Lip Reader Uncovers ‘Gutted’ Prince William’s 1-Word Insult at ‘Tense’ Sporting Event
While the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) was making headlines around the world for her public appearance at Wimbledon with daughter, Princess Charlotte. Prince William was making some as well when he attended the Euro 2024 Final between England and Spain with their son, Prince George, in Berlin, Germany.
Fans all over watched the children and their parents reacting to the sporting events they attended. The matches both had drama but for William and George the end result wasn’t the outcome they had hoped for the Three Lions. And apparently such a tense match had the Prince of Wales in no mood to chat, according to a lip reader who caught William using an insult when a woman tried to talk to him.
Lip-reading expert catches the 1 word Prince William said when approached during the match
As Prince William and his eldest child were trying to watch the game, an unknown woman approached them and appeared to want to speak with the heir to the British throne.
Lip reader Nicola Hinkling told the Mirror that “William wasn’t having any of it and said it ‘was already requested. When he sat down, he muttered under his breath the word ‘sausage.'”
William, who is president of England’s Football Association, took to social media with a message after the loss writing: “This time it just wasn’t meant to be. We’re all still so proud of you. Onwards England. W.” And in a separate Instagram post with a photo of Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis watching the game from home, he congratulated Spain on winning the match.
Body language expert says ‘gutted’ William wants to be known as the ‘people’s prince’
Darren Stanton is a body language and behavioral expert with a degree in psychology. He previously worked as a police officer and used his expertise to uncover the truth when interviewing hundreds of suspects. He later moved into media and TV as a consultant and has been dubbed the “Human Lie Detector.” Now, Stanton has analyzed the Prince of Wales’ demeanor and his roller coaster of emotions throughout the match, and talked about how he was “gutted” when England lost.
Speaking on behalf of Betfair Slots Stanton explained: “William is a very competitive guy. He loves his sport, so he felt everything England were going through last night – especially when Spain beat them. He was present the whole time and couldn’t hold back on his involvement. This was later seen when he consoled the football team on the podium. He spoke to every player and reassured them while maintaining engaged eye contact, as well as giving them hugs.
“His facial expressions were genuinely full of condolences, sadness, and empathy. They had all come so far, so William wanted to support them in any way he could. William was gutted for them.”
The expert added that William really “put himself in England’s shoes” showing he can truly be the “people’s prince.”
“This appearance tells us a lot about who William is as a person,” Stanton shared. “It reveals he is empathetic, caring, and a team player. You can tell he connects with people very easily and can put himself in their shoes. When we saw him interacting and being this tactile with the players, William took on their emotions and felt them himself – which says a lot about someone.
“The fact he hugged them all shows not only how much the monarchy has grown – but also how William wants people to see him as relatable and someone who cares. He doesn’t want to be someone who isn’t seen or heard, he wants to be involved as much as he can as a royal. He wants to be known as the people’s prince.”
