Meghan Markle 'changed' after engagement to Harry, claims body language expert

The Duchess of Sussex "changed" after getting engaged to Prince Harry, according to a body language expert.

Dr Louise Mahler appeared on the Australian programme The Morning Show to analyse some key moments in Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's Netflix documentary. During the appearance, the body language expert claimed that Meghan had "great prospects" growing up but that a "weird gesture" she began doing after the engagement showed she had changed as a person.

She said: "In the second episode when it's all about her as a child, that was delightful. She was a gorgeous young woman with great prospects, and she wrote beautifully, she did great things and then we see in the engagement photo, it changes." Suggesting that the Duchess' body language showed the change, she said: "Her smile becomes teeth, her eyes are dead, her arms lock into her body and she began doing this weird gesture where she pushes her hair back which is useless, what a useless gesture. Who does that? She changed."

Dr Mahler also claimed that Meghan and Harry are "different" people when they're not together. She said that side by side she sees "a man completely besotted by her, madly in love", while Meghan "plays that up" with "a lot of breathiness". But when presenters asked her what she noticed when the couple were apart, she said: "Harry is somebody who obviously has low self-esteem, he talks constantly about being ginger, 'I'm a ginger' the whole time as though that's a problem. And then he talks about his heartbreak and you hear to this day that his voice breaks".

She said the prince was "affected dramatically by his mother's death". Moving on to how Meghan differs while the couple were apart, she said: "She constantly talks about freedom 'I must be free, free, free' or 'Oh look there's my favourite song about freedom'." The body language expert concluded: "She accentuates that freedom is her core value and he is a very heartbroken, sad man."

The couple's Netflix documentary included a number of candid photos and videos giving an insight into their lives, but Dr Mahler claimed that these were "very staged". "They are not candid photos, they are staged photos. Everything they do is staged!" she said. She also addressed the "awkward" moment in the documentary where Meghan tried to recreate a curtsey, claiming that it was "disrespectful" and "one of the few" moments Harry was embarrassed by her.

"The whole story about the curtsy was disrespectful. If you went to a different country with a different culture, say Japan, and they said you had to bow, you would not make fun of that bow," she said. "You would see it as a creative opportunity, you wouldn't suddenly talk about 'Oh in medieval times'. She added: "I think he was definitely embarrassed at that moment and this was one of the few moments he was embarrassed, and I think he should be embarrassed a lot more".
