The whole thing is rubbish, in my opinion. Kate Middleton’s smile in this christening photo looks no different than how she’s appeared in other similar shoots. The Daily Mail‘s body language expert even backed this up, adding that her pose could just be a case of her wanting to “lower her own status signals and not upstage the happy couple.”

And if Prince William seems “sour” in the picture, it probably has nothing to do with his feelings toward his brother. Maybe he’s tired. Maybe he’s hungry. Maybe he’s annoyed because he’d rather be watching Love Island on his couch than posing for photos. Wouldn’t we all?

At the end of the day, none of us know the real story behind Harry, William, Meghan, and Kate’s relationship⁠—but to suggest that the Cambridges were miserable during Archie’s christening seems like a stretch. They’re adults. While they probably weren’t thrilled about spending the day taking stuffy photos with their in-laws, they know it’s a part of the gig. Even the closest of siblings would find posing for formal portraits together all day annoying.

And furthermore, royals expert told Katie Nicholl told Glamour a few months back that reports of a feud between the couples is overblown. “I do think there is some truth to there having been some tension—not just between the duchesses but between the dukes, as well,” she said. “As we all know, things can gather momentum pretty quickly. So while I think there’s been tension, I don’t believe there has been some feud.”
