Locked Into A Marriage For Her Children’s Sake
While the glitz of her wedding weighed heavy on the hearts of millions of fans, Kelly’s nuptials were far from as glamorous. Not only did she submit to a fertility test to gain the approval of the crown to marry her future husband but she also had to sign a prenuptial.
At the heart of the agreement wasn’t a monetary consideration but rather a demand that in the event of a divorce her children would remain with their father. Because an heir needed to be chosen, the royal family wanted to ensure that any children in the event of the marriage ending, would not be sent to America to live out the rest of their lives.
