Now, body language expert Judi James claims this is only the beginning, as we are all witnessing George's confidence and maturity ‘unfurl’ before our eyes.
Speaking to the Express, Judi James compared Prince George’s recent outings to his first appearance at the Euros. She said, “Royal fans have shared every moment of George’s life as a child but the boy we saw at the Euros was clearly a fledgling prince and since then we have watched him unfurl in that specific role while still showing signs of his cheeky, fun-loving side.”
She added “The biggest revelation at the Euros came with the seat positioning and the spatial behaviours.

“Prior to that event, we’d seen George holding his dad’s hand and sticking to his side but suddenly, in front of the hugest crowd, he was sitting in the middle between William and Kate, with a large spatial gap on either side.”
This change in Prince George is even present in his relationship with his parents and siblings, as it was revealed that he is a ‘very protective’ older brother to Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. Source even revealed that he goes out of his way to help his mother with household chores.
His growing independence was also evident in his latest outing with his parents to Wimbledon, where he mirrored Prince William in a smart suit, and shook the hand of tennis pro Novak Djokovic.
Judi remarked that since last year, “we have seen much more depth to George as well as a growing sense of maturity when it comes to some quite challenging royal events.”
