Kate Middleton has amazed royal fans and experts with her ‘leadership skills

Kate Middleton has amazed royal fans and experts with her ‘leadership skills’ during the Royal tour of Caribbean.

The Duchess of Cambridge ‘steered Prince William’ with ‘laughter and happy smiles’ during the protest-hit tour, according to a body language expert.

Prince William’s sweetheart was ‘confident’ yet ‘assertive’ and ’emerged as a future Queen’, body language expert Judi James has claimed.

The expert said the mother-of-three had appeared as a Queen-in-waiting throughout the tour.

‘William and Kate’s professional and emotional double-act has probably never looked stronger than it does on this tour and it is a testament to both of them that Kate’s signals of power and signs of leadership have been revealed openly and with what looks like a welcome response from her husband.’

Speaking to FEMAIL, Judi explained how the Duchess has taken the lead on the international trip, proving herself to be ‘much more than a mere consort’ to the Duke.

Judi explained: ‘It would be hard to over-emphasise the version of Kate we have been seeing during this royal tour and how vital her impact is going to be on the dynamic of the Firm in the future.”
