Sometimes, something as simple as a mouth twitch or the aversion of your eyes can tell a body language expert a lot. The same goes for a smile, no matter how big or gentle it may be. According to the Daily Mail, a body language expert has now revealed that Princess Charlotte, the 6-year-old daughter of Kate Middleton and Prince William, smiled at the 31-year-old Princess Beatrice at Prince Philip’s memorial on March 29, which means that the two share a close bond.
As noted by GoodtoKnow, these relationships are paramount in all families, nonetheless the royal family, in which unity is incredibly important. Of course, Prince Harry missing his grandfather’s memorial service may leave him with sorrow or remorse. Meanwhile, other royals are getting closer.
“It was fascinating to see how Beatrice sensed Charlotte’s look in her direction and it suggests the two definitely share a deep bond with each other,” explained expert Darren Stanton (via the Daily Mail). “Charlotte was seen looking over her shoulder to try and catch Beatrice’s eye – almost instantaneously Beatrice smiled.” In fact, Stanton believes that Charlotte was very intentional in her mannerisms. “From her exaggerated and mischievous smile, it’s clear Charlotte thinks a great deal of Beatrice, she wants to have her attention – it suggests the two share a fantastic friendship.”
As noted by the Daily Mail, the two princesses, though they may not see each other every day, have previously shared time together at big events, including Princess Eugenie’s wedding.
