Every man is looking for his better half. That's exactly what Prince William has found in his wife, Kate Middleton. In addition to blessing him with three beautiful children and being by his side during royal engagements, Kate has played a huge role in his budding confidence.
One body language expert even went so far as to say that she's the reason we have a confident future king.
Body language expert Darren Stanton told Marie Claire that he was extremely shy as a kid. "As young children both William and Harry were quite introverted and did not appear that confident," Stanton said.
"William has been seen adopting a certain posture that his brother Prince Harry has become known for—placing the flat of your hand inside your jacket."
"Another tell-tale sign of William’s to show he is uncomfortable is the royal playing with the button on his jackets or touching his cufflinks," he added.
In her book, Kate: The Future Queen, she shared that this only got worse after the tragic and untimely death of his mother, Princess Diana.
"Self-consciously trying to avoid the attention he attracted," she added. "He was still coming to terms with the trauma of losing his mother two years earlier in a tragic car crash in Paris."
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge got married on April 29, 2011, at Westminster Abbey in London, England. They have three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis of Cambridge.
She possesses all the qualities a future Queen should have: she's smart, caring, beautiful, and confident.
Some of this confidence has even rubbed off on her formerly shy husband, according to Darren Stanton.
"And part of that is thanks to his marriage to Kate Middleton," he declared.
He added that becoming a father to their three kids has also helped, as it's given him "a great deal of inner peace and tranquility and boosted his confidence in himself."
This suggests that William has become much more comfortable in his own skin and much more comfortable with his future role as King.
"During exchanges, the couple have been seen intimately placing their hands on one another’s or holding hands when they are simply sat down. This shows that the couple are very much in love and Kate plays a central figure in William’s life." Aww!
