A lip reader has revealed the humorous question that Prince Louis purportedly asked his father, William, on VE Day 80. The commemoration of VE (Triumph in Europe) Day, which honors the Allies’ victory over Adolf Hitler’s Germany in WWII, began on Monday, May 5. A few days before Thursday’s official VE Day, the Prince and Princess of Wales, along with their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, waved to hundreds of spectators from the palace balcony as the Red Arrows flew over Buckingham Palace.

During the VE Day march, Louis, then seven, sat next to the 42-year-old future King, who was dressed in his military uniform. As they watched the military march, the little king was spotted wiping the water from his father’s clothing. William then appeared to pat his child on the thigh as he turned to face him. Nicola Hickling, a lip-reading expert, has revealed what she believes the chat was about.

“Look at this,” she told The Sun, “I think it’s going to be quite wet today.” “Wasn’t this supposed to be fun?” Louis reportedly replied. William supposedly responded to the mischievous remark by saying, “It is son,” and “You will never forget this.” “They will come along here, and then go towards there, and then we will make our way back,” he told me. “It’s not going to be long and I want you to be taking an interest.”

In addition, the lip reader reported that Princess Kate had a loving message for her 10-year-old daughter Charlotte. “Doesn’t papa look smart today,” Hickling added. Following the spectacle, Prince George, 11, and his parents attended a veterans’ tea party. Alfred Littlefield, a 101-year-old Royal Engineers veteran who participated on D-Day, was interviewed.

First, William informed veteran Douglas Hyde, who entered the Navy at the age of 18 in 1944, that his son was “very enthusiastic” to ask the former serviceman some questions after George appeared to like listening in on his father’s conversation with Littlefield. Samantha Davidson, 58, Littlefield’s granddaughter from Denmead in Hampshire, told PA that “the Prince said George is very interested in finding out about the veterans.”

“George even asked my grandfather how old he was during his service.” According to her, Littlefield was overjoyed to learn about George’s historical interest. Littlefield said, “I’m very proud.”
