A ‘body language expert’ explains.
After a period of being out of action due to various health problems, it finally seemed that Princess Charlene was doing well again. Unfortunately, the princess and her hubby, Prince Albert, subsequently became the focus of endless rumors of a broken marriage. What is this actually like? This is what a body language expert says about the princely couple!
Marital problems
Princess Charlene did not appear in public for more than a year due to her long and, above all, mysterious illness. Due to her long absence, there were plenty of rumors about marital problems between her and husband Prince Albert. Her return could not completely calm the mood, and a French tabloid headlined at the time that a divorce between the two would be inevitable.
Anyway, the two are still together and regularly appear together again at events. In the Monaco Matin, the princess already thanked her husband and called him her protector. “We talked about these malicious articles together, and he did everything he could to protect me and the children.”
Body language
However, according to body language expert Judi James, there is still a lot of tension among the couple. This is how she looked at their body language when the two appeared at the Monaco Women Forum in 2023. She told Express what struck her then.
“On the surface, almost like an official message that they convey with their body language, the couple holds very royal poses,” Judi begins. And that means: side by side, backs straight, friendly smile, and a neutral posture.
“But there are some underlying signs that indicate tension,” the expert continues. “Charlene’s shoulders are slightly drawn inwards, and this, together with her soft gaze, creates a kind of vulnerable air.” It seems that Charlene is also mainly looking for support from her husband here. “It seems that she sees Albert as a support, and he places his arm behind her back, as if he is presenting her to the audience.”
‘Too enthausiastic’
James also described Charlene’s recent romantic outburst at the rugby championships as ‘awkward’.
“She took the lead in these public displays of affection,” she told the Daily Mail. And Albert? He looked completely lost – clearly ‘a bit shocked and uncomfortable’, according to James.
Well, if you give out a good package, it’s not good again. In any case, Charlene appears increasingly happy at all kinds of events in Monaco, and there are still no serious marital problems. But then again, you hardly hear the body language experts talking about that.
