The Duchess of Sussex has "no plans to stop" striving forward as she celebrates her 45th birthday, according to a body language expert. Meghan Markle shared a black-and-white photograph on Instagram showing her leaping into a pool, wearing a swimming costume and sunglasses, with her arms raised in a "victory pose" and holding balloons in one hand.
Expert Analysis of the Birthday Snap
Celebrity psychic and body language expert Inbaal Honigman, speaking exclusively to The Daily Express, said Meghan is in an "intensely positive mood" in the newly-released photograph. "Meghan's raised arms are joyous and optimistic, they're up in the air in a victory pose," Honigman said. "Punching the air, times two. It signifies double joy."
Honigman also noted the forward movement of Meghan's legs, which she described as "ploughing ahead as if marching." This conveys "a sense of confidence and cheer," showing that Meghan feels "every day is worth looking forward to" and that she has "no plans to stop or stand still."
Signs of Anxiety Beneath the Surface
Despite the happy surface, Honigman detected some signs of "anxiety" in the photograph. "Her smile might be a little over stretched, lips tense, sharing a feeling of some anxiety," the expert said. However, she added that Meghan may feel she is taking risks, but there is "unbridled joy" in her risk-taking.
The birthday photograph has been widely shared online, with many wishing Prince Harry's wife a great day. Just hours after Meghan shared the image, it was revealed that Princess Eugenie had given birth to a third child, a baby girl, the day before Meghan's birthday. This is likely to please the duchess, who is close to her husband's cousin.
