It's been noticed that the Prince and Princess of Wales quite often mirror each other's body language, even when they're carrying out separate engagements.

As William and Kate resumed their royal duties this week, their matching stride and waves were striking as they arrived at the new Royal Liverpool University Hospital in Merseyside. The pair even wore coordinating outfits in hues of navy and green.
