Royal Love Stories: The British couples encounters that shaped history

Royal Romance: How Britain's most prominent couples found their way to each other**

Ah, royal romance. It's the kind of story that Walt Disney has made billions and fascinated gossip columnists since the founding of the crown. And although real life takes from court romance involving kings, queens, princes and princesses tending to show less spoken rats, they are all unique love stories in their own right.

So today we answer the romantic question, how did all the British royal couples meet? For now, let's meet with a pleasant divine encounter.  Before her husband's death in 2021, Queen Elizabeth II was Britain's longest-married monarch in history, spending 73 years with the Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip. 

The couple met at a wedding when they were children and did not communicate properly until many years later. Elizabeth was 13 years old when she first began to imagine Philip, after the 18-year-old gave her a tour of the Royal Naval College in 1939. The boats seem romantic enough to bridge the alarming age gap. 

Two months later, World War II began and radically changed the life of the royal family. Elizabeth took on further assignments while Philip served as an officer in the Royal Navy. The kibosh was put on the hanger before it began. Or was it? Despite being turned away, the emerging romance between Elizabeth and Philip remained strong, with the two writing letters and sending 

Photographed throughout the war. They finally married in 1947. [Elegant music] Before becoming Princess of Wales, Diana was simply known as the sister of the girl who was dating the Prince of Wales, who It's a hard thing to be famous for.

Although Diana Spencer grew up in the Queen's estate at Sandringham, she did not meet Prince Charles for some time. When Diana was 16 years old, her older sister Sarah started dating Charles. He was invited to his girlfriend's house in 1977, where he met Diana, who admitted that she admired old Chuck. Being a prince goes a long way.

Sarah and Charles' relationship eventually dissolved, and a few years later, Charles put the moves on the youngest sisters. The result was an elaborate fairy wedding in 1981, which made Diana one of the most famous modern princesses of all time.

The marriage eventually ended in divorce in 1996, as Diana suffered a tragic car accident just one year later. [Graceful music] Diana was best known as Prince Charles' first wife, but she was Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, who continued to attract his attention.

The two happened to be at the same polo match in 1970, where they really hit her. Camilla even flirted with Charles by saying that her great-grandmother was the mistress of Charles' great-grandfather. This line gets them every time. The couple dated for several months, until the Royal Navy sent Charles overseas. 

When he returned to Britain, Camilla moved to Andrew Parker Bowles, whom she married in 1973. Eight years later, Charles married Diana. But reports suggest that Charles and Camilla reconnected and began an affair in 1986. In Charles and Camilla will continue to divorce their husbands and be with each other to make up for all lost time. The two married in 2005. 

 And Andrew Parker Bowles moved on to Anne Robinson, host of a game show, The Weakest Link. So hopefully he hasn't read much about it.  Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton were best known as Prince and Princess of Wales. But they started things as college sweethearts. After both finished a gap year, William traveled to Africa and South Africa while Kate headed to Chile and Italy. When they arrived at the University of St Andrews in 2001, they were stationed in the same first-year residence, St Salvatore Hall. 

After moving into an on-campus apartment with some friends, Kate and Willie began an intermittent romance. After a high-profile relationship, the two tied the knot at perhaps the most famous wedding in 2011. Sorry, Rachel Weiss and Daniel Craig. We are sure that your wedding was fine. 

Diana's youngest son, Prince Harry, was no stranger to the dating scene before he met American actress Meghan Markle. He probably knew about her acting from the TV shows Fringe and Suits. And she probably knew about Harry because, well, he was Prince Harry. The man's face was everywhere. The former TV star visited London in July of 2016, and was blindly assigned to the Queen's grandson, thanks to a mutual friend. 

The two of them did so well that less than a month later, the two were traveling to Botswana together. Usually, this is the kind of thing you wait a couple of months. Their love flourished and eventually married at St George's Church in May 2018, living happily ever happily ever without any controversy whatsoever, and certainly no talk of stripping the Duke and Duchess of Sussex of their royal titles. Slow down. 

All the King's horses and all the King's men helped Anne and Mark meet, my friend. Anne, L.T. was the eldest daughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip the first royal children to marry. She met Captain Mark Phillips and bonded with him because of their shared love for horses. In fact, Anne competed in equestrian events at the Montreal Olympics, while Phillips went to the Olympics twice with the British riding team. 

