Prince William and Kate Middleton are becoming more comfortable in their marriage.

The Prince and Prince of Wales, who are preparing to be the next king and Queen, are coming into their own 11 years after their matrimonial. Speaking about the couple, body language expert Judi James tells daily Mail: "Their rituals suggest there's been no real change in the intensity of their love for one another; what's happened is they have finally felt safe enough to trust enough (not each other but the public and the press) to show it."

"It's a hug that suggests all inhibitions are being jettisoned as the desire to greet and cherish takes over," the expert noted.

The expert adds this change is "the latest chapter of their marriage," in which the couple will "feel free to show their levels of mutual love and adoration by more tactile behaviors in public."

She continued that their PDA is "still very much a part of their personal and generational royal brand now."
