MODEL
Judi highlighted the deliberate choice of dressing alike, which signifies George’s view of his father as a positive role model.
She said: “The dressing alike is a deliberate mimicry that suggests George sees his dad as a very positive role model.
“Despite being a simple fact, this is a very powerful statement in terms of the continuity of the monarchy.”
She comments on the “suffering” the Prince has endured amidst the ongoing war with younger brother Prince Harry.
Judi said: “William is already suffering from the behaviours of his rogue, rebellious younger brother,
“A sense of empathy, loyalty, and shared goals from the son who will also be replacing him as King one day is important and reassuring to both of them. It is defining them as friends as well as dad and son.”
A CHANGED PRINCE
The body language expert claims Will has changed, he’s evolved past his usual reserved self and loosened up, especially around George.
She added: “William has lost so many body language inhibitions recently.
“His rather stuffy, reserved or shy-looking behaviours have now been replaced by an ability to share his emotions,
“Whether he’s dancing like no-one is looking at a Taylor Swift concert or leaping, roaring or clutching his face in agony as he does here at the England game.”
She said: “George might be partly responsible for this change in behaviour.”
This analysis comes amid discussions about the strained relationship between William and his brother, Harry.
The shared reactions between the father and son were particularly striking.
Judi said: “The pair leap up together with their mouths open and fists clenched in a shared ritual of battleground victory when there is a goal,
“They both clap their hands over the sides of their faces in a self-attack gesture that mimics a desire to hide the expression of loss and weakness from your opponents when Spain score.
“These are primal rituals that show the strongest of bonds and define William and his son, like their chosen ‘uniform’ as a united team.
“After their ‘warrior’ responses though there is also the hugging, which shows shared delight and high levels of affection.”
The tension between the royal brothers has been a hot topic, particularly regarding whether the Sussexes or the Waleses should make the first move to attempt a reconciliation.
Charles Rae, the legendary former royal correspondent spoke to The Sun’s royal editor Matt Wilkinson on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show.
He expressed that he believes it is up to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to make the first move.
But he doubts it would be accepted by William and Catherine due to the extensive history of conflict and public criticism, including the Oprah Winfrey interview, their Netflix show, and Harry’s book Spare.
He said: “I think it is down to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to make the first move.
“Whether or not it would be accepted by William and Catherine, I doubt very much it would be.
“There’s too much water which has gone under that bridge.”
The former correspondent shared his concerns over William.
He said: “William’s got a lot more on his mind right now than repairing the troubles with his own brother. He’s got his wife to look after and his three children.”
He then suggested Meghan to be a “driving force” in why the reconciliation may not happen.
Charles’ comments echo those of another royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams who told The Sun that “petulant” Harry must be the first one to make a move to heal the rift with William.
He added that any rift is “undesirable”, especially when people are battling illness with both King Charles and the Princess of Wales being treated for cancer.
Meanwhile, the Sussex saga continues as William is keeping Princess Kate and his family “well away from Meghan Markle and Prince Harry”.
Elsewhere, a royal expert reveals why it’s ‘obvious’ this explosive feud with Prince William is ‘firmly cemented’ and here to stay.
A timeline of Prince Harry's family feud
IN 2018, the Sun told how “simmering tension
The first hints of friction reportedly came after William was introduced to Meghan when she was staying at Kensington Palace.
Once she’d returned home to Canada, William and Harry sat down for a brother-to-brother chat.
He knew Harry was already head-over-heels for her but it has been claimed he advised him to take it slowly.
The younger prince reportedly didn’t take too kindly to the advice, with one royal source saying he “went mental”.
Then in June 2019 Harry and Meghan officially split off from the charity they shared with William and Kate.
The Royal Foundation will be divided between the Sussexes and Cambridges as the couples focus on their own separate charitable endeavours.
Prince William and Prince Harry first established the Royal Foundation in 2009 before Kate joined two years later shortly after their engagement was announced.
The trio would often appear together at events and the Foundation had huge successes with projects like the Invictus Games for injured veterans and the mental health Heads Together campaign.
The Royal Foundation said the decision was made following the conclusion of a review into its structure – but added both couples will continue to work together in the future.
Harry and Meg were living in close proximity to Kate and Wills within the Kensington Palace estate, but they switched to Frogmore Cottage in Windsor before baby Archie was born.
The move further increased rumours of a fallout.
Harry also hinted in his ITV documentary “Harry and Meghan, An African Journey” that he and his brother had grown apart.
In 2021, Harry and Meghan give their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey where Harry accused his dad of cutting him off financially.
Harry then jetted back to UK to join William in unveiling a statue to their mother Princess Diana in the grounds of Kensington Palace. But sources claimed William didn’t want to attend the memorial amid their ongoing rift.
In 2022, just before their grandmother the Queen died, sources claimed Kate acts as a “peacemaker” between the brothers.
Harry claimed his brother “knocked him to the floor” during an argument about Meghan, in his memoir.
In Spare, Harry said William branded Meghan “rude” and “difficult” during a row.
Harry alleged William “grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and … knocked me to the floor”.
He said he was left with a visible injury to his back following the argument in 2019 at Nottingham Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace, where he was living at the time.
In January this year, Harry flew in to be with Charles after the monarch’s shock cancer diagnosis.
Harry flew back to the US the following day – without seeing Wills.
In May he visited the UK for a three-day visit without seeing King Charles or Prince William.
