The Prince and Princess of Wales not only have a lot of fun undertaking their charitable visits together, but they also have secret ways of communicating in public, too.
From cheeky bum taps to thigh clasps and a hidden handbag signal, the royal couple has a clever way of secretly sending messages to each other.
We reveal how they cleverly let each other know exactly what they are thinking without using words.
THE 'FLIRTY' THIGH CLASP Body language expert Judi James explains: “This is quite a dominant gesture of ownership as well as being quite flirty. It can imply ‘I’ve got this’ as in ‘don’t worry, I can take over the conversation here.’”
'CHEEKY' BUM PAT TO BOOST CONFIDENCE “It’s a flattering confidence ‘stroke’ for her husband’s ego but can also be used to say ‘cheer up and smile!’ or ‘enjoy yourself,’" says Judi.
CLEVER CLUTCH BAG TRICK WHEN 'AWKWARD' According to Myka Meier, founder of Beaumont Etiquette, when Kate is at an event, she “holds her bag in front of her in both hands when shaking hands might be awkward.”
MIRRORING BEHAVIOUR TO 'COMBAT SHYNESS' Judi explained: “Kate has also used what look like more deliberate mirroring techniques with William that have hinted she’s helping him with his occasional trait of shyness."
