A poignant moment from the past also underscores their bond. After Queen Elizabeth's passing, Queen Camilla provided emotional support to Kate. This connection was evident during Remembrance Day 2022, when the two appeared together on the Foreign Office balcony. Body language expert Judy James noted that Camilla displayed a mix of anxiety and regal composure as she laid her wreath. During this time, she turned to Kate and offered a slight smile in acknowledgment. As they left the balcony, Camilla gave Kate an affectionate smile and nod, indicating their close relationship.
Despite her public display of nervousness—characterized by fidgeting with her hat and appearing restless—Camilla's interactions with Kate were warm and appreciative. Kate, in turn, maintained a serene and composed demeanor, contrasting sharply with Camilla’s anxious behavior.
Prince William and King Charles were also present at the event. James observed that Charles appeared emotionally strained, standing at the catafalque as though lost in thought. During the playing of the Last Post, Charles’s suppressed emotions were visible through a subtle lip spasm and rapid blinking, hinting at his deep sorrow for his mother and those who had fallen in battle.a
