There was a supposed "leak" of paparazzi photos of Meghan and Harry dining with Eugenie and
her husband at a Santa Barbara restaurant.
But you're about to find out all the clues that expose how these photos were staged to
look like someone broke into their privacy.
Welcome back, my body language buddies!
my name is Jesús Enrique Rosas, I'm the Body Language Guy, and it would be great if you
join us by just liking this video, subscribing and hitting that bell! let's get down to it!
It's too much of a coincidence that these pictures were 'leaked' the same day that Catherine
arrived at Copenhagen for her first FOreign visit since the pandemic.
Yes, we are used to these kind of "random events", but still.
Well... when you see the pictures, the first thing that you notice is, of course, the facial
expressions.
We are always going to focus on faces first, and other...
OH MY GOD.
Why is our forever glorious Duchess opening her mouth like that?
She reminds me of that creepy Goya painting.
Yeah, that one.
You know what's strange?
It's really nice that the paparazzi made sure that every single shot of Meghan had her laughing
or smiling, or... whatever she does with her face.
And as for Harry, well...
I'm glad that at long last, he doesn't look like he's got vitamin B deFIciency.
The paparazzi even managed to get a shot of an expression that really looks like he was
hanging out with Snoop Dogg.
Now, so far we have a very decent paparazzi that took great care to picture the Harkles
like they are really glad to be there.
It was such a coincidence that Jack was the only one with his back turned.
Uhm.
That's interesting.
Because even if Jack doesn't play much in these photos, I'm going to show you two of
them and let's see if you can spot what's odd.
Here comes the first one.
Eugenie is talking, Jack is paying attention to her, and Harry looks like they are listening
to Carpenters in the background.
That one.
But, let's take a look at the second picture.
Now we can see all four of them.
Meghan, Harry, Jack and Eugenie.
Do you notice something different?
Maybe you feel it, but can't just tell what is it.
In the first picture, you could see Harry between Jack and Eugenie, right?
but in the second you see Harry between Meghan and Jack.
It's not that they were playing musical chairs or something.
They did not move.
The one who moved was the paparazzi, because he shot the first photo from this angle, where
you can see Harry between Jack and Eugenie, and then circled around them to get Harry
Between Meghan and Jack.
Now, you might be asking, why is this relevant!
Oh, a paparazzi that can move!
how is that possible?
well, it means that the paparazzi had enough time for a) getting the best shots of the
Harkles laughing and b) he could afford to try the best angles.
Why is this important?
because we already know about Harry's legal struggle for police security in the UK, because
he can't get the same security that he has in America.
By the way, one has to be aware that there are over 4 million gun owners in California
alone.
A far cry from the six hundred thousands IN ALL THE UK.
So, his security in America would be top notch, right?
but then, how come that security lets a paparazzi get near the duchess and have all the time
in the world to take photos and eat a sandwich?
And if they want so much privacy, why are they sitting outdoors, right beside a glass
railing?
Now, I'm sure you noticed the fact that the last time Meghan went on an "undercover" shopping
spree, the names of the shops were PROminently showcased.
You know that kind of exposure is never free.
So, that's how we can guess that whatever restaurant this was, you can imagine their
reaction when someone, suspiciously with a voice that sounded a lot like Meghan's, called
them and said, "Hey, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be dining there with the Princess
of York and her husband... we would be glad to mention you in the media, for a small payment".
Hello?
So, that's how it works.
No payment, no mention.
And that's also why the paparazzi was really careful about not getting any details in the
picture that could give away the setting, or the name of the restaurant.
And that's sad, because context and surroundings are really important for any behavior analysis.
But these people have not yet realized that I have a very particular set of skills.
Skills that I have acquired over a long career, including watching Minority Report more times
than I can remember.
So, the only clues available were in this picture.
We have a metal and glass railing, we got round tables with a layered edge and this
heat lamp model.
It's not that hard to realize that they were not going to dine at any McDonald's.
Of course they were going for the cream of the crop.
With a quick Google search of upscale restaurants at Santa Barbara, it was not hard to spot
Caruso's restaurant.
When you check its photos, you confirm that they've got the same metal and glass railing,
round tables with layered edges, and yes, they have the same heating lamp models.
In other photos, you can confirm that what looks like clapboard walls behind Harry, are
also present in the official photos of the venue.
Some netizens said that this was Miramar Club, and they are right.
Caruso is in fact, a restaurant that is part of Miramar Club, so we're both right.
In fact, in Miramar Club's photos, you can see round tables with metal edges that are
the same model that the one in The Harkles photo.
Why is this important?
because it's critical to assess if the 'setting' was safe enough for Harry's security concerns.
And as you can see, Caruso is right next to the beachfront.
Here's the photo from the inside, and here's a photo from the outside.
The same ceiling deCOR, the same umbrellas at the beach.
Now, you might think that since this is part of a private club, then this has to be a private
beach, right?
well, not quite.
Here's proof that the resort was in trouble back in 2019 for closing that beach, and they
finally had to grant open access to public.
This would make sense, then, that a paparazzi would be able to sneak and take photos of
them.
But then, again, where was Harry's so called TOP NOTCH security?
Don't you think that if the Duchess of Sussex wanted to dine at the beachfront, their security
would make sure to deal with anyone suspicious, hanging out close enough to take pictures?
And yes, there are cameras that can take pictures from far away, but the photos disprove this
too.
Because everyone can see that the pictures were taken at an angle.
From bottom to top.
If you're too far away, the photos will not have an angle and would look flat.
This suppossed paparazzi never was more than 30 feet or ten meters away from them.
It still doesn't make sense that if you want privacy, you're going to dine in such an open
place.
There's also the fact that actors such as Rob Lowe have mentioned that celebrities move
to Santa Barbara, one hundred miles away from Los Angeles, so they can have some privacy.
Most REAL paparazzis do not bother traveling so far away from the action.
This was a lousy attempt at staging paparazzi photos, not to mention that they are attributed
to Backgrid, a company that is famous for staging these kind of 'encounters'.
And their relationship with the Harkles deserves its own video.
But I wanted to show you, that even if we didn't know who took these pictures, just
a bit of observation and common sense would tell you that this is pretty much like everything
the Harkles do.
Artificial.
Staged.
And I'm sure they did it to look like they are having fun, that they are enjoying their
American life, and most important: that they can just get out and feel safe there and not
in the UK.
I have already talked about why Harry needs to make that impression about the UK, that
he feels threatened there, and of course, it's not for good.
I can't wait for their next attempt at having a normal life.
