"She displays what looks like a genuine Duchenne smile: the cheeks lift, the eyes narrow softly, and the smile reaches the upper face, suggesting authentic enjoyment rather than a performed expression," Darren Stanton continued. "Her posture is open and forward-leaning when she engages with others, which generally signals interest and enthusiasm. She radiates genuine happiness."

While promoting With Love, Meghan, Meghan Markle called her royal life "inauthentic" and boasted that she finally gets to be herself now — something Darren Stanton noticed.
"She seems genuinely energized by the interactions taking place on the show. Her gestures are fluid and congruent with her speech, indicating ease rather than a rehearsed presentation," Stanton said. "There's also consistent mutual engagement with the guests; they mirror her expressions and lean-ins, which typically reflects positive rapport."

"She projects genuine happiness, approachability and enjoyment. She is confident, upbeat, and completely at ease," Darren Stanton continued. "Her expressions and body language convey someone who is pleased to be hosting the show and who is receiving that same warmth back from the people around her. She is clearly genuinely enjoying this chapter of her professional life."
