Prince George has a cute nickname for his mum Kate, as revealed by a lip reading expert.

George was overheard using a pet name for Kate during their carriage ride to the Horse Guards Parade during the Platinum Jubilee in 2022. He was spotted calling his mum the adorable nickname by lip-reading expert Jeremy Freeman when he turns to speak to Kate. The then-eight-year-old, dapper in a suit and tie, waved to the crowd before he turned to his mum, affectionately calling her "momma".

Then his younger brother, Louis, was seen being "slapped down" by sister Charlotte, who appeared to tell him to stop waving. While the parents have family names for their children, too. George has a particularly unusual moniker – inspired by a British brand of tea bags. Once his friends started abbreviating Prince George to 'PG', William and Kate apparently took the next logical step and dubbed him Tips.

The late-Queen Elizabeth II also shared a charming exchange with her great-grandson Prince Louis on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the Platinum Jubilee flypast, according to lip reader Jeremy Freeman. Surrounded by top-tier Royals, Her Majesty greeted the jubilant crowds and observed the aerial display on June 2 2022. A fleet of 70 aircraft, featuring the renowned Red Arrows and the historic Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, dazzled spectators with an impressive exhibition above the capital.

Prince Louis became the centre of attention with his animated reactions as the jets zoomed overhead, and a lip reading specialist has uncovered a particularly endearing interaction between him and the Queen. The young prince appeared overwhelmed by the noise as the military planes passed by, prompting his mother, Kate, to soothe him by stroking his hair.

According to lip reading expert Jeremy Freeman, speaking to Daily Star, Louis exclaimed "Woah" to his mother. Turning to his great-grandmother, Louis inquired, "Are the Red Arrows coming? " to which the Queen fondly responded, "I hope so." As another group of loud jets streaked across the sky, Louis waved enthusiastically at the pilots, then covered his ears again and playfully grimaced at the onlookers.
