The Princess of Wales joined members of the royal family at the weekend, including King Charles, as they marked Remembrance Sunday at The Cenotaph.

The monarch, 75, looked tearful at the service as he and senior royals laid wreaths at the memorial in London. He was joined by the Prince of Wales, Princess Anne and Prince Edward. Queen Camilla wasn’t at the event due to a recent chest infection.

Meanwhile, Kate, Princess of Wales, and the Duchess of Edinburgh watched on from a balcony and fans spotted a sweet moment between them.

A lip reader also shared what Kate apparently said about husband William’s new beard.

Elsewhere, a lip reader has suggested that Kate had to say about William’s new facial hair. Many royal fans have loved seeing William with a beard.

According to lip reader Nicola Hickling, who spoke to The Sun, Sophie asked the Princess of Wales “you like a beard?”

Kate reportedly replied: “I find it quite rousing.”

Sophie then said, apparently: “You’re all better now,” as they laughed.
