In fact, that was his identity for 73 years.
At least that’s what his demeanor at the time tells body language expert Jess Ponce.
“His gestures,” he elaborated, “Specifically, his meticulous upward hand movements show confidence.
He is certain and comfortable.
He appropriately showed up exactly as he needed to in this moment.”
“This is one of King Charles' shining moments,” Jess Ponce says.
“He was both appropriately royal and deeply personal.”
This is a sign of emotion and respect for both the mom he loved and the figurehead he revered.
His cadence was assuring and warm.
The second agenda, as Ponce put it, was to “get down to business.”
Ponce felt that Charles “handled both [agendas] appropriately.
But overall, it was a formal moment that will be noted as unremarkable in years to come.”
The moment, however, did not have the weight of previous addresses.
This was more a business-as-usual address."
“Throughout his life, we have seen King Charles in public configs.
“In all of these parameters, he is royal and appropriate.
Yet, he is consistently understated.”
He is not someone who physically has a strong, noble stature.
However, when he engages others with his warm smile, you see everyone around him light up.
And it will be this more personal touch that will make his reign as king stand out.”
His strength is when he speaks and addresses people.
Put him on stage and the performer within takes over.
He’s likable and warm."