 In Mexico City in 1968, the two separately attended an event honoring the Olympic team. Sparks flew, the relationship began, and the two eventually married in 1973. Their love story will end in 1992, after a slightly chaotic public life. In fact, Anne is the first member of the royal family to be convicted of a crime, pleaded guilty to two counts of losing control of her dog in 2002. Royalty, they are just like us. 

While still married to Captain Mark Phillips, Anne decided She rose through the ranks of the Navy when she met Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Lawrence in 1986. Anne's marriage to Mark has been rocky since Captain Phillips had a child with a teacher in New Zealand, something you're not supposed to do when you're already married. The relationship deteriorated after that incident, and the two were rarely seen together in public. 

 Anne and Lawrence met on the boat Britannia, the royal family's yacht, while working as a navigation officer. Shortly after the meeting, the relationship began, followed by a full-blown royal scandal after Timothy's love letters to Anne became public in 1989. After completing Anne's divorce from Phillips in 1992, the princess married Lawrence in Scotland. But did she remember keeping her dog tied up? 

Queen Elizabeth was the third second child, Prince Andrew, who knew Sarah "Fergie" Ferguson since the two were very young, but they did not stay in each other's childhood for long. Dang, this is until 2000 and late. Once they came of age, a matchmaking scheme worthy of a Hallmark film happened. In the title role as a guest, Princess Diana invited Sarah to lunch at Windsor Castle for the Royal Ascot races. 

And anyone anyone who went to Windsor Castle for the races Royal Ascot. Oh, and before you get confused, Royal Ascot is just the name of the hippodrome. They literally don't race with those fancy bonds. Diana made sure that Sarah got a seat next to her son-in-law, the Duke of York. The rest is history. Andrew and Sarah tied the knot a year later, in 1986. 

Although their marriage ended in divorce, the two are still close friends and even still live together. The youngest children of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were also the last children to marry. Prince Edward was born in 1964 and first met his future bride, Sophie Reese Jones, in 1993. 

The two worked together to plan a charity event at the Queen's Tennis Club, and they probably had all sorts of weird incidents and misunderstandings one could expect from the Royal ROM-Com. They dated for several years before marriage in 1999, officially becoming the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh in the process. 

Guess in tennis sometimes love wins Let's talk about Peter and Autumn, the first married couple among the grandchildren of Queen Elizabeth II. Peter is the eldest grandson, born to Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips. Autumn met Kelly at the Montreal Grand Prix in 2003, and the couple began dating shortly thereafter. In the bald and high-concept rum movement, Peter wasn't too keen to reveal his royal right to give birth and avoid telling her when they initially started dating. 

That's right, he was a secret prince. Hallmark Channel will be proud. It wasn't until autumn that she watched a TV show about the royal family until she learned the truth. Apparently, his stunt did not affect their relationship, and the couple married in 2008. 

Princess Anne has one daughter, Zara Phillips. Zara was in Sydney, Australia, in 2003 as part of the Year of the Gap when she met rugby player Mike Tendall. Apparently, if you want to get a royal partner, you need to spend a gap year in college. 

The 25-year-old Tyndall was participating in the World Rugby Championships, a perfect way to look cool in front of royalty. In fact, it's a good way to look great in front of anyone. Have you seen rugby? The two eventually intersected in a bar, and the relationship developed shortly thereafter. Little lovebirds then got married in Edinburgh in 2011. 

We are sure that the Tyndall Rugby Boys behaved respectfully and rationally, and not a single chair was broken Princess Eugenie of York, daughter of Prince Andrew, delivered what can only be described as the second most important royal wedding of 2018. Maybe this stings. Eugenie met 24-year-old Jack Brooksbank in 2010 in Verbier, a luxury ski resort in Switzerland. In the words of the special princess, love was at first sight. 

"Eujackie" or "Jackenie" dated for several years before finally sinking into the wedding in 2018. Their wedding fell a few months later

Months after Eugenie Harry's cousin married Meghan Markle, he was shown in the same building. They probably saved a lot of money just by reusing all the old décor, although they supposedly made a new cake. The royal family is really budget-conscious, right? So what do you think? Do you enjoy knowing the origins of these royal romances? Let's in the comments.
