Prince Andrew was the talk of the town at the Duchess of Kent’s funeral, as he stepped back into the royal spotlight after days of keeping a low profile.

As videos of the outing made the rounds on social media, a lip reader has revealed exactly what was said.

While the service itself was dignified, the mood shifted once the family stepped outside Westminster Cathedral.

Andrew’s presence drew attention less for the fact that he was there and more for how others reacted to him.

Senior royals seemed careful to keep their distance, and Prince William, in particular, looked as though he would rather be anywhere else.

Speculation about things being strained between King Charles and Prince William has been swirling for months, and their latest public appearance did little to quiet the chatter.

At a recent gathering during the Duchess of Kent’s funeral, observers noticed the cold vibe between the father and son.

William stood beside his father but gave little to no sign of acknowledgment, igniting questions about whether the frostiness had anything to do with Prince Harry’s surprise reunion with Charles, which the Prince of Wales is known to have dubbed as a 'terrible, terrible idea.'

Kate Middleton is known for her perfect curtsies, dipping gracefully despite her high heels.

The Princess of Wales, hence, surprised many when she did not greet King Charles and Queen Camilla with one during Donald Trump's state welcome on September 17.

Her action marked a sharp departure from previous outings, when she always bowed in respect to the King and Queen.

After the Trumps landed at Windsor Gardens, the Prince and Princess of Wales warmly welcomed them with a handshake and escorted them a short distance to meet Charles and Camilla.

It is during this time that Middleton usually dips into a curtsy as a sign of respect.
