Expert Says Olivia Rodrigo Is Different In New Romance

Olivia Rodrigo‘s latest public outing with rumored boyfriend Julian Croonenberghs may have looked like another sweet date to fans, but according to a body language expert, the singer’s affectionate display revealed far more than simple chemistry.

After the pair packed on the PDA during a laid-back day in New York City, expert Inbaal Honigman believes the “Vampire” hitmaker is showing signs of a dramatic evolution in how she approaches romance, suggesting she’s more confident, emotionally open, and secure than in previous relationships.

After photos of Olivia Rodrigo and Julian Croonenberghs embracing in a New York park surfaced online, body language expert Inbaal Honigman analyzed the couple’s interactions and concluded that the singer appeared captivated by her new partner.

“Olivia is seen glancing up at Julian, her mouth is dropped open as if in awe of him,” Honigman, speaking via Casino.org Canada, explained while analyzing the photographs. “The singing star’s smile is mixed with a rounded mouth shape, signifying a sense of wonder. She is clearly smitten.”

According to the expert, Rodrigo’s facial expressions also point to genuine happiness rather than a carefully staged public appearance.

“Her cheeks are rounded and raised, which suggests happiness,” Honigman added.

Julian Croonenberghs Reacted Differently To Olivia Rodrigo’s Affection

While Rodrigo appeared completely focused on Croonenberghs, the private equity associate displayed a slightly different response.

“Julian himself is seen glancing away from Olivia momentarily, as if her direct eye contact is too intense for him,” Inbaal Honigman observed. “He might be overwhelmed by the sheer emotion directed at him.”

Although the chemistry between the pair appeared undeniable, Inbaal Honigman believes their body language also suggested they’re still settling into the relationship.

“The pair both use some protective body language moves,” she explained.

She pointed to Rodrigo resting two fingers against her chin while Croonenberghs positioned his hands protectively in front of his body.

Honigman said, “Olivia’s pointer and middle fingers are on her chin, covering part of her face, which is a protective gesture, while Julian’s hands are in front of him, protecting his body.”

Rather than viewing those gestures negatively, Honigman interpreted them as signs of a romance that is still in its early stages.

She said, “This abundance of protective moves could say that they’re still getting used to each other’s company.”

She also noted that while the couple stood close together, they weren’t completely absorbed in one another, noting, “Their torsos are facing the same way forwards, slightly angled towards one another, indicating that they’re giving each other attention, but not all the attention.”

Despite those early relationship nerves, Honigman believes the couple’s posture points toward compatibility.

“That their bodies face the same way is a sign that their goals are aligned and they’re on the same life path as each other,” she explained.

She also highlighted the confidence both displayed while standing together.

Honigman said,”Both Olivia and Julian are standing confidently, their feet firmly on the ground, shoulder width apart.”

The expert added, “This strong ‘hero’ stance shows comfort and confidence, meaning that they are developing feelings of trust in each other, and that they know they’ve got each other’s backs.”

Those observations align with what fans witnessed during the pair’s recent New York outing, where the couple appeared relaxed while sharing affectionate moments and enjoying each other’s company away from the spotlight.

One of Honigman’s most striking observations came when she compared Rodrigo’s current demeanor with photographs from previous relationships.

According to the expert, the Grammy winner projects far more confidence now than she did with former partners.

Honigman said, “In comparison, old photos of Olivia with former flames feature her head lowered, her shoulders rolled inwards, and overall much more timid body language than what we see here with Julian.”

Rather than appearing hesitant, Rodrigo now seems far more secure in expressing affection publicly.

The body language expert noted, “She used to be more submissive in love, but has grown into becoming a more assertive girlfriend.”

Honigman believes that transformation is visible throughout the latest photographs.

She concluded, “Her romantic growth is expressed in Olivia’s increased confidence of strong, angled poses, and fearless adoration of her new beau as she gazes up and straight into his face.”
