A lip reader has decoded a private exchange between King Charles and Queen Camilla during the Trooping the Colour procession in London, revealing the monarch's apparent frustration. The event, marking the King's official birthday, saw the Royal Family unite for the traditional carriage parade.
Lip-reading expert Nicola Hickling analysed footage for the Daily Express, interpreting that King Charles told Queen Camilla: 'I'm in a right mess.' The exchange reportedly began with Charles saying, 'Could you get up? It's trapped, I need to pull it out so I am comfortable,' prompting Camilla to stand to free his coat.
In another clip, the King instructed, 'Come on, let's wave,' before engaging in a cryptic discussion about an engagement on Monday. Charles said, 'I'm in a right mess, (mumbles) it's a mess,' to which Camilla replied, 'Oh, don't worry.' Charles added, 'We shall wait and see them on Monday; it must be done.'
The Princess of Wales and her children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—watched from a window overlooking Horse Guards Parade. Spectators lined The Mall as the Sovereign's Escort, led by the Household Cavalry, accompanied the royal carriage from Buckingham Palace.
