Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, recently represented King Charles III officially at a royal wedding in Jordan.
The heir to the throne and his wife made a surprise appearance at the wedding of Princess of Jordan, Rajwa Al Saif, and Crown Prince Al Hussein, King Abdullah‘s eldest son wed at a lavish ceremony at Zahran Palace in Amman.
According to a video posted in the Daily Mail, Prince William was eager for the festivities to end and wanted his wife to be less chatty.
In the clip, William, Prince of Wales, and his spouse are in line with other guests who want to congratulate the newlyweds.
Prince William had a brief chat with the Crown Prince to congratulate him. Middleton was seen talking to Princess Rajwa — it seems she was complimenting her on her wedding dress.
Once Prince William ended his conversation, he expected his wife to do the same. However, Middleton had other plans, and she wanted to talk some more; Prince William was not having it, so he made some moves that many deemed rude and more embarrassing than the Rose Hanbury drama.
Prince William watched his wife chit-chat for about 20 seconds before telling her “chop chop.” He later told her to “keep going” and moved his hand in a circular motion so that she could wrap up the conversation.
Prince William makes an unclassy move while with Kate Middleton
A royal expert weighed in on the future King‘s actions to say it was not classy. Talking to Express, body language expert Judi James said Prince William’s gestures and words were overly dominant, and he looked like a parent scolding a naughty child.
She told the publication: “This is not one of [William’s] finest moments when it comes to either body language or words. While he has clearly moved on from the meet and greet with the bride and groom, Kate stands talking to the bride in an animated and very friendly way.”
James tore into Prince William’s behavior by saying there was no logical reason for the humiliating moment.
She stated: “She is not causing a ‘log jam’ [by] holding up the queue, and the next guests are still talking to the groom, so there appears to be no logical reason for William to hurry his wife along, especially as she only adds a few seconds to the conversation. Whether he says ‘chop chop,’ his hand gesture alone is bad enough, with a winding gesture that would normally imply that time is running out.”
She added: “His behavior is overly dominant here, with his critical parent behavior putting her firmly in the implied role of a naughty child. The prince was being rude here.”
James went on to applaud Kate Middleton for the manner she reacted to her husband’s “chop chop” moment. The Princess of Wales chose to ignore the heir to the throne.
She was also praised for wanting to spend time with the people she had just met, while her husband seemed above it all. The commentator concluded by saying that Prince William could have come up with a better and more loving solution.
She suggested: “He could have walked back to stand beside his wife and used a subtle tie sign, like a small part of the waist or back. Most couples have subtle rituals that they use to communicate silently in public that doesn’t entail any obvious impatience, and the Waleses are normally very adept at these techniques.”
Kate Middleton has accepted Prince William’s tantrums
It was recently revealed that Kate Middleton is the one who treats Prince William “like a fourth child.” A source, who works in Kensington Palace, spoke to author Tom Quinn to explain Middleton treats the future King the same way she does their three young children — George, 9, Charlotte, 8, and Louis, 5.
The expert told Express: “Kate treats him [William] like the fourth child because he’s prone to tantrums.”
The author claimed the marriage is not perfect and added: “They have terrific rows. But, where some couples have a row and throw heavy vases at each other, William and Kate throw cushions at each other. It’s always kept under control.”
The Royal Family has a new drama on its hand.
