King Charles was overheard discussing a concern regarding Prince Harry with Queen Camilla during Trooping the Colour, according to a lip reader.
As they rode in a carriage along The Mall, the royal couple greeted thousands of onlookers with smiles and waves.
However, lip reader Nicola, on behalf of Fruity King, claims that the monarch, 76, and his wife, 77, were having a discreet discussion about an issue involving Harry. The exchange comes on the heels of Harry revealing to the BBC last month that the monarch refuses to communicate with him.
According to Nicola, Charles instructed Camilla to "wave and smile so that we can keep talking" as they interacted with the crowd. Camilla then allegedly inquired: "Yes. What else did he want?" Charles responded: "He keeps dragging it all up, there seems to be another issue, right now."

The lip reader asserted that the conversation was indeed centred around Prince Harry.
Nicola also reported that Camilla asked her husband: "What are you going to do about it?". Charles replied: "We will tackle it sooner or later, it's all very messy and I will talk to Harry. That'll be fun."
Camilla's alleged retort was: "Oh yes, problematic." Today's ceremony marks another year that Prince Harry has been absent from proceedings. The last time that the 40-year-old made an appearance at the event was in 2022.
During another discussion between the King and Queen Camilla, lip reader Jeremy Freeman told the Scottish Daily Express that the King could be seen saying: "Absolutely crazy, disgrace, absolutely extraordinary."

Later, the 76-year-old then reportedly said: "On my way out", before adding: "Meanwhile, not like me. That's the difference between me and him."
While it is unclear as to exactly what or who King Charles was referring to, it comes amid an ongoing dispute between him and Prince Andrew about the future of the Royal Lodge.
Despite the underlying tension, both King Charles and Queen Camilla appeared delighted at the event, an annual tradition commemorating the monarch's official birthday celebrations.
Away from his discussions with Queen Camilla, the festivities passed without any noticeable hiccups, with King and Queen seen alongside their younger family members, including Prince William and Princess Kate, as well as their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
Other members of the Royal Family present at the event included Princess Anne, Duchess Sophie and Prince Edward. The event wrapped up this afternoon with a magnificent flypast.

TV presenter Amy Irons can't wait to celebrate this year's Pride of Scotland winners
The broadcaster hails the unsung heroes set to be honoured at our People's Oscars BBC presenter Amy Irons has interviewed world-class actors, footballers and musicians but admits it's the unsung heroes at our Pride of Scotland Awards who leave her starstruck. The News at Seven anchor said every year our inspirational winners blow her away and their stories have her reaching for the tissues. Amy, 34, who has stocked up on waterproof mascara for next week's glittering ceremony, said: 'Every time I go to the Pride of Scotland Awards I end up crying the whole way through. 'Seeing people who are so deserving of recognition and don't realise it themselves is totally humbling and although their stories leave me a blubbering wreck they also uplift my soul. 'These modest and caring individuals have all achieved the extraordinary and never look for recognition so seeing them celebrated is a beautiful thing. 'You only have to look at how many big stars come every year to support the event to realise just how worthy all the winners in that room are.' Amy, who will be among a host of celebrities walking the red carpet at our 2025 People's Oscars on Monday 23, added: 'Last year's community champions Sarah Miller and Molly Cudihy left a lasting impression on me. 'The best friends met in hospital while undergoing cancer treatment as teenagers and despite their own health battles managed to raise more than £300,000 to support other sick children. 'Their selflessness really struck a chord with me - at the lowest and hardest point in their lives their first thoughts were for others. They are just remarkable young girls.' Amy, who is the daughter of former Dunfermline and Partick Thistle player Davie Irons, said the Awards also highlight the impact Scottish bravehearts are making all over the world. The Sportscene presenter, who hosted the BBC's high-profile Hogmanay 2024 show, said: 'Scots are making a huge difference in every corner of the world. 'Just look at 2024 winner firefighter John Aitchison who was deployed to Nepal following the devastating 2015 earthquake and was so moved by what he saw that he returned to provide aid and has set up Everest's first fire and rescue service. 'Scotland is jam packed with unsung heroes who are not only making a big impact on their own communities but are leaving a mark across the globe.' Joining Amy on the red carpet at the Daily Record Pride of Scotland Awards with P&O Cruises will be a host of stars including singer Susan Boyle, Game of Thrones star James Cosmo, Sheli McCoy aka Sabre the Gladiator and Strictly stars JJ Chalmers and Dr Punam Krishan. The TV personality, who started in broadcasting 10 years ago and has become one of the most popular presenters on the box, said: 'Pride of Scotland is the biggest event in the Awards calendar and the wealth of stars, sports people, politicians and musicians who attend is phenomenal. 'But for me the unsung heroes will always be the biggest stars of the night and no movie star or celebrity will ever outshine them.' Amy, who hosts popular podcast Sacked in the Morning podcast with former Scotland manager Craig Levein, admitted her personal Pride of Scotland is her mum Fiona Hird. The broadcaster, whose brother Lewis, 32, does match commentaries on the radio for Sportsound and the TV for Sportscene, said: 'I know I am biased but my mum is one of life's unsung heroes who goes above and beyond for everyone else. 'For the past 20 years she has been working with Fabb Scotland providing Respite weekends for disabled young people and on top of that she is now Chief Exec of Glasgow's Golden Generation charity which tackles loneliness among the elderly. She also cares for my granny who has dementia. 'Like all the winners recognised at Pride she goes about what she does quietly and never seeks recognition. She is truly one in a million.' Amy is still pondering what to wear on the red carpet at the glitzy event, which will be hosted by Sanjeev Kohl and Elaine C Smith. She said: 'It's nice to have the opportunity to get all dressed up and celebrate all that is good about Scotland. I haven't settled on an outfit yet but I will be bringing a handbag to hide all my tissues in. It's going to be another emotional and uplifting night.'

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.
