A lip reader has suggested that Kate Middleton made a playful remark about her husband’s appearance during a public outing last year.
According to a conversation between Kate and Sophie Wessex, decoded by a lip reading expert, it seems the princess has some opinions about Prince William’s beard.
The two were spotted chatting while attending the Remembrance Day ceremony at the Cenotaph in 2024, ahead of the two-minute silence. They both stood on the Foreign Office balcony to honor the occasion.
Speaking to The Sun, lip reader Nicola Hickling explained that she caught the pair having a cheeky exchange about Prince William’s facial hair.

According to a lip-reading expert, Sophie appeared to ask the princess, “What, you like a beard?”
Kate reportedly answered, “I find it quite rousing.”
But the cheeky exchange didn’t stop there.
Sophie is said to have replied, “You’re all better now,” before both women shared a laugh.
The lip reader also suggested that Sophie commented on the shape of her husband’s beard, despite her earlier remarks.
