KATE MIDDLETON looked stunning wearing a yellow Emilia Wickstead dress while attending a Thanksgiving ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral.
As part of The Queen‘s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, the Royal Family attended the celebrations, which Her Majesty couldn’t attend due to experiencing discomfort during yesterday’s festivities.
But body language expert, Judi James, revealed that the Duchess of Cambridge stepped up in the Queen’s absence as future Queen and took over the Royal presence during the Thanksgiving ceremony.
Judi revealed that the body language of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge made them “look like the future king and queen.”
The expert added that Kate “looked quite firm, as if she’s starting to take the lead.
“She walked in first, waved to the crowds first.

“She threw a glance in St Paul’s at William, and she nodded her head forward like she was steeling him to do the walk out past his brother.”
The body language expert said Kate radiates confidence and the Royal presence, presumably getting ready for her role as future Queen.
“She seems to come into her own at events like this, she takes over the regal presence without the Queen there,” Judi commented.
Meanwhile, Prince William looked “joyful and upbeat” during the ceremony.
But the future King appeared to move his head away and raise his programme slightly in what could be seen as a “barrier gesture” as he made his way indirectly past Harry on the way out of the cathedral, Judi said.
His brother seemed to keep his head down at the ceremony, Judi said the duke’s gestures and expressions indicated his anxiety levels were “quite high.”
She revealed: “It was like he had agreed to be the invisible man there to some extent.”
Harry‘s mannerisms during the service included keeping his head down – which can be seen as a “gesture of submission” – while he also appeared to touch his clothes frequently, which can be a signal of anxiety, added the body language expert.
“There was that one moment when Harry seemed to relax a little bit.
I think he must have been quite anxious about where the cars were or when the cars were turning up. He was looking to see where they were.
“He seemed grateful to be able to smile and seemed less anxious at that point.
“Up to that point his anxiety levels seemed quite high.”
