Telling change to Prince Harry's behaviour when he's with Meghan Markle, claims expert

Prince Harry seemed "far more content" when spotted with a "reassuring" Meghan last night, than when seen without her in recent months, according to a body language expert.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex delighted fans when they made a surprise visit to an LA Lakers basketball game last night at the Crypto.com Arena in downtown LA.

They were projected onto the big screen in front of a crowd of 20,000, who were there to watch the match against the Memphis Grizzlies and cheered when they saw the royal pair.

A clip shared on social media shows Harry appearing to lean towards her for a kiss. She then laughs and stops him by grabbing his arm affectionately before he pulls a silly face.

Body language expert Darren Stanton said the pair looked "‘like any other couple in love" and explains how much more relaxed Harry seemed than he has done on other occasions alone this year.

"Compared to previous appearances we’ve seen of Harry in recent months, he appears far more content, with previous signs of anxiousness he’d show nowhere to be seen here.

“Meghan appears to be a source of comfort and reassurance for Harry and it’s clear to see the admiration she has from him, with Meghan showing a glimpse of this as she laughed at her husband’s confident and humorous display, pulling him in closer to her."

Darren, who was speaking on behalf of Betfair, said Meghan looked "quite relaxed" throughout the evening.

"She’s leaning forward and smiling - a genuine smile. We see Harry speaking to somebody next to him, leaning in towards them which is a sign of interest. He then leans the other way into Meghan, bringing his face close to hers, which demonstrates the level of rapport and ease they have around each other.

"They’re very comfortable in each other’s proximal zones, with Meghan reciprocating this as she smiles at Harry and reaches out for his arm. It shows that the pair are comfortable to be out and about together in public and very happy in each other’s company."

Other celebrities at the game included Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner and Adam Sandler.
