King Charles shows ‘impatience’ to Camilla with ‘moment of tension’ at Scottish Coronation
King Charles was "in husband mode" today at his royal ceremony in St Giles's Cathedral in Edinburgh, a body language expert exclusively told Express.co.uk.
Protesters arrive in Edinburgh ahead of King's service
King Charles III and Queen Camilla celebrated a National Service of Thanksgiving and Dedication in Scotland today.
The King and Queen arrived at St Giles's Cathedral in Edinburgh to mass protests, with crowds of people chanting "Not My King".
However, this has "no visible effect" on King Charles, according to Judi James, a body language expert who spoke exclusively to Express.co.uk.
She said: "This more intimate service presented not just the King, as the Coronation had, but a very even-status placing of Kate, William, Charles and Camilla.
"This suggested a message of continuity and the enduring status of the monarchy.
"It also made the service more of a family event but pared down to these four royal ‘stars’ alone."
The body language expert explained whether or not the booing had an impact on the King and Queen.
Judi explained: "The boos and the chanting had no visible effect on Charles’s facial expression but he did seem to fuss more over Camilla, as though keen to get her inside the venue and seated.
"At his London Coronation, he had appeared simply as King but here he was also in husband mode, turning to see Camilla safely from the car, with some impatient hand-flicking gestures showing moments of tension."

Reaction: Republic campaigner accuses King Charles of being racist in furious rant against royals
Anti-monarchy protesters gathered in Edinburgh, Scotland on Wednesday as the King received his second Coronation and one of the campaigners has spoken out.
Judi explained why this was a "rare" gesture from the King towards his wife of 18 years.
She commented: "He rarely sees it as part of his duties to check Camilla in and out of cars they are using so this checking trait might just have been protective, thanks to the chanting."
Queen Camilla looked gorgeous today wearing a long white dress designed by Bruce Oldfield.
In addition, she wore the late Queen Elizabeth’s thistle robe and hat, including the star and collar.
Today was the National Service of Thanksgiving and Dedication for King Charles III and Queen Camilla.
This included the presentation of the Honours (the Scottish crown jewels) which were presented to the new King.
The service was based on a similar service held at St Giles's Cathedral 70 years ago to mark the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
But unlike the 1953 service, the Stone of Destiny, on which ancient Scottish Kings were crowned, was present in the cathedral.
