Yahoo Lifestyle Kate Middleton and Sophie Wessex Were Spotted Having a Suuuuper Cryptic Conversation
Kate Middleton made a rare public appearance for Remembrance Sunday over the weekend, showing up on the balcony above the Cenotaph war memorial alongside Sophie Wessex. (For those of you who don't keep up with all the various members of the royal family, Sophie is married to Prince Edward, aka King Charles' younger brother.)
Kate and Sophie spent some time talking about Prince William's beard, but apparently the conversation pivoted to a mysterious unnamed person at some point. The vibes are pretty cryptic, but lip reader Kayleigh Harris tells The Sun that Kate told Sophie "She will be supported in this." Meanwhile, Sophie said "Yes, and especially..."
Just FYI, Queen Camilla wasn't at this event due to an ongoing chest infection, leaving Kate on the balcony alone. Sophie ended up switching positions (she was supposed to be on a different balcony with the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester) to lend Kate support in the Queen's absence.
FYI, Sophie and Edward have increased their public profile significantly since King Charles was crowned, and even more so since both His Majesty and Kate Middleton were diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.
Body language expert Judi James tells the Mirror that when it comes to Kate and Sophie's balcony moment, "Sophie was clearly in the role of temporary stand-in for William. She chatted to Kate on the balcony as the two women stood side-by-side and despite Kate's impeccable appearance of confidence as she stood in the spot that used to belong to the late Queen, Sophie appeared to be keeping a watchful eye over her as Anne has clearly been keeping over brother Charles."
She added, "It was the small touch or even pat on the back as Kate walked ahead inside the building that seemed to not only offer a form of maternal affection, caring and reassurance or even congratulation to her niece-in-law, but it also looked like the visible proof to William that Kate is in very safe and caring royal hands when he is not there by her side."
