Now, a professional reader has exclusively told The Sun exactly what she thinks the young pair were talking about.

Louis then says "let's do it together' before the brothers wave to the cheering crowds, claims the lip reader.
Meanwhile, Princess Kate and Princess Charlotte, 10, who were in the same carriage as George and Louis, stunned as they wore matching blue and white outfits.
Prince William, who is expected to have a starring role in today's celebrations, was earlier spotted arriving in a car with his family.
He later appeared on horseback, alongside Princess Anne and the Duke of Edinburgh.

William took part in the military parade, wearing the uniform of the Welsh Guards, a regiment of which he's the colonel.
Anne hasn't ridden in public since she suffered a head injury, thought to be caused by a horse, at her home last year.
The King's escort stunned the crowds of royal fans as they appeared in formal dress.
King Charles and Queen Camilla smiled and waved at the crowds from their carriage.

The monarch is still undergoing his weekly treatments for cancer so is not on horseback this year.
King Charles asked royals to wear black armbands in remembrance of those killed in the Air India plane tragedy.
Those wearing the bands were the Prince of Wales, Colonel of the Welsh Guards, the Princess Royal, Colonel Blues and Royals, and the Duke of Edinburgh, Colonel Scots Guards.
A palace spokesperson said this is "a mark of respect for the lives lost, the families in mourning and all the communities affected by this awful tragedy".

There was also a minute's silence at the event following Thursday's devastating crash which killed at least 241 people.
Many fans braved the early morning rain to queue for a good view - bedecked in Union Jack flags and crowns.
Fans came prepared with umbrellas and rain coats after the Met Office issued storm warnings, as the UK is lashed by floods, thunder and lightning.
But the weather is thankfully clearing up as the morning stretches on.

There will be an incredible ceremony at the Horse Guard Parade and an airshow by the Red Arrows.
This year will be Charles' third Trooping the Colour parade as monarch.
The parade began at Buckingham Palace, going along The Mall and then around the corner of St James's Park to Horse Guards Parade.
When Charles arrived at the Horse Guards Parade, the Royal Horse Artillery fired a 41 gun salute in Green Park.

Over 1,400 officers and soldiers, 400 musicians, 200 horses and 10 bands are taking part in the Trooping the Colour event.
The parade today takes place almost five months before King Charles' actual birthday.
Charles was born on November 14, though the reigning British monarch has two birthdays.
The sovereign's birthday, which is celebrated through the Trooping the Colour, usually falls in the summer months.

Meghan 'terrified' as Harry's decision over UK return 'sealed'
Threats from 'lunatics' and 'terrorists' will stop Harry and Meghan coming back to the UK, an expert says, but the Duke would have missed his dad on Father's Day The growing distance between Prince Harry and the royal family was highlighted once again at the King's recent birthday celebrations, where the Duke of Sussex was notably absent. At Trooping the Colour – which marks the monarch's official birthday – King Charles celebrated alongside his close family, including wife Queen Camilla, the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children, George, Charlotte and Louis. Sadly, Harry and his family were nowhere to be seen. Following his High Court defeat in May, the Duke of Sussex, 40, revealed that he was hopeful of a reconciliation with his father, but said that wouldn't be possible until he could keep his wife and children 'safe' while in the UK. Now, a royal expert says the chances of Archie, six, and Lilibet, four, becoming regular visitors to the UK and growing close to their cousins is looking increasingly unlikely because of Harry and his wife Meghan Markle 's very valid fears. 'Meghan understandably feels scared about coming to the UK with the children,' says former royal editor Duncan Larcombe. 'The threats are real and genuine. The threat is from lunatics, radical protesters that might want to make a name for themselves by jumping in front of them. Then of course you have the worst type, the terrorist threat. And there's no doubt Harry – and his family, as a result – is a huge target.' While Meghan, 43, appears to be feeling more comfortable sharing her children with the world – with her viral Baby Momma dance video and a Disneyland holiday album posted to her socials – the idea of her returning to the UK with them is another matter. A source has told the Mirror that while the mum-of-two is feeling more empowered today, it doesn't alter her safety worries. 'In some ways she's feeling stronger and she wants to share that,' our insider said. 'But she's still terrified of putting her kids at risk by coming back to the UK – any parent would panic if they were in Meghan's shoes. 'So even though Harry is really feeling the absence of his dad, especially after Trooping the Colour and Father's Day, the security stuff will probably always be an issue. 'He knows that things could've been so different if things had gone another way, but it's been five years since they left the UK and the chances of them coming back, even for a visit, seem slim to none. It's heartbreaking.' During his controversial interview with the BBC in May, Harry revealed he 'would love reconciliation' with his family. And our expert believes it's highly likely the Prince now wishes recent events had taken a different course. 'Harry is a sensitive soul and always wore his heart on his sleeve, so whether he'd admit it publicly or not, I'm sure he's full of regrets and wishes he'd done things differently,' says Duncan. With Trooping the Colour and Father's Day falling on the same weekend, it was bound to make him look back at the happy relationships he once had with his brother and dad, and I'm sure he'd love to be able to rebuild those.' Last month, Harry lost his bid to overturn the decision to deny him and his family state-funded, high level security provided for senior royals while in the UK. As a result, he said he 'couldn't see a world' in which he would be able to bring Meghan and the children back to his homeland. Duncan says the death of Harry's mother, Princess Diana, likely weighs heavily on the couple when it comes to their protection, as the absence of official Metropolitan Police protection was a 'contributing factor' in the accident that took her life. But he stresses that whether the couple are 'liked' or not is irrelevant to their safety. The key distinction, he says, is the difference between official royal security and private protection, which could mean the difference between life and death. Official royal security gives royals round-the-clock, armed protection from top Met Police officers and allows MI5 to 'surround them in a ring' of top-level intelligence. Given Meghan's understandable need to protect her children, Duncan suspects it would be very difficult for the family to feel safe without those measures in place. 'At big royal events, the security you actually see is the tip of the iceberg. There are a lot of undercover officers and agents working, too,' he says. 'Without the official support and security, Harry and Meghan are left with two or three bodyguards who are pretty blind to what the potential threats are.'
