Prince and Meghan Markle recently wrapped up their four days visit to Colombia where they traveled to “promote mental health for young people and raise awareness about cyberbullying.”
On top of that, Meghan’s fans have some questions for Prince Harry about his behavior with an interpreter while sitting right next to his wife.
Not long after touching down in the South American nation, Harry and Meghan were treated to a tribe dance show at the Zapata National Centre for the Arts in Bogotá. A few times during the performance the prince was seen speaking with the director of the National Center for the Arts, Xiomara Suescun, who was seated next to him.
At one point, cameras captured Harry leaning back and resting his arm on Suescun’s chair and the Duchess of Sussex’s fans did not appreciate that one bit. Many took to X (formerly twitter) to sound off about it.
One person wrote: “Harry tries to be slick by placing his arm around the back of the translator–it’s creepy, absolutely inappropriate & forward & places this woman in an uncomfortable position. His body language is gross.”
“Sitting very close to the translator & with his arm around her chair!!!!! Oh dear, Harry will be in for it when he gets home!!!!!” another said. A third chimed in: “I’m sure Harry got the wrath of Meghan about this!” And a fourth added: “The duchess is trying to maintain her composure and keep cool but you can tell she is burning mad.”
Commenters did not fault Suescun for anything though, noting: “The translator is not doing anything wrong and appears to be acting with professionalism and decorum” and “Their interpreter’s demeanor seemed very professional and friendly.”
However, a body language expert analyzed other parts of the Sussexes’ trip and how the couple acted with each other pointing out that there was an “undeniable passion” between them.
Darren Stanton is a body language and behavioral expert with a degree in psychology. He previously worked as a police officer and used his expertise to uncover the truth when interviewing hundreds of suspects. He later moved into media and TV as a consultant and has been dubbed the “Human Lie Detector.”
He noticed that when the duke and duchess shared a dance, Harry showed that he wanted to connect “on a deeper level” with his bride.
Speaking on behalf of Betfair Roulette, Stanton explained: “Harry and Meghan shared a dance as they visited the Caribbean coast. This intimate exchange was filled with undeniable passion — they couldn’t keep their eyes off each other. Harry took the lead by initiating the dance. He wanted to connect with his wife on a deeper level.
“We see this demonstrated through Harry taking Meghan’s hand and pulling her closer towards him. When they were letting their hair down and having a dance, Meghan and Harry gazed into each other’s eyes and both had their arms wrapped around each other. Their bodies were completely in sync. Towards the end, Meghan took control as she leaned towards Harry, placed her hands on his cheeks and pulled him in for a kiss. This proves Meghan liked that Harry took the lead — but she isn’t afraid to go for what she wants.”
