Prince Harry refuses to hold Meghan's hand. Body language expert explains 

For MM it is not a public display of affection, it is a public display of dominance.

Maybe this person should understand royal's do not hold hands in public, it's simply not the done thing

Harry & Meghan will not last long 5 to 8 years

Meghan wants to bring Hollywood style into Royal Palace. Harry respected her grandmother tradition Meghan should learn to respect the Royal family as they are true Royalty. Not make believe.

She is very clingy. It was cute at first now it just too much.

Who the hell cares whether they hold their hands or not . Revolting

The engagement was too short... She is a divorcee.. She is an independent woman who is not use to being when, how, and where tok fo something....truly, I'm not surprised!

The constant hand holding was nauseating, especially on official visits.

William was very lucky to have met Kate. She’s kind, smart and has so much class.

Once she gets hold of Harry's hand, it's a ,2 hand gripper and there is no getting away.

I do believe that as a Royals on an official mission they should refrain from PDA after all,when we’re working on the job we don’t hold hands do we? It’s called decorum. why should they display their affections when they are officially on a job for the citizens of England? I agree with the Queen.

To hold hands like that behind the queen would have been silly. It was a professional engagement, it wasn’t the sort of place or event to swan around holding hands like a couple of teenagers.

In their engagement announcement she was holding his one hand with both of hers, very possessive body language.

From the very beginning it was obvious to me that she was showing the world how she was going to be different and do her own thing and everyone just thought she was so so so Charming. I knew there was something fake about her and look at where we're at now.

Much had gone down, this is when Harry stopped looking happy.

Very long comments from me regarding to the disgraceful interview : Ms Markle lied she didn't know anything about the royal family: she knew, she used to have a blog where she wrote about Prince William and Kate's wedding, she was pictured in front of the Buckingham Palace at age 15, her idol was Diana, she wore Harry’s mom favourite’s perfume in their first date and she knew Princess Eugenie before met with Harry She said her son is not a prince due to his race: It is because of King George V's law, as Archie is the great grandson of the monarch and not direct line of throne, he didn't get prince title. He will, when Charles will be King as Archie is his grandson (though after his parents moved to different country, stepped back from royal duties, threw trash to the royals, lived in the UK for only 7 months, I don't think so he will ever get any title). Also needs to mention, Meghan was very welcomed in the family and she got title.. furthermore Archie is the copy of his father except his eyes - even his skin colour. She didn't want to show curtsy to the Queen as she's Harry's grandmother. Everyone knows, you have to curtsy to the Queen, disrespectful not do it. She said they got married 3 days before their wedding: the Archbishop of Canterbury denied it, their marriage certificate says they married on 19th May, the day what we saw on the TV, also in the UK you need to have 2 witnesses - she said it was just 3 of them with a bishop - so a big lie again. Their skin colour recollections also changing throughout the interview, first she said there were several conversations regarding Archie's skin colour when she was pregnant, then changed it, it was a private conversation between Harry and one of the member of the family. Harry changed it, saying, it was only one conversation and not when Meghan was pregnant, but in the beginning of their relationship. I didn't hear that conversation, but I can imagine it was a misunderstanding.. As they didn't reveal the name, they will call all the family racist... the only family member ever had racist scandal is Harry himself with his Nazi uniform, when he was young. Maybe Meghan should talk with her dear husband first. Harry was complaining about his father, saying he didn't give him any money - though they posted a statement on instagram - still available - , they say they want financial independence. At the age 40, when you decide you don't do any royal duties (so don't do any service or work for money) and move to a different country, also proudly say you want to be financially independent, how can you blame your father not to pay anything to you? They wanted that. Other people pays for their bills at age 18. She also claims her media bullying was worst than Kate's. After Prince William and Kate's relationship was revealed in 2004, paparazzis harassed her, bullied her, didn't leave her alone. She had a quiet life beforehand as she was not a celebrity. It could be very hard 7 years for her - though never complained. (Many unrespectful articles appeared after that too, but now she is more protected). Meghan in the other hand was a celebrity, ex-actress. I believe was hard for her too, but no one can convenience me it was harder 1.5 year for her as a celebrity, than 7 years for Kate as a non-celebrity. She keep compares herself to Kate, total jealous of her, cannot accept that Kate will be Queen one day but she will always remains Duchess. They also mentioned his mom: his mom's and Meghan's situation is very different. Diana had a very private, quiet life at her early years. At age 19 her engagement with Prince Charles announced, at age 20 they got married. No one explained to her anything, she didn't got any support or love from her husband. A year later, she became a mom, a future King's mom. So in less then 2 years at age 21, she had to be wife, mother, Princess of Wales, with royal duties and responsibilities, also a pressure as a mom of the future King and as a future Queen. Her marriage with Charles was by duty not by love. She knew her husband cheated her with Camilla for years. She was shy and humble, not searching for attention at all, she was the Princess of the People - oh, yes, and always told the truth. Meghan got married with Harry at almost 40, mature, independent, knows-what-she-wants, already divorced woman. At the age she married with Harry, Diana was already dead. She was the oldest royal bride (Camila is exception, cause it was Charles' second marriage, and it didn't hold in church). She knew what family she married into. She was a celebrity, she enjoys fame, limelight, attention. She likes when everything is about her, and when everyone gives her right. As Harry said: What Meghan wants, she gets - tells everything about their relationship. Even in this interview, Meghan was the leader. Harry said, Meghan was the one who told him he is trapped (how could he trapped? he was born into this family and he was fine for 35 years) and she saves him and she quickly interrupted and corrected her husband: he saved them. But in the royal family you have to be humble, respectful, boastful people like Meghan doesn't fit in. She is very manipulative too. She turned against her family, and then she turned her husband against his family. Little Archie and baby sister will not have any family members except their parents and maternal grandma. No great grandma, grandpas, uncles, aunties, cousins.. no one, no family bonds. Diana would be the saddest seeing how her younger son turned against his family. She said, she wants to see William as a King supported by his brother, Harry. She supported and respected her country and the Monarchy she would never left her country, in the interview she said the monarchy is her children's future. She had problems with Charles and Camilla, but she was always faithful to her nation. Also, she was sad when she was forced to divorce from Charles, she didn't want to break out from the royal family. I used to really like Harry (after his youth scandals) and I really hope, at least now that his grandfather died, will realize, how important family is and finish this childlish behaviour, because he just embarrass himself. If he wants to protect Meghan he doesn't have to attack and betray his own family and hurt others. Also was very disrespectful this interview at the time, Prince Philip was in the hospital in bad conditions with heart surgery - and they knew it but didn't care.

