Lip reader exposed bizarre ‘insult’ Prince William muttered during tense Euros moment

As the UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 tournament kicks off, fans are recalling a peculiar moment involving Prince William during last year’s men’s Euro final. The Prince of Wales, a devoted football fan, attended the 2024 final in Berlin with his son Prince George.

Photos of the royal pair cheering during England’s equalizing goal by Cole Palmer went viral. Their enthusiastic celebration highlighted a rare emotional side of the normally composed William, who was seen fist-pumping and chanting with the crowd.

Body language expert Darren Stanton noted that William showed an unusually expressive demeanor, unlike his typical public appearances where he maintains a more professional posture.

As the game intensified, William and George showed visible stress, leaning forward and biting their nails. Despite England’s hopes, Spain scored a second goal in the 87th minute, sealing a 2-1 victory. William later shared his disappointment on X, praising the team’s effort.

However, what truly puzzled some viewers was a moment caught by a lip reader. After being interrupted by someone during the game, William reportedly muttered the word “sausage” under his breath, following a comment that something “was already requested.”

The unusual remark drew curiosity, and Kensington Palace declined to comment at the time. Still, the odd exchange has remained a humorous footnote for fans.

Now, attention turns to the Women’s Euro 2025, with matches underway in Switzerland and England set to face France on Saturday in their opening game.
