A lip reader has given people an insight into Donald and Melania Trump's marriage during one of their latest appearances together as she weighs in on what they chatted about during the event.
On Saturday (14 June), members of the military marched during the US Army's 250th anniversary parade - which has since been widely criticised as 'pathetic' - in Washington DC.
The 79-year-old Republican was joined by Melania, 55, along with other members of his administration and military leaders for the parade, which also coincided with his birthday and reportedly cost approximately $45 million, according to Reuters.
In one particularly intimate moment which was caught on cameras between the couple, who tied the knot back in 2005, Trump appeared to check in with his missus, according to lip reading expert Nicola Hickling.

"Are you cold?" the father-of-five asked Melania towards the end of the parade, Nicola tells the Daily Mail.
"No, I'm okay," the first lady appeared to respond, a response acknowledged by Trump with a subtle nod.
A body language expert later weighed in on Melania's expressions during the military parade appearance and how it was reminiscent of one particular older video from 2021, which is now doing the rounds again on social media.
The throwback clip in question shows Melania smiling and grinning at her husband, before turning away and letting out what looked like a big scowl.
Commenting on the now-viral moment, speaking to Spin Genie, body language expert Darren Stanton said: “Melania did a similar thing when Trump was first inaugurated in 2016; she had a scorned look of disgust on her face when he was facing the crowd.
“But when he turned around, she pulled a huge smile across her face to look like she is proud of him, this is exactly the same."
The expert claims: "Her body language here shows a similar picture. In this video, her smile is fake - we only see the bottom half of her face engaged, which shows us she is masking her true emotions and the minute he is out of the eyeline, her face goes back to contempt.
"I think she feels slightly out of place and doesn’t want to be in the limelight here.
"Her eye roll is saying ‘here we go again’, indicating that she is pretending she is interested and happy to be there."
Tyla has previously reached out to both a representative for Melania Trump as well as the White House for comment.
