appears 'tense and protective' in interviews discussing the fallout of the  saga, a body language expert said today. <br>Judi James noted that the WAG keeps her eyes to the floor during the exchanges before looking up when she is seeking to 'gain empathy'. <br>Ms James, who has authored 26 books on body language, contrasted Mrs Vardy's 'emotional' display in the interviews with TalkTV and The Sun against her steely show in court. <br>'Her appearances during the trial involved tailored, dour business suits; immaculate, severe hairstyling and a raised chin and focused staring ahead that seemed to signal decisiveness, strength and vindication,' she told MailOnline. <br>'Her recent Instagram photo showed a punk warrior, walking away from the camera throwing a defiant V sign.<br>'Now we are being shown a pared-down, bare-faced and tousled-hair Rebekah during these interview clips, leaking emotional hints and cues like a sieve as her body performs the equivalent of a more self-contained poker face.'<br>      (image:  )    Judi James noted how Rebekah Vardy kept her eyes to the floor during the exchanges before looking up when she is seeking to 'gain empathy' <br>      (image:  )    She also contrasted Mrs Vardy's 'emotional' display in the interviews with TalkTV and The Sun against her steely show in court<br>A High Court judge ruled on Friday that the 40-year-old had leaked stories about Mrs Rooney to The Sun with her former agent Caroline Watt.<br>But in a short clip released ahead of the interview tonight on TalkTV, mother-of-five Mrs Vardy tries to restore her reputation, insisting she ‘did not do it' and saying she feels ‘let down by the legal system'.<br>The clip ended with Rebekah, the wife of Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy, bowing her head with tears in her eyes. <br>Meanwhile, in a second televised interview with The Sun, Mrs Vardy revealed the moment she asked Coleen Rooney: 'What the f*** is this?' following her now infamous Wagatha Christie post, in which she was accused of leaking a slew of stories about her WAG rival to the press.  <br>  RELATED ARTICLES                  Share this article Share    Ms James described Mrs Vardy's body pose in the clips as 'intentionally un-communicative, tense and self-protective'.<br>'Her chair is angled slightly towards the cameras and her leg is crossed away from the interviewer in a closed, barriered gesture,' she said. <br>'Her hands are clasped carefully to the side of her lap and this clasp seems to prevent any emotional leakage during these clips, even though at one point we can see them undulating as though she is trying to contain her emotions.'<br>      The body language expert suggested her eyes betrayed a similar determination not to reveal her true feelings.<br>'In these clips Rebekah's eye movements suggest a desire to shield her thoughts via some cut-off rituals,' she said. <br>'She is often looking downward as she speaks, with an eye-dart suggesting she is recalling what happened.  When she looks up it tends to be at the end of her statements here.<br>'She seems to look up more easily when she is trying to gain empathy.

Now we are being shown a pared-down, bare-faced and tousled-hair Rebekah during these interview clips, leaking emotional hints and cues like a sieve as her body performs the equivalent of a more self-contained poker face'<br>Ms James said: 'The most emotional hint or facial expression of distress comes as she talks of her children and her chin begins to pucker and lift slightly in what can often signal the start of tears.<br>'The moment her head jerks and falls down to her lap in another clip looks dramatic but is less revealing as she is performing a cut-off by hiding her face and in the clip we only get to see what looks like a gulping movement as she looks up again.' <br>Mrs Vardy also discussed the moment she phoned Mrs Rooney after her famous Instagram post accusing her of leaking stories.  <br>Analysing her body language when talking about her rival, Ms James said: 'When Rebekah relates her contact with Coleen her micro facial movements suggest disgust and rejection. <br>'In many ways she mimes the ritual of a baby rejecting food.  Her browns pucker into a frown, her top lip curls upward and she even performs a tongue-poke as her head shakes from side to side.'<br>  'My phone imploded… I said Coleen, what the f*** is this?'
