PRINCE Harry looked like a “fish out of water” when he accepted an award with Meghan on Saturday, a body language expert said.
The Duke and Duchess accepted an award at the NAACP Image Awards in LA over the weekend.
But according to Dr Lillian Glass, Prince Harry looked “embarrassed” and like he “didn’t want to be there”.
She also told Express.co.uk that Meghan Marke “on the other hand, is in her element”, explaining: “Harry looked like a fish out of water as he didn’t know what to do or how to comport himself as he looked down at the award and examined it and then rocked back and forth and pulled away from Meghan.
“He straightened up for a while when she quickly turned her head towards him and shot him a not so pleasant look indicating that he was on stage and to be aware of it and to shape up. He purses his lips in embarrassment and then cocks his head like a wounded puppy and then looks at the camera.
“He is not smiling the whole time he is up there. He then forgets and looks back at her and looks down and then returns to facing the camera.”
Dr Glass continued to say that, “Meghan on the other hand is in her element as she looks directly into the camera and speaks eloquently,” while “”Harry is clearly not happy and uncomfortable as indicated through his body language at this event.”