Meghan just seems SO needy

My family is not royalty, we are neither rich nor famous. But we don't like touchy-feely persons. At home we all hug or kiss (we're quite the huggers), but as soon as one gets out of the door, no PDA is tolerated, because it's ridiculous and pathetic. I can only imagine how much more embarrassing it must be for the Queen

Kate and william make it professional and sweet at the same time. Harry and meghan make it looks like a date everytime they go out even during royal duties. Well, to be exact, meghan treats harry like her own puppy with a leash

Personally, it shows Meghan's insecurities all the time if she must hold hands. This isn't Junior high or high school - I wish Meghan Markle would grow up and behave as a mature adult at 36 years old trying to prove someone loves her?

Yes, she,s very annoying!!! She does it on purpose!!!!!! He,s not going to run away!!!!!!Not yet!!!!! She,s phoney and certainly not royal!!!!!!!!

Its an etiquette/protocol for the royal family not to do public display of affection. Same is true for prince charles and princess diana, as well as prince william and kate.

It's her way of showing WHO'S IN CHARGE!!! She HAS to hold Harrys' hand to keep him in line! Plus she doesn't care about protocol. She will do what she wants, when she wants, and how she wants and no one is going to tell her she can't do something. Trying to always hold Harrys' hand or hold his arm, is her controlling the situation and making sure people know that he's with her. That way no other woman can try to get his attention or talk to him. SHE has to be in control at all times. And she doesn't care if she's not going by protocol, she will do what she wants. She purposely holds Harrys' hand bc it's like having him on a leash.

Shame she shows no affection to her own family Dad sister and brother

that is one of the rules when you are part of the royal family. # Do not be clingy in public

I really don’t get why she constantly wants to hold Harry specially on official visits! Are you on a date or something??? Like come on! Respect please hahha she’s so unprofessional my gosh 🤣. People already know you’re a married couple, so why the need!!! Meghan’s demeanour is like a teen. Like a giggly teen!

Meanwhile I'm going to eat the strawberry cheesecake and call it a night.

It not so much due to being royalty it’s to do with the fact that they are at work. Not sure any work places would tolerate partners holding hands if they both work in same place.

would someone please get her a hair tie? watch how she "tucks her hair behind her ear" but when her hands come down, her hair is right where she left it. She always plays with her hair

This lovely couple do not show body affection in public is because they are confident of one another. MM and Harry is the reverse. MM is self assuring that Harry loves her and also wanting to show the world that Harry is hers. She is trying use that gesture to boost her confidence to fend off criticism which I find it annoying. I just feel good when I see William and Kate ....I just liked them. I also liked and admired Princess Diana but not the way in which Megain showing off public affection that is unnecessary.

