By deciphering Kate Middleton's gestures, the specialist noted a "confident" and "relaxed" attitude although she had to confront some "flirtatious signals". "Kate tried the life jacket and she seems to be really having fun. She laughed a lot and they seemed to have a great time with her. We see in some guys some signals of flirtation, here and there, "he explains to the tabloid.

George, Charlotte and Louis' mother "definitely put them at ease," says Darren Stanton. "She has a very caring nature – even with people she's never met before. Looking at those sincere smiles, I can tell that there was a great level of trust between her and the people she was interacting with."
The tour ended with a quiet and relaxed moment. "We saw her shaking hands, people forming a circle around her. She was really the center of attention," the expert continues. He also notes the evolution of Kate Middleton, seeming here more "independent" than ever, ready to take up any challenge.
