Meghan Markle used hair as a ‘barrier to hide’ – body language expert
Meghan Markle
Meghan Markle – A BODY language expert has revealed how Meghan Markle wore her hair as “curtains” yesterday evening, to conceal her face while she attended an engagement in London.
Judi James claims the Duchess of Sussex displayed “barrier gestures” while arriving at the official opening of the 2019 One Young World summit at the Royal Albert Hall in London last night.
It was Meghan’s first appearance since the explosive ITV documentary, Harry & Meghan: An African Journey, aired on Sunday night, in which the Duchess spoke openly about the pressures of royal life.
During the engagement, Meghan wore her hair down, in loose curls around her face – and body language expert, Judi claims it suggests the Duchess is using her hair as “curtains”.
She told Fabulous Digital: “Meghan’s body language last night revealed a mix of ‘the show must go on’ smiling resilience combined with hints of the vulnerability she spoke about in South Africa and traits bordering on the timid.
“She has worn her hair down before of course but this softer styling didn’t just frame the face, it obscured it at times too.
“Instead of the signature practical, more assertive look that is often tucked behind her ears or even pinned back to reveal her entire face, suggesting confidence and openness, this front-falling look formed the role of the kind of facial ‘curtains’ that women can often use as a form of comfort barrier to hide behind at will.

“At times Meghan’s hair falls over part of her face but at others it even seems to be hiding her eyes from the camera and although one hand seemed to be raised in another partial cut-off gesture there are no signs here that she was using it to push her hair back from her face again.”
Judi also explained the Duchess used “barrier gestures” at the event, by raising her left hand and using her wedding rings to “illustrate strength and security”.
She told the Daily Mail: “She appears to be holding her left hand raised higher than usual in what looks like a partial barrier gesture, with her engagement and wedding rings displayed to illustrate what she referred to as her strength and security in her life.”
The Duchess looked effortlessly stunning in a purple Aritzia gown, teamed with navy heels.
Meghan wore the £81 maxi dress, which is now just £29, to Hamilton Square in Birkenhead at the start of this year, while pregnant with baby Archie.
