Meghan Markle’s ‘deliberate signal’ as duchess ‘appears lost without Prince Harry’ -expert

Meghan Markle appeared “lost without” Prince Harry during her latest appearance in LA, a body language expert has claimed.

On Saturday the Duchess of Sussex attended the LA Children’s Hospital gala where she mingled with other celebrities including Demi Lovato, Kaley Cuoco, Jamie Lee Curtis and Colin Hanks.

But she was seen without her husband, the Duke of Sussex, who was away touring New York, London and Southern Africa in the past few weeks to champion his own causes.

Now body language expert Judi James analysed the duchess’s latest outing and claimed she appeared to send a “deliberate” signal of her current state and seemed “somehow lost without” Harry.

She told GB News: “For a confident woman who is used to cameras and red carpets, she acted grateful to see and join her friend.

“The body language ritual that she followed seemed to be a deliberate signalling of her current state, as Harry is off on his solo tour.

“Meghan performed signals of coyness and even shyness, plus a subliminal desire to have someone take over the lead from Harry.

“It was as though she was somehow lost without him on the red carpet or wanted to suggest she is feeling more vulnerable and girlishly playful than usual.”

The duchess was joined on the red carpet by her close friend Kelly McKee Zajfen, the co-founder of Alliance of Moms, an LA “community of philanthropists who support pregnant and parenting teens in LA’s foster care system”.
