King Charles and Prince Harry have revealed their inner emotions with unusual body language at the coronation, an expert has said. The King, who is known to carry his own fountain pen for when he is frequently called on to sign visitors’ books during royal visits, grimaced when he screwed the top back on the pen after signing the Oath during the coronation service.
When he signed documents during his first Privy Council meeting in September, Charles generated comments on social media when he gestured for an ornate pen holder to be taken away by an aide.
Later it was back in place, after privy councillors used its pens to sign documents, but Charles once again took offence to the item, when called upon to give his signature, and pulled a face before it was removed again.
