Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, made a solo appearance on the second day of Wimbledon. The 41-year-old Duchess showed that she no longer requires the presence of her husband, Prince William, at all royal engagements, highlighting her independence within the royal family.
Analyzing her appearance at Wimbledon, body language expert Darren Stanton drew comparisons to the late Princess Diana. Stanton noted that Kate seemed to pay homage to the iconic Princess by choosing an outfit inspired by Diana’s fashion choices.
At the event, Kate wore a mint green Balmain blazer with white lapels, which looked similar to the dress Princess Diana wore to Trooping the Colour in 1988. She completed her outfit by combining the upscale jacket with a white pleated midi skirt, which was a common choice in Diana’s wardrobe.
Stanton also highlighted similarities in body language between Kate and Princess Diana, describing Kate as having an “inner source of force field” just like her late mother-in-law. Despite her status as a senior member of the Royal Family, Kate strives to maintain a connection with normal people and society. Her body language is characterized by openness, often using open-palm gestures, and she exudes grace and poise while walking, reflecting her immense confidence.
The body language expert further noted that Kate’s newfound independence was evident in her willingness to take on engagements without the presence of Prince William.
With her growing confidence and ability to shine in solo appearances, Kate Middleton continues to carve her path within the royal family.
