According to one expert, Prince William has demonstrated his authenticity as a football lover.
The Prince of Wales, who attended the FA Cup final this evening, exemplified what sport is all about.
Judi James, a body language specialist, told The Mirror that William's body language in the Cup Final highlighted what football is all about for any true fan. He stepped out on pitch with a grimace, severe and formal-looking solemnity, and a polite demeanor toward the event."
Ms James continued: "As he raised one arm in a partial barrier ceremony, his eyes were facing downward and his lips was drawn into a gloomy grimace.
"When William met the players, however, his true feelings emerged, and he revealed his more excited, fan-boy side." William leaned into each shake, but showed which players he knew well by using a double hand clasp or an acknowledging, knowing grin as he exchanged a few words of good luck," she said.
