While the couples’ words speak volumes, their body language can reveal a lot too.
Psychologist and TV’s human lie detector Darren Stanton particularly picked up on Meghan’s reassuring movements and the “protective gesture” of Meghan placing her hand on Harry’s: “She may have noticed at some points in the interview that he might have needed a little bit of reassurance,” he explains.
