Kate now appears confident with herself and carries herself elegantly, with integrity and truthfulness.

[{"selector":"#anim-7003fac8-f943-4242-876b-0d9f5918dff4 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(-9.808612468384254%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-245e6053-1f8c-484e-b9c5-86512085a7c6","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-dece55bc-e634-4773-949c-81e691690e51","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Her body language is completely congruent with the confident person she has become.

[{"selector":"#anim-2c19b3f3-3198-438d-9f1c-f1dba6f86af7 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(24.961108708299903%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-623af1cd-242c-4ee1-976a-a245b03ffa00","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c184a5ec-9fef-44d2-b8e1-72eb93be910c","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Kate has adopted a far greater level of self-assurance and has grown into her own person.

At the recent BAFTAs, Kate was often seen walking alone with confidence and ease.

She has become a significant member of the royal family.
