<p id=”par-6_16″>Now, he’s sharing the one key gesture that proves Jackman and Foster are closer than ever.</p>
<p id=”par-7_88″>Analyzing for <a href=”https://casino.betfair.com/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Betfair Casino</a> photos and video ‘s their appearance on the red carpet together, Stanton told Showbiz Cheat Sheet: “These are some really interesting photos of Hugh and Sutton together — especially when it comes to what they tell us about their relationship. There are really genuine smiles from both. They’ve both got laugh lines and crow’s feet near their eyes, which denote genuine happiness and fun. They’re both displaying microexpressions of joy in all of the photos, and there’s a real authenticity coming from Hugh and his partner.</p>
<p id=”par-8_104″>“In terms of public displays of affection, there’s an interesting shot with his arm around the bottom of her back and his fingers spread out. This is a power gesture, which alludes to the fact that he’s feeling extremely confident and comfortable in that environment to show that level of PDA. It’s not over the top in any sense, but he’s just extremely comfortable in his actions with Sutton. The bottom of the back is known for being a proximal zone reserved for romantic partners. This shows us that Hugh and Sutton are deeply in love, with great closeness and a level of rapport.”</p>

<p id=”par-9_16″>The expert also spoke about what he saw from the <em>Younger </em>star that shows she’s “subservient.”</p>
<p id=”par-10_45″>“There’s also another great shot of them standing side by side, and she’s tilting her body towards him. That means she’s subservient, but not in a negative sense,” Stanton explained. “She’s giving him his power and letting him lead the way on the red carpet.</p>
<p id=”par-11_38″>“Overall, the pictures show the couple as being their confident and authentic selves. They definitely seem comfortable around each other, showing authentic joy and happiness at being at the event. She’s very comfortable, and he is showing PDA.”</p>
