Kate Middleton and Prince William hid this secret up until now

Aug 12, 2024

Being a member of the British Royal Family means living your life in the public eye.

But some things can remain hush-hush.

And Kate Middleton and Prince William hid this secret up until now.

The real story of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding 

The 2011 wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton was a global affair as people around the world tuned in for the first Royal wedding since Princess Diana and Prince Charles.

1,900 guests were in attendance for a televised ceremony that drew millions of viewers.

Robert Jobson’s biography “Catherine, the Princess of Wales” documented what happened since the red light on the cameras shut off.

Jobson said Prince William and Kate performed a musical routine that brought down the house.

“For the evening’s finale, Prince William and Kate had a special surprise up their sleeves,” Jobson stated.

Suddenly the music for the song “You’re the One I Want” from the 1978 classic Grease began to play.

Jobson recounted how Prince William and Kate then adopted the roles of John Travolta’s Danny and Olivia Newton-John’s Sandy and danced to the music while lip synching the lyrics.

“They stood holding hands in the middle of the dance floor grinning, then suddenly the opening bars of the song ‘You’re the One That I Want’ from the musical ‘Grease’ came booming out,” Jobson wrote. 

“William and Catherine then began dancing around, pointing at each other, and mouthing the words with the style of the lead characters Danny and Sandy,” Jobson added.

“It brought the house down,” Jobson also wrote.

The after party 

The 1,900 guests got trimmed down to 650 for a reception hosted by Queen Elizabeth II.

Only 300 made the cut for Prince Charles’ reception where singer Ellie Goulding performed for the royal bride and groom.

“I was so nervous,” Goulding admitted. “My hands were shaking.”

 Goulding played Elton John’s “Your Song” for the couple’s first dance.

 The singer also performed her hit “Starry Eyed.” 

And Goulding also sang The Killer’s “Mr. Brightside,” which is reportedly one of Prince Willian and Kate’s favorite songs.

Prince William and Kate Middleton met in the fall of 2001 when both were students at St. Andrew’s.

Ten years later, they were married.

20 years later, the Royal Family found itself in turmoil thanks to the antics of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle making baseless accusations of racism.

Meghan and Harry decamped to America and quit the Royal Family.

Now no one welcomes them back in London, and Harry has to stay in hotels rather than getting to spend the night in Buckingham Palace when he travels home.

Kate Middleton is now battling cancer, and Harry and Meghan aren’t even welcome to offer public comments on the matter.

But none of this turmoil existed in April 2011, when Prince William and Kate Middleton tied the knot.
