representation”
Rumors of a possible divorce from the couple, who have been married since 2011, have been rife following the princess’ prolonged absence with an ENT infection that kept her in South Africa for several months. He was then admitted to a specialist facility in Switzerland for “physical and emotional exhaustion”.
In the coronation photos, Charlene of Monaco and Albert II, immortalized from behind and dressed in dark colors, hold each other by the waist and kiss. If Stephen Bunard notes that “analyzing a photograph is always imperfect, because one does not have the necessary behavioral dynamics”, then he finds it difficult to believe in the sincerity of this kiss.
“These are official photos, and from this point of view, it is a presentation that they want to give us, in every sense of the word,” the expert explains. It means the photographer’s eye hasn’t fallen on anything real, whereas professionals often have this intuitive talent.”
The neutrality of Prince Albert II
Before adding: “The proof of this is that they kiss each other looking at each other’s right half of the face (how the head turns Editor’s Note): However, in a sincere kiss, in abandonment, we are in the confrontation of the left hemispheres. Maybe they did, but what they show us is not the most sincere representation of love.
The expert also emphasizes the neutrality of Prince Albert II’s expression. “It doesn’t show any other internal state on the face,” claims Stephen Bunard. He has no movement of the eyebrows or mouth, no hint of a smile, no particular drooping of the eyelids. And his head is slightly thrown back. Clichés that, according to him, fail to “show the reunion and love” between the prince and his wife. “There is no surrender, it does not convey an image of sincere love and a sincere kiss,” says the expert.
“nostalgic feeling”
Another photo from the event, in which the couple poses with their children, also caught the attention of Steven Bunard. “If a prince can draw an almost genuine smile, that’s not the case with Charlene of Monaco,” he declares. When we hide the lower part of her face, we don’t see the smiling eyes of the princess. Therefore, it is 100% social smile. In addition, his gaze is lowered, which shows us that he is in a kind of nostalgia.
The expert also notes that the princess’s head “bends opposite to Prince Albert’s head”. “However, when people form a group or a couple, the heads generally tend to come closer to each other, he analyzes. So he unknowingly disassociates himself from the group.” Despite the couple’s desire to show their found unity, “the account is not there”, concludes the specialist.
