Is that bad? I guess it doesn't make one look particularly mature, but I tend to hold my husband's hand when I'm anxious. He loves me and supports me and his presence is soothing.

It’s not “bad” but it also isn’t a sign she and Harry are more “in love” as some PP’s are trying to argue. It just means William and Catherine are more comfortable and confidant at public appearances. Catherine has been at this a long time now and doesn’t need to hold her husband’s hand for reassurance.

This.

William and Kate have a job to do, and they both just do it.

Harry and Meghan were clearly uncomfortable and physically leaning on each other. That’s fine. Or, they strategically opt to cling to each other for photos like this. That’s fine too I guess.

My takeaway from all the photos I saw was Meghan’s eyes were often focused on Will and Kate. Not sure why, but it was noticeable.

I'm curious as well. I didn't think any of them were inappropriate. They are grieving, what did people expect to see? The ladies sobbing in their husband's arms?

I'll say it again. One of these women is an actress, the other one has been essentially "trained" to be a royal. That explains their differences to me. I feel like Kate has been told to act formal and stiff and not let off any emotions, whereas Meghan has been taught to do the total opposite - show her feelings, express her emotions, etc.

Also one of them has known the queen for 20 years, the other has met her a handful of times.

Discussing the Queen on ABC This Week w/ Stephanopolous.

Donna Brazile gave a good perspective.

Okay. I do think that Kate’s body language suggested she was upset but I don’t necessarily think it means the marriage is on the rocks or something.

I know that Kate is far more into decorum and I certainly don’t dislike her but her body language was very different here than it has been in the past.

Look at beginning of this clip, where she and William arrive at a memorial for victims of Manchester terrorist attack. (Unless you have something better to do with your time )

Kate looked mad and from what I understand the royal family isn’t into emotion. I don’t think it was inappropriate, but I could imagine some expert in royal etiquette saying it was.

Of course lots of people and the British press love Kate so they will either say it was fine or make an excuse for it.

British mourning practices, especially formal ones, are far different from American ones. Stunning ignorance on this board.

The Cambridges and Sussexs came in the same car. OMG.

Wow, that was awesome! Thanks for posting that. Things do change.

What’s most noteworthy to me in this video is the coolness between William and Kate. There does not appear to be any love between them.

There is love. It’s just tradition with his position.

Tradition is showing up with your spouse. William went to the Queen’s death bed alone, watched the proclamation of Charles as King alone and attended the accession council alone. Now they show up looking more like distanct cousins, and not the married kind, than attentive partners.

It is what it is.

There is no such tradition, however people with high EQ don’t show up at the death bed of a great grandmother in law. They allow a handful of the closest family to be there.

Sophie was there though.

Question how much time do you think Kate and the kids spent with the queen? Actually with the queen and interacting with her? She did not do it with Charles.

kate has known queen for more than two decades.

Since she was a teen fresher at St Andrew’s.

She had a crush on William since she was 9 and a young William turned her head when his team played a hockey match at her school.

And?? I’m their age and I had a crush on William as did most other girls that had eyes. He was darling!

Serious? He’s been homely ever since he was a preteen. Young 20s military Harry, however, was hot as hell.

Wrong, there was a period when he was in college when he was hot.

This isn’t some soap opera put on to entertain you. These are real people with real emotions. What’s wrong with you?

His head is tiny and he has a very "derrrrr" look to him. Not my style.
