Just days after Prince Harry’s bombshell BBC interview on May 2, Prince William made a highly visible public appearance with his immediate family, seemingly determined to project strength and unity. On May 5, the Prince of Wales attended the 80th anniversary of VE Day alongside Kate Middleton and their children, a display many observers interpreted as a deliberate effort to showcase a “united front” in the face of ongoing family tensions.
Body language expert Darren Stanton told Hello Magazine that William and Kate appeared coordinated and composed throughout the event. “They put on a united front, and it’s clear they’re working together as a team and wanting to keep their heads held high right now,” he explained. “We didn’t see any signs of nervousness; their eye contact with one another was strong and engaged, and their postures were upright throughout. They looked confident and took everything in their stride together.” Stanton also noted that the couple was “in sync” throughout the long day, with Kate frequently checking in on William to ensure he was doing okay.
According to sources speaking to Us Weekly, the Prince of Wales is reportedly “more hurt than anything else” by Harry’s recent interview, which touched on sensitive family matters. In an effort to maintain a calmer home environment, William and Kate reportedly avoid discussing the Sussexes at all, creating what the source described as “a less stressful environment” for themselves and their children. The same insider emphasized that the couple sees the first step toward reconciliation as limiting public commentary on private family issues, with no path forward until Harry maintains discretion.
The VE Day appearance thus served as a subtle but clear signal: William and Kate are focused on family solidarity and managing public perception while navigating the ongoing rift with Prince Harry. Their coordinated behavior underscores the couple’s commitment to presenting stability to the public amid a period of heightened scrutiny.
