 As the service, which included a poignant two-minute silence, came to a close, Kate and Camilla could be seen exchanging a few words before exiting the balcony. And lip reader Jeremy Freeman told the Mirror what he believes was said - and it appears it shows that a confident Kate was happy to lead the two women. He believes that Kate said to Camilla: "Shall we go in now?" before the Queen Consort nodded and they left the balcony.

At the annual Remembrance Sunday service, Queen Consort Camilla and the Princess of Wales Kate Middleton stood together on a balcony overlooking the Cenotaph – and a lip reader has picked up what was said at the end of the service
The Princess of Wales appeared to take the lead as she and Queen Consort Camilla watched the annual Remembrance Sunday service today, according to a lip reader.
The two royal women stood on the balcony of the Foreign Office, overlooking the Cenotaph, where wreaths were laid by King Charles and other royals to honour the nation’s war dead for the first time since the death of the Queen.
They both wore elegant black coats and hats and each had three poppies pinned to them as well as diamond brooches.
There was also a poignant empty space on the balcony, where the late Queen had stood to watch the emotional service in previous years when Charles, then Prince of Wales, would lay a wreath on her behalf.
