Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may be revealing more through body language than words. According to a new report, Meghan’s latest family video has one expert convinced the couple is genuinely settling into life back in Britain.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry show ‘lack of tension’ in new video upon UK return, claims expert
Body language expert Darren Stanton told The Blast that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s body language shows a “lack of tension” since their return to the UK. The video, shared by Meghan on Instagram, features outdoor walks, fishing trips, and quiet family moments with Archie and Lilibet. Stanton analyzed the footage on behalf of Betfair Casino. He concluded that both Harry and Meghan appeared relaxed and unguarded throughout.
According to Stanton, Harry looked completely in his element, being back in the environment he grew up in. He said, “There’s a real lack of tension in both of them.” As per Stanton, neither Harry nor Meghan seemed overly conscious of the camera, with their movements reading as familiar rather than performed.
One moment stood out to Stanton in particular, where Harry is seen fishing with his family. He described Harry’s smile as huge and genuine, with posture that stayed loose and natural throughout the clip.
According to the expert, that kind of relaxed body language typically signals real enjoyment rather than a performance for the cameras. Stanton didn’t see signs of Meghan struggling with the transition either. He said her demeanor suggested genuine comfort, with no visible stress from either of them.
The clip itself showed Harry and Meghan walking hand in hand through a wooded area, while Archie and Lilibet were filmed fishing, biking, and splashing through puddles in rain boots. The family’s dogs made appearances too, and the whole thing played out to Wham!’s “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go.”
Harry and Meghan arrived in the UK with their children on August 26. Their return followed years of tension with the royal family, dating back to their 2020 departure as senior working royals. The couple is reportedly keeping their Montecito property, meaning the move isn’t necessarily permanent.
According to Stanton, the video’s simplicity is exactly what let the couple’s happiness come through. He said their body language reflects two people who look settled and at ease, with Harry in particular seeming thrilled to be back in familiar surroundings.
