Prince Harry made a solo entrance at Westminster Abbey, but he was accompanied by his cousins, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugene, as per the seating order.
However, observers noted that Prince Harry appeared somewhat uncomfortable as he walked behind other peripheral members of the royal family.
Body language expert Darren Stanton commented on the moment, suggesting that the York sisters were uncertain about how to reassure the father of two before the significant royal event.
Stanton, speaking on GB News, explained that they were trying to include him but faced some awkwardness in terms of protocol.
Their intention was to make him feel less awkward, especially since he arrived without his wife.
Interestingly, Stanton also pointed out that Prince Harry generally appears more confident without her.
He further remarked that there seemed to be a slight hesitation, indicating that they were unsure about what actions to take.
Stanton added that Beatrice and Eugene, having grown up with Prince Harry, are more forgiving and less inclined to strictly adhere to protocols.
During the event, Prince Harry engaged in conversations with both of his cousins’ husbands, Eduardo Mapolimosi and Jack Brooksbank.
Stanton compared this interaction to attending a wedding where one may not know many people but finds someone familiar to talk to in order to alleviate awkwardness.
While Beatrice and Eduardo politely acknowledged Harry’s presence upon his arrival, they distanced themselves soon after.
Harry attempted to join them and be a fun, friendly third wheel so as not to be alone.
However, Eugene and Jack quickly moved forward, leaving Harry behind.
Princess Beatrice had clear instructions regarding Harry’s placement between Eugene and Jack, ensuring he would not walk down the aisle alone at the back.
Beatrice and Eduardo remained in the back until Harry took his place in line, at which point they followed behind him.
In a surprising turn of events, it appears that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may have further tensions with members of the royal family.
A recent report suggests that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are displeased with Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugene.
This stems from the sisters being seen socializing with controversial television host Piers Morgan in London.
While the reason for their presence at the event is unknown, they appeared quite friendly with Piers.
At one point, Beatrice even hugged him in front of the paparazzi.
Many royal fans were taken aback, considering the York sisters were believed to be allies of Harry and Meghan.
However, over the past few years, Piers has consistently criticized and slammed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for various reasons.
Some even speculate that Piers may have a secret obsession with Meghan Markle.
A source close to the situation shared with OK Magazine that Harry and Meghan felt blindsided by Beatrice and Eugene’s actions, perceiving it as a betrayal.
The insider stated, “After everything Piers has said about them as a couple, especially Meghan, who he’s called so many names, Harry and Meghan are astonished that they’ve gone behind their backs like this.”
It remains unclear whether this incident will alter Harry and Meghan’s relationship with the York sisters or if they will choose to overlook it.
Nevertheless, it appears that the Sussex squad has voiced their disapproval of the York sisters’ association with Piers.
