Lip reader reveals what cheeky Louis asked George from carriage
George, 11, with his cheeky younger brother Louis, seven, were spotted arriving for the King's birthday celebrations were seen grinning and deep in conversation as the open carriage rolled along the Mall A lip reader has revealed what Prince Louis asked his brother Prince George as the royals arrived for Trooping the Colour today. Cheers erupted from the crowds as George, 11, with his cheeky younger brother Louis, seven, were spotted arriving for the King's birthday celebrations. The two brothers were seen grinning and deep in conversation as the open carriage rolled along the Mall on a glorious sunny morning. Now, a professional reader has revealed exactly what she thinks the young pair were talking about. The expert told The Sun how Louis asks George: "Should I wave?" George then turns to his younger brother and is said to have replied: "It's up to you, I can't believe how sunny it is.' Louis then says "let's do it together" before the brothers wave to the cheering crowds, the lip reader revealed. Prince Louis showed off a major change at Trooping the Colour yesterday - but still had Prince George and Princess Charlotte to keep him on track, according to an expert. The seven-year-old who has long delighted the crowds at major royal events thanks to his cheeky personality was back again charming royal fans. And while charming spectators, body language expert Judi James believes he gave a glimpse into his potential future. She told the Mirror: "Prince Louis's body language on the balcony suggested he's grown from the playful member of the royal firm into a fully fledged plane-spotter. "He looked more focused than fidgety, watching each aircraft as they flew overhead before turning to his dad in what looked like an attempt to identify them. The avid nods from William and the smiles of pride from Kate suggested he was correct with them all, too. With a father and grandad both pilots, there are signs this might be a future career for Louis. "He is also a very confident-looking young royal too. Charles nudged him to chat and Louis was the one lingering longest to wave to the crowds, only turning to go in when Charlotte ushered him." During the balcony moment, members could be seen chatting to each other as the planes flew over the palace. Spectators in The Mall cheered as the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team – the Red Arrows – flew overhead releasing colourful trails of red, white, and blue smoke. This year marks the third Trooping the Colour parade of Charles' reign. The colour – regimental flag – being trooped this year is the King's Colour of Number 7 Company Coldstream Guards, also known as the sovereign's bodyguard and which is celebrating its 375th anniversary this year.
