Royals Embrace a "New Normal" with Poised Public Appearance at VE Day Commemoration
King Charles and Princess Kate delivered a calm, professional, and drama-free display as they appeared publicly for the 80th anniversary of VE Day, earning praise from both experts and the public alike.
Their body language during the commemorative service at Westminster Abbey sent a clear message: the modern monarchy is embracing a “new normal” — one defined by quiet dignity and genuine connection.
Body Language Expert Commends Royals for Authentic and Composed Demeanor
Renowned body language analyst Judi James told The Mirror that the royal family’s appearance was intentional in tone and symbolism.
“There was a strong message from the body language of the royals today that they had established a ‘New Normal’ in terms of going back to basics,” James explained.“This was a professional and drama-free appearance.”
King Charles Shares Heartfelt Moments with Veterans
James highlighted that King Charles appeared deeply moved as he interacted with WWII veterans during the service. His gestures included gentle touches, sincere laughter, and moments of shared gratitude.
“Charles looked touched and delighted to be sharing some jokes and gentle touch rituals with the veterans,” she observed, noting the monarch’s emotional warmth and accessibility.
Kate Middleton Showcases Genuine Warmth and Engagement
Meanwhile, Princess Kate (Kate Middleton) once again proved why she is a cornerstone of the next generation of royals.
Her presence was noted for its calm elegance and authentic connection with attendees — particularly when she interacted with elderly veterans following the service.
“Kate was fully immersive during her conversations with the veterans,” said James.“Her interactions looked animated and authentic… She even bent down to eye level with a woman in a wheelchair, squatting on her heels to maintain eye contact — a sign of deep respect and empathy.”
The Princess also engaged in several tactile moments, further emphasizing her relatable, human approach to royal duties.
