Prince Harry’s behaviour was remarkably similar to his late mum Princess Diana but now it’s all changed, an expert has said.
Celebrity body language buff Inbaal Honigman told Daily Star that The Duke of Sussex used to appear “shy” and “humble” in old interviews but now his demeanor is dramatically different.
It comes as Harry has made sensational claims about the Royal Family ahead of the release of his tell-all memoir Spare, due to be published January 10 in the UK.

One of Harry’s most shocking allegations is that he was physically attacked by his brother Prince William during a row over his marriage to Meghan Markle.

Harry claimed that things escalated after William branded Harry’s wife “rude”, “difficult” and “abrasive” and that William ripped his necklace and knocked him to the floor.
Honigman picked out key insights about Harry’s behaviour after studying the trailer released on Tuesday (January 3) for Harry’s upcoming ITV interview with Tom Bradby, which airs Sunday at 9pm.
She spotted Harry uses his hands much more in interviews these days as opposed to years ago when he appeared more “reserved”.
“It’s worth noting that he didn’t used to talk with his hands quite so much,” Honigman said. “The Harry of years ago would be quite reserved and keep his hands still, clutched in front of him.
“In a 2006 interview with Ant and Dec alongside his father and brother, his head is lowered for much of it and his hands are wound together.”

According to Honigman, Harry was very like Diana in that he came across “shy” and “lacking in confidence”.
She explained: “He appeared shy and lacking in confidence, not unlike the way his mother, the late Princess Diana would display quite humble body language in public interviews.”
Diana sadly died after a car crash on August 1997 in France, when Harry was just 12.

But these days he presents himself as more assured and it’s clear in the interview clip.
“This is not the Harry we meet now,” Honigman added. “His chin is up, his hands move passionately, he feels accomplished, and he feels justified.”
A prime example is when Harry declares: “I want a family, not an institution,” while gesturing away with his hand.
