Meghan Markle’s PDA with Prince Harry shows strong bond, not 'clinginess'

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry made their first joint public appearance in five months over the weekend, and a body language expert says their outing showed nothing but genuine affection.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended Kevin Costner’s One805LIVE! charity concert at the actor’s oceanside estate in Santa Barbara on September 20, raising funds for first responders. 

Meghan stunned in a sleeveless navy dress while Harry opted for a black shirt, blazer, and trousers.

The couple’s cozy gestures sparked online chatter about Meghan being “clingy,” but body language expert Darren Stanton told Betfair Slots the truth is very different.

“They clearly still share a very close bond,” Stanton explained. 

“Meghan is especially supportive of Harry; she often touches his back or his elbow, showing her warmth and affection. They’re comfortable being tactile and aren’t afraid to display affection in public.”

He added: “It’s clear that their connection remains strong. Neither shows unhappiness, frustration, or anxiety." 

"Instead, both display genuine happiness and joy, enjoying each other’s company and interacting with the press.”
