He is passionate and authentic when speaking to the press solo, receiving applause and connecting well with the audience. However, when Meghan joins him, Harry undergoes a noticeable emotional shift. In photos from the New York conference, Meghan appears joyful and happy, while Harry looks noticeably disheartened, with furrowed brows displaying frustration and anger.
It seems that he might find it frustrating to share the spotlight and believes that his message gets diluted when Meghan is present, even though she is his wife. On the other hand, body language expert Judy James noted that Harry seemed grim and haunted during the mental health event. His eye expressions appeared troubled, reminiscent of his demeanor in the final weeks before leaving the UK.
The subject matter discussed at the event, focused on making online spaces safer for children and parents, might have been personally troubling for Harry. He adopted a more serious and grim-faced posture, signaling his committed approach to the subject.
These observations are not new; in October 2019, during their Africa trip, Royal expert Angela Levin had noted Harry and Meghan's apparent unhappiness and misery. Harry's downcast expression alongside his wife raised speculation that they might have had a disagreement before their New York appearance.
Furthermore, their recent visit to New York didn't go as planned. Despite their presence, no crowds turned up at the Archewell event for World Mental Health Day in the Hudson Yards area. Most locals and tourists seemed unfazed by the Sussexes' presence.
Even during their visit to the Miss Foundation 50th Anniversary Gala in Manhattan, their spokesperson claimed they faced a near-catastrophic car chase from persistent paparazzi. This indicates that they failed to make the impact they might have hoped for during their New York trip.
