The caption continued, “Today, His Majesty surprised Gabby and owner Pam to congratulate them on their triumph as part of his visit to the Dumfries House estate. Congratulations, Gabby!”
In the video, King Charles looks completely at ease, dressed casually in tan slacks, a forest green jacket and black shoes, as he tosses Gabby a treat, gives her some well-earned pets and chats with her handler. He’s smiling, relaxed and just seems content. In a nutshell, he appears very comfortable.
This kind of calm presence is something we’ve seen from Charles before, most recently during his visit to Balmoral Castle in August. Body language expert Darren Stanton, speaking on behalf of Betfair Slots, noted how naturally comfortable the King appeared.
“What stands out immediately is how relaxed and genuinely happy he looks at Balmoral,” Stanton said. “This is the place where he grew up, where so many of his happiest memories with his parents were formed; and that emotional connection comes through very clearly in his body language.”
