On his first holiday with his father and brother following the sudden, traumatising death of his mother Princess Diana<\/a>, Prince Harry<\/a> made the kind of mistake that any 13-year-old boy could make, opting for style over practicality and wearing his favourite baseball cap on the chilly slopes of an exclusive Rocky Mountains ski resort. But unlike most 13-year-olds, Harry\u2019s mistake played out in full view of the world\u2019s media, with cameras capturing the moment during what was already an intensely emotional period for the young royal. And now, thanks to a team of expert lip-readers who have pored over archive footage of that pivotal moment in his life, we can learn exactly what was said that day too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Speaking on Channel 5\u2019s Lip-Reading the Royals: What Are They Really Saying?<\/em>, forensic lip-reader Nicola Hickling revealed the conversation Harry and Prince William<\/a> had with their father the King<\/a> \u2014 then the Prince of Wales \u2014 as a ski lift ferried them to the top of the mountain. She says that Harry appeared to tell his father \u201cI\u2019m so cold.\u201d But rather than trying to comfort Harry, Charles instead turned to William and, according to Nicola, says: \u201cHe has no sense. Of course it’s bloody cold. We’re in the snow.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Then William, seemingly speaking to Charles as if his brother wasn\u2019t there, appears to ask: \u201cDidn’t he bring a spare hat?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n According to Nicola, Charles\u2019s callous response was: \u201cHe wanted to wear that cap. I told him he was mad and that it’s very cold. He doesn’t make it easy for himself\u201d at which point William came out with his own dismissive remark: \u201cLet him crack on. He will learn. He will probably get frostbite.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Charles appears to conclude the conversation by coldly saying: \u201cPerhaps.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Commenting on the lip-reader\u2019s analysis, actress Nina Wadia says: \u201cWell of course style is more important than practicality \u2013 he\u2019s a teenage boy! Of course he’s going to wear a baseball cap on a ski lift and then complain that it’s cold.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n She adds: \u201cI love the fact that his brother and his father are ripping into him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Many years later, William would have the opposite problem when he found himself somewhat overdressed for the 41\u00baC (106F) heat outside the iconic Taj Mahal in India, offering a striking contrast to the earlier scene on the freezing slopes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The lip-readers believe that the Prince complained to his wife, Princess Catherine, about how hot it was, telling her that he wished he hadn\u2019t worn his rather formal blue sports jacket during the visit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n When Catherine suggested he might slip it off, William appeared to respond: \u201cAre kidding? I don’t think anything I wear would cool me down.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Nina comments that these revealing exchanges help to humanise the royals, making it clear that underneath all the pomp and ceremony, they are just like the rest of us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The coverage of the royals\u2019 holiday in British Columbia is featured on Episode 4 of Lip-Reading the Royals<\/em>, which airs at 8pm on Saturday March 21.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.express.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On his first holiday with his father and brother following the sudden, traumatising death of his mother Princess Diana, Prince Harry made the kind of mistake that any 13-year-old boy could make, opting for style over practicality and wearing his favourite baseball cap on the chilly slopes of an exclusive Rocky Mountains ski resort.
