A lip reader has revealed what was said between the Jordanian royals and William and Kate when the Prince and Princess of Wales arrived for today’s lavish wedding in Amman.
The Prince and Princess of Wales, 40 and 41, travelled to Jordan – where Kate lived for a short while during her childhood – to watch Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan marry Saudi architect Rajwa Al-Saif, 29.
When they arrived at the Zahran Palace, the pair were greeted by King Abdullah II and Queen Rania of Jordan and paused to catch up before taking their seats.
The last time the couples saw each other was at King Charles’ Coronation in May, and according to a lip reader, Queen Rania told William during their chat: ‘They were so good’.
Although it is unclear who she was referring to, it could be a reference to the couple’s three children George, Charlotte and Louis.

King Abdullah II also seemed to be reflecting on a memory in the conversation, and told William: ‘Yes I remember that, it was beautiful.’
Prince William said: ‘Yes its mad, I know! They are lovely, yes they are,’ although it is unclear who the Prince was referring to.
The King grinned before responding with: ‘Thank you.’
As William and the monarch shook hands at the start of their conversation, the King said: ‘Hello how are you feeling?’ while the Queen kissed him and said: ‘So good to see you again.’
The Prince of Wales then added: ‘Thank you, you’re very kind it was wonderful thank you,’ before pausing and adding, ‘very much yes’.
Kate is then thought to have asked the Jordanian royal couple how they are, adding: ‘There’s so much going on.’
Queen Rania responded: ‘Yes there is so much. I am looking forward to going on vacation after this.’
William and Kate then both said: ‘oh my goodness’ – with William laughing.
‘See you at the reception,’ Kate added.

The Prince of Wales then put his arms around Kate, as Queen Rania said: ‘Thank you so much we will see you later.’
And then King then – at the same time – holds his hands up and says: ‘Lovely, yes we will see you.’
Jordan holds a special place in Kate and William’s hearts, and the royal couple took their children on holiday to the country in 2021.
The Middleton family spent two years in Jordan during the early 80s, beginning when Kate was just two years old, after her father Michael, a British Airways flight dispatcher, was relocated to Amman for work.
