Prince William & Prince Harry: Body Language Analysis Of Diana Statue Unveiling

Last week, Prince William and Prince Harry stepped out to unveil a statue of Princess Diana. They reunited in memory of their late mother, but many were also looking closely at how the feuding brothers interacted during the ceremony.

We all saw that Harry appeared more at ease than his brother William, but what did their body language truly communicate? Are they still fighting, or could they be nearing a reconciliation? Click through the gallery for a breakdown of what experts said about their body language.

According to the experts, the most important moments were when the brothers entered the event together and when they unveiled the statue. Expert Judi James said, from the start, the brothers "mirrored" each other's body language.

She told The Sun, "Emerging side-by-side their smiles did appear slightly over-worked at first but one very telling trait was how their body language was mirrored."

This doesn't necessarily mean William and Harry are on good terms, but it does mean they were united in "their roles as Diana's sons over their roles as brothers," James added.

However, Prince Harry in particular showed signs of nerves in the entrance, experts said. Despite his smile and interactions with guests, he was seen toying with a button on his jacket and with his wedding ring. James called this a "self-comfort gesture" that suggests "inner tension."

Expert Toni Coleman also told PureWow that Prince William was "authoritative" as he pointed out sights during the entrance, perhaps because he now views his brother as "more of an outsider, who needs some instruction."

Expert Judi James also observed that "old ties still bind [the brothers] despite their current rifts," which held true when it came time for them to unveil the statue of Diana.

Just seconds after they uncovered the memorial to their late mother, Prince Harry glanced at Prince William. James said, "That gaze did imply a moment of reconciliation." She added, "It was kind of 'this is our mother and remember how things used to be.'"

While James saw signs of reconciliation and unity, Toni Coleman on the other hand felt that the brothers were "completely out of sync" at other times, such as when Harry joked with guests and appeared more casual while William remained serious.

The expert felt Harry may have "rubbed Prince William the wrong way," but she also believes the brothers express emotions "so differently," and their mother's emotional anniversary was a "very different" experience for them both.

So, the body language experts tend to suggest the brothers set aside their differences for their late mother's anniversary. Their personal reunion may have been awkward and tense, but it was an emotional day with a bigger purpose than the feud.

In the end, body language says the underlying connection between William and Harry — even amid their rift — helped them get through the day in memory of Princess Diana, who would have turned 60 years old last week.
