Despite only staying in the UK for a short period of time for the ceremony before flying back to the US for his son's birthday, Prince Harry was seen smiling and appearing particularly lively during his time at Westminster Abbey.
Although he was seated in the third row, which some saw as a demotion, Prince Harry seemed to be in good spirits and interacted with people in the congregation as he made his way up the aisle.
Body language expert Darren Stanton remarked on Prince Harry's behavior during the event, stating that he exhibited a display of confident bravado with a smiling and round-cheeked expression.
Stanton observed Prince Harry's strides and the way he pushed one side of his jacket away, which he interpreted as signaling to the world that he was happy, upbeat, and confident to be back.
Stanton noted that Prince Harry also displayed signs of emotion and compassion throughout the ceremony, which was undoubtedly challenging for him at times.
As the ceremony progressed, Prince Harry appeared to ease into his stance and expressions and gained more confidence.
By the end of the event, he seemed to be more relaxed and at ease, similar to how he was when he first arrived.
Although there may have been an element of pretending or putting on a show to his confident demeanor, it's clear that Prince Harry was emotional and compassionate throughout the ceremony, and the expert's assessment suggests that he gradually became more comfortable and at ease as the event went on.
