Kate Middleton is 'more confident' after Prince Harry's memoir and 'unfazed' by drama

Kate Middleton is "unfazed" by Prince Harry's cutting memoir as she beamed in a confident solo royal engagement.

The Princess of Wales was seen high-fiving pupils during a visit to a nursery school in Luton, Bedfordshire.

Kate looked sensational in a vibrant red turtleneck top and skirt that flowed down to her ankles.

She added a black belt around her waist and let her dark curls fall over her shoulders as she played beside the children.

Her visit was in line with the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, which she set up in 2021.

Kate appeared to be unaffected by the backlash that has come from her brother-in-law's scathing memoir.

Studying her nursery visit, body language and behavioral expert Darren Stanton said that she came across "extremely confident".

After teaming up with Betfair Bingo, Darren said: “I don’t believe the release of Prince Harry ’s new book has had a profound effect on Kate. From her body language, she appears totally at ease and isn’t showing any signs of distress or frustration. In fact, she’s even more confident as usual."

"When someone is nervous, their voice pitch tends to go up or crack. However, while analysing videos of Kate from the day, her voice was completely on the same level, which denotes confidence.

"Her posture appeared open and her eye contact was consistent with the non-verbal signals of a very confident person. She seemed very comfortable in her surroundings and her own skin.

"While some people may expect them to be fazed, it’s business as usual for Kate and William!"

The Prince and Princess of Wales were in the firing line in Harry's book Spare, after he claimed that they both fell out with his wife Meghan Markle.

Harry also claimed that William described Meghan as "difficult" and "rude".

"I don't think they were ever expecting me to get into a relationship with someone like Meghan, who had, you know, a very successful career.

"There was a lot of stereotyping that was happening, that I was guilty of as well at the beginning," Harry said.

"The fact that I had that in the back of my mind, and some of the things that my brother and sister-in-law, the way they were acting or behaving, definitely felt to me as though unfortunately that stereotyping was causing a bit of a barrier to welcoming her in."

Harry revealed that he, Meghan, William and Kate had a meeting to "clear the air" after Kate got upset with Meghan who made a comment about her pregnancy.

Meghan had joked that Kate had "baby brain", and it didn't go down well with the Princess.

Harry wrote that during the meeting, Kate gripped the edges of her chair "so tightly that her fingers were white" and William scorned Meghan and told her "that's not what's done in Britain."
