Darren Stanton, a body language expert, dissected the pair as they joined tennis fans in the stands at the prestigious tournament. Speaking about the Duchess’s mannerisms at the match, Mr Stanton said she appeared anxious at times. Speaking to the Daily Mirror, he said: “During a tense moment on court, Kate was seen anxiously tucking her hair behind her ears as William pulled a tense expression.” British player Norrie prevailed to beat Belgian opponent David Goffin in a dramatic five-set match to reach the Wimbledon semi-finals. However, the road to victory was not easy, which was reflected in the face of the Duchess. Kate and William cheered loudly as Norrie battled hard to secure a 3-6 7-5 2-6 6-3 7-5 victory against unbeaten Goffin. Mr Stanton said: “As always an outing on such a public scale sees Kate and William setting the scene and a precedent for what things will be like when William becomes king. “They are two people who are not afraid to be themselves while still carrying out their royal duties gracefully and to the best of their ability.” READ MORE: Camilla to keep country groove ‘Where She Goes to Escape!’ He seemed to say “Oh no, no, no…F…” before the cameras panned away, not letting him finish his sentence. But by the end of the match, the pair seemed happy with the result. Norrie is the first Briton to reach the Wimbledon singles semi-finals since Andy Murray in 2016 and the first British player since Johanna Konta in 2017. After the win, the 26-year-old said: “I think winning a race like that, I’m shocked. I don’t know what to say now. I’m looking back at all the hard work and all the sacrifices I’ve had to make and it’s definitely paid off – and it feels really good .”
