She was probably protecting him from a very visible misstep


Everybody here should know the impossibility of trying to interpret interactions between couples - sheesh.

Spouses holding hands in public is frowned upon, if not prohibited, in conservative Islamic cultures and Saudi Arabia is as conservative as they come. Odds are she knew that - but he forgot since his briefers had been stuffing his head with do's and don'ts for days - and this was the equivalent of a kick under the table when a spouse is starting to say or do something that the other spouse wants to stop asap.

Can't believe I'm defending the guy, but the constant sniping is likely to have the opposite effect eventually - there are going to be plenty of real battles to pick.
