A Lip Reader Shows Kate Middleton and Sophie Wessex Talking

The Princess of Wales made an incredible appearance at the Remembrance Service in London on November 10. Her lively conversation with the Duchess of Edinburgh at the Cenotaph’s Remembrance Sunday service attracted a lot of attention. After completing cancer treatment, the 42-year-old Princess of Wales is once again making an impression on public life.

In March, she initially shared with the world her experience with “preventative” care. In July, she was spotted dazzling with Princess Charlotte at the 2024 Wimbledon tournament, when she was warmly welcomed by the audience.

Within a few months, Kate also praised Team GB’s accomplishments in the 2024 Olympics in a video congratulating Prince William. When she revealed in a heartwarming video that she had defeated cancer and was finally free following chemotherapy, the royal family and the general public joined in her celebration by September.

Kate attended the poignant Remembrance event this past weekend alongside King Charles III and other members of the royal family. Due to a chest infection, Queen Camilla was conspicuously absent. Instead of standing alone on the central balcony as planned, Kate was joined by Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, on a balcony close by.

Together, the two royals observed the wreath-laying ritual in remembrance of those who lost their lives in the World Wars and other conflicts. They were caught on camera having a lengthy talk during this significant televised event.

Kayleigh Harris, a lip reader, shared some intriguing interpretations of their conversation with The Sun. According to Harris, Sophie supposedly replied, “Yes, and especially…” when Kate said, “She will be supported in this,” but the remainder is unclear.

Additionally, Kate seemed to remark, “It’s so special,” and add, “You’re never quite ready for this.” Sophie seemed to concur, saying, “Yes, absolutely.” Other experts also took notice of these insights. Judi James, a body language expert, told The Mirror that Sophie’s gesture of putting her gloved hand on Kate’s had a deeper meaning that was intended for Prince William.

James observed, “Sophie took on a supportive role for William during his absence.” She was on the terrace directly next to Kate. Sophie served as a vigilant ally, much like Anne did with Charles, while Kate exuded confidence in the position formerly occupied by the late Queen.


James’s additional analysis revealed that Sophie tapped Kate gently on the back after she entered. In addition to demonstrating her parental love and support for her niece-in-law, this gesture gave William peace of mind that Kate would be well taken care of even while he wasn’t there.