She not respect her husband culture and tradition then she complaint royal families is racist? Whats a drama

But naturally you don't want to be too mushy with your partner in public, it's weird sometimes and to orgsds

I can not stand this girl This marriage will not last.

I'm not exactly a fan, but this video is absolute nonsense!

Their handholding is not a sign of affection, it’s a sign of ownership.

I had to rewatch it several times because I don't see any sign of rejection.

It happened on other occasions as well and now it seems to be the norm. No more holding, touching and she walks in front of him all the time. No respect there. But she wants the titles... 🐝

Shes all way touching him his hand or her hand is never off his bk !!! Dont get it

My Husband and I were together since I was 14. Married at 16. (3) Girls and (6) Grandchildren later he passed away suddenly. We loved each other deeply but we never needed to constantly hold hands, touch or kiss, and I feel if we would have been part of the RF we would have been less so especially at formal functions or events. I've always felt that Willian and Kate have a perfect balance and it's not all based on the physical aspect, because honestly, outside of MM and Harry continually holding hands and back there's no sign of deep love or respect, yet with The Queen and Her Prince, William and Kate you can clearly see a devotion and respect without all the rest. If no one has thought of it, its definitely something to think on. Also when you always seem so involved with each other it's hard to seen as being open and approachable to anyone else

Would any of us hold hands with our partner if we were working? They're at work. All public figures take note.

She constantly wants to touch him but it’s protocol. She can’t touch him especially with the queen in front of them

I'LL BET HARRY WONDERS WHY THE BED IS FULL OF FLEAS ALL THE TIME. WELL, WHEN YOU LAY DOWN WITH DOGS........

Harry is not refusing to hold her hand....both of them looked like they wanted to but this is a more refrained engagement especially with the Queen. Just stop. 🙄

Prince William has all the class and sincerity needed for a king. He is knowledgeable about the problems facing the people. He will be a wonderful king. King William. YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

The royals don't hold hands in public.

She’s grabbing Harry for control and domination. It’s not a display of affection. She’s an abusive bully.

Maggot is very controlling, thats all it is..she looks clingy enough to turn anyone off.

now theyve left The firm I dont really care -theyre both very ungateful

For a woman who prides herself on being independent she sure has to hold onto him a lot. While it's a sweet gesture of love and support no woman needs validation in the form of holding onto their spouse/significant other like that. There have been other videos on this subject and there have been times when he gently pulls away. When you're in the spotlight like they are, one should expect public scrutiny. It doesn't help when they leave a private area such as Vancouver Island for Los Angeles.

With the queen there, I doubt it was anything more than his showing respect for royal protocol.

This was in the beginning When Harry respected the Queen & Occasion. Had manners.. Meghan was humiliated and MADE HIM IN FUTURE DO WHAT SHE WANTED.. Holding hands all the time, SO Childish..

Meghan clearly has no idea how royalty works.

I slowed it down and still don’t see her reach for his hand.

It’s funny how ppl freak out when u give ur opinion and it doesnt go along with what they are thinking liking or approving someone or what they are doing, yet they can give their opinion to me and it’s ok. I have just as much right to my opinion as the next person!

She is always touching her hair, Dutches or not, there is no way she will ever stop doing it

She needs a more manageable wig, one that can stay in place. The constant hair/wig touching is getting old.

He rather play with the button on his jacket than hold her hand ,he just loves to play with his button

Meghan makes my stomach turn! They both should refrain from handholding and back rubbing when “on duty”. What is she trying to prove? Not to forget the hand constantly on her baby belly ! It is nauseating!

Omg let the people live in peace

It’s common courtesy. The public appearances are about the people, the event, not about the Royals personal life.? To draw attention to oneself naturally changed the narrative of the occasion.

I don't know what he like in her

I don't know why this Meghan marble have to always hold hand with prince Harry.. insecure much?..

Princess ❤️ Kate is a decent lady ❤️🙏❤️.

*BREAKING NEWS* Prince Harry eats a sandwich

Kate doesn't have to show affection you can see it in their body movements they are miles away in distance but you can see it in their eyes how much they love each other and they have each other's backs 💖💗💕

Watch the bunion video. Harry is upset she has bunions. It turns him off & now he realizes the baby daddy is the bunion doctor. The honeymoon is OVER!!

Have you seen them during prince louis christening? They kept holding hands. Lol

respect to the queen.

