Topics: Royal Family, Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, Prince William, Kate Middleton
A lip reader has revealed what was allegedly said between Prince William and Kate Middleton during their last public interaction with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry as senior royals.
Casting your mind back to 2020 is hard for numerous reasons, but the Commonwealth Day Service of that year was Harry and Meghan's final engagement as working members of the royal family.
And according to a lip reader, William and Kate appeared to share a few whispers about the couple during the occasion while in the row in front of them at Westminster Abbey.
The two royal couples were reportedly asked by the late Queen not to join in on the official royal procession, which a Daily Mail source said the Sussexes felt 'quite emotional' about.

The seemingly awkward encounter was captured on video and broadcast to the world, which I'm sure they greatly appreciated.
According to the Daily Star, lip reader Jeremy Freeman believes that after the couples greeted one another, Harry allegedly turned to his wife and said: "At least they acknowledged, unlike last time."
It was also alleged that William sat down, turned to Kate, and said: "That was executed well. It's quite good to connect instead of holding things back like always."
According to the lip reader, the future king added: "I know it's bad, I ought to have words with him. He'll shout and God knows what but things'll change, won't it?"
But it wasn't the only way that the 'Fab Four' were analysed during the occasion.
Speaking to Cosmopolitan, a body language expert claimed that Kate seemed 'expressionless'.
Blanca Cobb said: "As Meghan waves, she and Harry say hi. Kate doesn’t look in their direction but talks briefly to the lady in white [Sophie, Countess of Wessex] who’s seated right behind her. As Kate sits down, her face is expressionless."
She also noted more generally that the greeting felt pretty 'lackluster' between the two couples.
Cobb added: "Even though it’s a formal occasion, Kate could have smiled or waved."
Just after the Commonwealth Day, which took place on 9 March, it was Harry and Meghan's final day as working royals on 31 March.
Despite this, they announced they were leaving and moving to the US in January 2020.
The couple have since launched many projects, particularly Meghan, who now has her own podcast, Netflix show, and lifestyle brand.
