King Charles seemed to completely let go of his otherwise bashful persona in response to niece Zara Tindall’s exuberant display of love at Windsor Horse Show.
Speaking to Fabulous, body language expert Judi James reflected on glaring differences between the 75-year-old monarch’s response to PDAs before and after return to public duties since cancer diagnosis.
Noting he was “never a man keen on his PDAs,” Judi claimed the King “often seemed allergic to them in the past.”
She explained: “But his illness does appear to have released a more openly emotional side to his body language.
“Here at the races, a day out he adores, the new signals of affection are on display in a glorious way.”
“Zara has always been massively demonstrative with her uncle, throwing some very tactile PDAs on him in her usual spontaneous and exuberant way,” the expert continued.
“Charles has, in the past, responded with body language signals that make him look like a delighted but very passive (or bashful) ‘victim’ of her affectionate displays.
“But here he is fully, openly and fondly reciprocal,” James noted, adding, “He’s generally looking playful and fun.”
