Meghan Markle’s MasterChef body language has been analyzed by an expert, who claimed that she appeared to be “cosplaying” as a chef on the show.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Duchess of Sussex<\/a> appeared on MasterChef Australia on July 22, where contestants were tasked with making a dish “fit for a duchess.” The meal needed to be centered around a seasonal ingredient while incorporating a personal, nostalgic story.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Meghan was asked to choose these ingredients, with the mother of two opting for Australian honey, macadamia nuts, celeriac, citrus fruits, and edible flowers<\/a>, a signature touch she frequently uses on her own cooking shows. This comes as Meghan’s edible flowers were compared to “gerbil food.”<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

During Meghan’s appearance on MasterChef, which was filmed as she visited Australia in April, she tried to add personal touches to her conversations with contestants, dropping in facts about her husband, Prince Harry<\/a>, and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

For example, while introducing the ingredients, Meghan revealed that her children happily eat Brussels sprouts at home, a detail that drew a surprised “that’s impressive” from judge Poh Ling Yeow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Additionally, Meghan delved into her own culinary style, expressing that she often opts for grilled meats, fish, citrus, and relaxed cooking, telling the contestants to “remember to have fun, to keep a sense of humor about it and to cook from the heart.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Following her appearance, acclaimed body language expert Judi James spoke exclusively to the Daily Express US about Meghan’s body language in the episode.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Judi explained how the Duchess showed “authoritarian-style” mannerisms, as she told us, “As she struts in through the studio, her brows are raised, and her eye expression registers excitement. Her poise, though, is pure ‘Duchess’ to remind everyone of her status.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“Her plain black shirt and skirt are one apron away from looking like the full chef’s get-up, and there are some rather authoritarian-style gestures to give the look of someone used to being in charge in a kitchen.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Delving more into her chef’s attire, Judi claimed Meghan was “cosplaying” as a member of the culinary world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“There’s the chef cosplay look because she apparently has to line up with the other judges, projecting a level of expertise as she puts the competitors through their paces,” the expert said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Moreover, Judi noted how appearing on MasterChef may have been a “tough call” for the mother of two as she seemed to appear in two separate guises.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“There’s her duchess image with the air of elegance and specialness, but there’s also apparently a ‘not a royal’ request that means she needs to veer onto the side of ‘being herself’ rather than making the slot look too much like a royal visit,” Judi concluded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
