King Charles III arrived at his Coronation at Westminster Abbey in the Diamond Jubilee State Coach yesterday, but despite the momentous occasion, the King appeared agitated.
And now, a lip reader has claimed that he made a nine-word complaint about timeliness which was caught on camera. The expert says that they believe the King was moaning to his wife, Queen Camilla, about running behind schedule.
As reported by the Mirror, the lip reader claims he uttered to his wife: "We can never be on time, there's always something..."
However, despite running behind, the King was making his way through the Abbey ready to be coronated. He was officially crowned by the Archbishop of Canterbury in the Coronation service by Justin Welby just after midday
The service saw Mr Welby place the St Edward's Crown on King Charles' head. This will be the first and only time that Charles, 74, will wear the 17th-century crown which was last worn by Queen Elizabeth II during her Coronation.
In another touching moment during the ceremony William, The Prince of Wales, pledged loyalty to the King in a solemn rite, kneeling to give an oath of allegiance to his father.
He said: "I, William, Prince of Wales, pledge my loyalty to you and faith and truth I will bear unto you, as your liege man of life and limb. So help me God."
Body language expert Judi James told The Mirror that the pair appeared to have made "a pact to avoid too much eye contact" to avoid Charles being "overwhelmed with emotion". She said: "Touching body language between Charles and William.
"The two men seemed to have made a pact to avoid too much eye contact during the ceremony, possibly because Charles did look in danger of getting overwhelmed with emotion at some points."
