Kate joined the Queen in welcoming a host of NATO leaders to Buckingham Palace for the glitzy reception this evening.
Body language expert Judi James told MailOnline: ‘Despite having a companion in the car as she left to help the Queen host the NATO reception tonight, Kate’s body language meant she cut a slightly pensive and solitary figure without her husband William beside her.
‘It’s unusual to see Kate without her signature pitch-perfect smile in public but her rather distant gaze and her unsmiling expression suggested some tension or pre-event nerves.’

She added: ‘Kate’s poses at the function show her looking just as relaxed and delighted as her grandmother-in-law though, suggesting her co-hosting was a complete success.
‘Her eye-engage and her dimpled smile were back, and at one point she placed a hand to her chest and wrinkled her nose up to smile in a way that made her look happily uninhibited, showing genuine enjoyment and fun.’
Attendees tonight include the Queen, Prince Charles and Camilla, who will play host to President Trump and Melania Trump among other world leaders.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his wife Emine and Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel and Prime Minister of the Netherlands Mark Rutte were also seen arriving.
