Kate Middleton's carol service body language shows major change as Prince George 'in charge'

Kate Middleton's body language had changed significantly at the Royal Carols: Together At Christmas service, an expert has revealed. Viewers were excited to see the Princess of Wales at her yearly Together At Christmas carol concert at Westminster Abbey, which was held on December 6, and shown on TV on Christmas Eve following her tough year of health battles and preventative chemotherapy treatment. The royal has only made a few public appearances this year as she focused on her health.
Princess Kate's treatment ended in September, with her family rallying behind her in support. Viewers watched the service as she stepped out in a gorgeous red coat to watch talented musicians perform while fan-favourite celebrities give a few readings. Body language expert Judi James revealed to the Mirror that her 'body language this year contained a subtle shift in dynamic from the year before'.
She said: "Firstly there is the growing lack of any signs of tension, thanks in part to the way her children seem to be becoming increasingly self-sufficient. George is now in charge of his brother's royal rituals and protocol and was seen nudging Louis back in line when he tore past George to greet their host at the Abbey, smoothing his tie as he did so in a way that mirrored his father's own preparational gesture when he is on a meet and greet.
"George was quick to show his younger brother the pecking order rules here, while Kate stood behind them, smiling in pride and in possible relief too, seeing how well Louis reacted now his more playful-in-public years are behind him. Kate no longer seemed to be on constant child watch here and that reflected in her body language at times during the service, when she often adopted a more comfortable way of sitting than her usual straight-backed pose and the way she was also seen showing total immersion and absorption rituals as she listened to the service itself.".
