At a time when approximately 42 percent of marriages in the UK end in divorce, these royal couples show what enduring love means.<\/p>\n
Each of these marriages in the list below has a charming story. Can you guess which royal turned down her Prince’s proposal twice before she agreed to marriage, and which pair had to wait nine years to persuade the groom’s father that theirs was an everlasting love match?<\/span><\/p>\n In a way, looking at the strength of these couples is even more inspiring as they have had their own unique obstacles of juggling being part of the monarchy with living in the public eye, not to mention family and societal pressures that are sometimes forced upon them.<\/p>\n The takeaway marriage tips from these royals seem to include being true to yourself, supporting your other half through life’s ups and downs, and of course, being each other’s best friend.<\/p>\n Read on to learn more about the royal couples whose long-lasting marriages have stood the test of time\u2026<\/strong><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”fp-h3-futura” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font=”Roboto Condensed|700|||||||” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”] Top of the long-lasting marriage list are the Duke and Duchess of Kent, who marked their incredible 63rd<\/sup> wedding anniversary in June. The Duke, also known as Prince Edward, is a second cousin of King Charles.<\/p>\n Instead of marrying in a traditional royal venue, Edward and his love Katherine said “I do” at the historic York Minster on 8 June 1961. The couple met in York, so there was a meaningful sentiment behind it. Katherine also grew up at Hovingham Hall near York.<\/p>\n Katherine, 91, has retired from public life and is rarely seen in public. Although in June 2023 to mark her and Edward’s 62nd wedding anniversary, she attended a portrait unveiling and concert at St James’s Palace by Future Talent, a charity that she founded in 2004 for aspiring young musicians from financially unstable backgrounds.\u00a0<\/p>\n Edward and Katherine have three children together \u2013 George Earl of St. Andrews; Lady\u00a0Helen Windsor; and Lord Nicholas Windsor \u2013 and ten grandchildren.

In standard royal traditions, this meant marriage laws had to be reversed as the king was the only heir to the throne and was expected to marry someone of the same social status.\u00a0<\/p>\n After being together for nine years prior to their marriage, the pair won over Harald’s father, King Olav V, who initially forbade the wedding. They wed in the stunning Oslo cathedral on 27 August 1968 and had 3,000 soldiers lining the procession route from the royal palace.<\/p>\n In 1993, the couple celebrated their silver wedding anniversary, which was a huge celebration in Oslo that saw over forty royal guests and relatives from around Europe flock to Norway. The event was further marked by a three-day cruise around north-western Norway. For their golden wedding anniversary in 2018, they opted for a more low-key celebration at Oslo Cathedral, still surrounded by family and friends showing just how important their loved ones are to them.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2024\/09\/GettyImages-1025055994-scaled.jpg” title_text=”NORWAY-ROYALS-ANNIVERSARY” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] Nowadays, Harald and Sonja reside at The Royal Palace in Oslo and both their two children Crown Prince Haakon and Princess M\u00e4rtha-Louise are married to non-royals, following in their parents’ footsteps.<\/p>\n Recently, HELLO!<\/strong> exclusively covered the wedding of Martha-Louise and Durek Verrett<\/a>, an American shaman proving that this Norwegian royal line is certainly making history.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text module_class=”fp-h3-futura” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font=”Roboto Condensed|700|||||||” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”] Another impressively long marriage is King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia of Sweden who met at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, where Silvia worked as an interpreter. The pair “clicked” right away, according to Carl.\u00a0<\/p>\n Their pairing was unique in that Carl had already been reigning as king of Sweden for two years when he proposed to Silvia Sommerlath. So not only was she marrying into the royal family, she would be proclaimed queen \u2013 a huge life change to say the least. When Carl was asked about the type of woman he wished to marry, he said: “She may be a secretary or a government official. That does not matter. The important thing is love.”<\/p>\n A highlight of their pre-marriage celebrations was the gala concert the evening before they were wedded. ABBA dedicated a live performance of Dancing Queen to the bride-to-be. The couple had their ceremony at Stockholm Cathedral on 19 June 1976 and as soon as she said her vows, Silvia became queen of Sweden, making this marriage a fairytale love story.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2024\/09\/GettyImages-104708477-scaled.jpg” title_text=”GettyImages-104708477″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] The couple, who live at Drottningholm Palace, Stockholm, have three children: Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Carl Philip and Princess Madeleine.

When she graduated in 1980, they announced their engagement a few months later. However, there were still concerns about Henri marrying a non-royal, but this led to him threatening to give up his right to the throne if he couldn’t marry the love of his life.\u00a0<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2024\/09\/GettyImages-542259476-scaled.jpg” title_text=”WEDDING OF HENRI OF LUXEMBOURG AND MARIA TERESA” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″] On Valentine’s Day in 1981, Henri and Maria married at Notre Dame Cathedral in Luxembourg City and went on to have five children: Prince Guillaume, Prince F\u00e9lix, Prince Louis, Princess Alexandra, and Prince S\u00e9bastien.
