Lipreader reveals what King Charles said when he snapped at an aide who left Queen Camilla struggling to get her coat on
King Charles told an aide to ‘come and help her’ as his wife Queen Camilla was struggling to put a coat on while battling wind and rain in Jersey, a lip reader has revealed.
The monarch, 75, told his wife to ‘move your arm through the back,’ while she struggled to get the brown trench on as the royal couple watched a military parade in St Helier on Monday.
Footage shows the king looking frustrated as Camilla looks to put the jacket on, before turning to snap at an aide.

Speaking to FEMAIL, lip reader Jacqui Press said Charles told his wife: ‘move your arm through the back’ before turning to an aide and demanding ‘come and help her!’.
Camilla, who will turn 77 tomorrow, was meeting members of the public in St Helier as part of a two-day visit to the Channel Islands with her husband Charles.
At one point the royal couple braved the rain and strong winds as they watched a military parade through the town.

It comes after Camilla was whisked away from her engagements after a security scare.
The royal had to make a quick exit from an ice cream van in Weighbridge Place where she was sampling the local delights when a member of her security team rushed over and told her the visit was being cut short.
Thankfully, the scare turned out to be a false alarm and Their Majesties were soon able to continue with their planned programme of engagements.

Buckingham Palace did not comment officially but it is understood there was a ‘small issue of concern’.
An investigation was initiated but it turned out to be a false alarm. Sources said every precaution was taken and the programme resumed shortly afterwards. It does not appear anyone was arrested.
Members of the public including children who had been due to meet them were taken to the hotel so they could meet Their Majesties personally instead.

Queen Camilla uh odonned a turquoise belted dress upon arrival in the Channel Island – but added a waterproof trench coat and umbrella to her ensemble to take the rain into account.
However, as the couple arrived via red carpet onto a stage in the Royal Square in St Helier, where an official welcoming ceremony was carried out before a sitting of the Royal Court and the State Assembly, Camilla realised she still had her waterproof layer on.
In a comical clip as she stood with King Charles to be officially greeted by delegates, the Queen, in one swift move, jerked back her shoulders to shake off the coat.
As the coat fell behind her in a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, the Queen continued to stand to attention as if nothing has happened – and regained composure in an instant.
The Queen carried a lobster at the expo in St Helier, which took place after she and King Charles had been officially welcomed to Jersey in a ceremony in the Royal Square
As the ceremony got underway, the King was presented with a handful of locally-laid ducks eggs as part of welcome ceremony on Jersey.
His late mother, Queen Elizabeth, was given two dead mallards when she visited in 2001 but it is understood that His Majesty asked for eggs instead.
King Charles said he was ‘delighted’ to return to Jersey, a ‘beautiful and unique’ island that had held such ‘high regard and affection’ for his late mother.
As the heavens opened, they were greeted with huge cheers as they got out of the state Bentley and immediately sheltered under umbrellas.
The King and the Queen, who wore a blue silk shirt dress by Anna Valentine, were led into the square by a Royal Mace, gifted to the island by Charles II in 1663 in recognition of the island’s loyalty to the Crown.
They walked down a red carpet lined with some 200 locals from the legal profession, Jurats, who act as judges, elected politicians and assorted guests.
The guests stood to sing the national anthem as the King and Queen took their places on a dais.
The Bailiff, president of the States Assembly, read out a Loyal Address welcoming the couple before Charles delivered his response.
‘Mr Bailiff, I am most grateful to you and to the States for the warm welcome you have extended to both my wife and myself, and for the assurances of devotion, loyalty and allegiance to the Crown you have expressed on behalf of the people of Jersey,’ he said.
‘My wife and I have such happy recollections of the welcome we received when we were last here in 2012, to mark the Diamond Jubilee of my late mother.
‘During that visit we met so many Islanders and learned of the high regard and affection in which she was held, and also a great deal about your beautiful and unique island. We look forward to doing so again today during our time here in St Helier.’
