A professional lip reader has revealed details of Meghan Markle's personal message to Prince Harry at the Platinum Jubilee, much to the delight of curious fans.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made their first public royal appearance together in over two years last week, arriving at St. Paul's Cathedral in central London on Friday morning for the Queen's Service of Thanksgiving in celebration of her 70th anniversary as British monarch.
The A-list couple, who emigrated to North America after withdrawing from the Royal Family in early 2020, was welcomed to the ceremony by a mixture of applause and boos from onlooking crowds, before being seated in the second row next to Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice. Their positioning was notably far from Prince Charles, Duchess Camilla, Prince William, and Kate Middleton, who observed the poignant service from the front row of the church.

Despite appearing at the Trooping the Color at Buckingham Palace and the lighting of the Jubilee Beacon at Windsor Castle the day before, the Queen did not make the Thanksgiving Service due to her ongoing mobility issues.
The high-profile royal gathering was likely to cause Harry and Meghan some anxiety, especially in light of their alleged feud with the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge. The couple has launched a series of scathing attacks on the Royal Family since their move to the US, including accusations of racism against Buckingham Palace and the inheritance of 'genetic pain and suffering' from being born an heir.
With so much tension gripping the atmosphere at the Thanksgiving Service, it's no wonder that Meghan and Harry leaned on each other for support during the 50-minute ceremony. At one point, the Duchess of Sussex even turned to her husband and reportedly said, "Yeah, will be fine," in an apparent attempt to reassure him.
The revelation comes shortly after it was revealed why Harry and Meghan sat so far apart from the senior royals at the event.
"The excuse was that as they are no longer working members, they were to take a literal back seat," royal insider Ingrid Seward told Fabulous.
“The reality is the Palace was determined there would be no photographs that might reveal any animosity between the brothers."
Harry and Meghan flew back to California with their two children, Archie and Lilibet, on Sunday, having only attended one public royal event over the course of the Platinum Jubilee weekend. It remains unknown when they will visit the UK again.