Meghan decided marrying a prince, she must behave as one of their kind. She is not going to change their traditions and rules, but can only be placed aside. She needs to behave.

william is one of good guys. lucky you kate.

Has nobody explained her that there is a protocol to follow...? Spoiled Hollywood girl...

We all told you Harry not to marry her

Ooooo, she would have thrashed him when they got home for doing that. Cause that’s all you see them do in footage now. Her clamping down on his hand like a steel trap not letting go of it’s prey.

Exactly, Harry and Markhle love looks stage. Kate & william dont show PDA but still seem connected somehow. Plus Meghab comes across as way too clingly

I’m afraid the royal mystic has all but gone , they are over exposed as the the younger royals wed out of their class , and then get divorced ...

I'm sick to death of hearing about mm there is a lot more royals then her x

The truth is that Meghan wants so much to be like Princess Diana on Meghan's sleeps with Charles at the beginning of the relationship with Harry

Just leave them alone 😩❤️✨

It is not affection it’s control

The only reason why they chose not to hold each others hand is because of the Queen. They are married now and in the presence of the Queen you must refrain from Public affection, just like the Queen and Prince Phillip has in their 70 years of marriage. Prince Harry knows the Royal protocol in the presence of the Queen and Meghan knows enough about Royal protocol as well. So just leave them alone and stop making up nonsense. Harry loves Meghan. PERIOD.

Holding hand too much projecting lust ...only if too much..been there...it's just like.i can't wait to go to bed..haahahah...and because I hold on too much Everytime we be together..he begin to feel annoyed as his family begin to comment..it as inappropriate gesture..Well that the story of.my ex...and me...I just love to drawn people attention by letting everyone see how loving we both were..well again..I see my brother and his wife..they only hold hand when they both were drunk..but most of the time..they didn't hold hand or show intimacy to the public..and when I ask them..they reply "the both respect each other..and support each other...but doesn't mean they need to show nor tell any one..they had a great year to go over..with 3kids succesfully after 7 years up till now..😂😂😂

It is against official protocol for them to be holding hands. If she wrote letters to the senior members saying she was all in then why did she keep breaking protocol? Is by no means a person who would for that.

Come on... Who the hell ALWAYS HOLDING HAND ALL THE TIME?? even they are drowning in love. My hand already sweat just to look how long and always they holding hand.

She always wants to be stuck to him like velcro - is she afraid that he'll run away? Not that I would blame him

So sorry from America we sent TRASH. No one ever heard of her until engagement and tabloids of how she ghosted her dad, unlaced, both sides of family. So sorry, not all Americans are like this awful woman.

Why do you keep perpetuating this story? Fake news to get views.

She is so rude.

Princess Kate ,so amazingly beautiful.Is she real ?

Why whatever Harry and Meghan does is always blown out of proportion, why can’t the world leave them alone, let them be.

If it’s a work event, then it’s just about behaving in a professional manner as ambassadors for the royal family. It you went to a business meeting with your partner it wouldn’t be appropriate to hold hands, stroke, cling onto etc. Will and Kate are professional working royals. That’s all.

Actually royal couple should not hold each other hands in public, they must maintain minimum distance. She might have trained up now.

She just can’t walk with heels

MM does way too much of that PDA and that makes it look phony.

Actually in England #myCountry they aren’t aloud to show public affection

I feel really sorry for Harry, he honestly doesn't know what he's got in Meghan, He will realise very soon but it will be too late. People say she is a gold digger and social climber. Meghan is starting to show her true colors as well in her demands and expectations. Poor Harry, he will be blown away with her demands the further they go on with this marriage.

As a Royal member you are not allowed to hold hands etc public show of affection

Kate is on to her and has been from the start. I love her she is a strong woman who knows what she wants and has done what must be done to be a successful royal. Also the Queen 👸 loves her.

Oh please, almost everyone here are complaining about celebrities being criticized; made fun of; talked about in a negative way. So what? That’s why they are celebrities. And they want that attention. They welcome positive and also negative attention. It only keeps them famous. So stop being party poopers and let us have some fun. 🙄

I love this couple very much.But many times when they are in public i noticed meghan likes to engage everyone else,probably trying to endear herself to them, but constantly ignores Harry, then if Harry attempts to move over, boom, she follows him quick trying to grab his hand. Its very rude behaviour to develope familiarity with your own spouse.

She may not have "reached out" but, in a way, YES she did. Meghan put her hand down where she was expecting Harry to grab it. He did not, and obviously held it away from the communal area between them, thereby holding it away from her, so YES, he rejected her hand. She is getting way too clingy in public and Harry is getting tired of it.
