Prince William and Kate Middleton reportedly brought a lawyer to their wedding in case anyone objected to them getting married.
The Dean of Westminster Dr John Hall made the revelation ahead of the couple's tenth wedding anniversary this month.
He told the Daily Mail: "One of my colleagues said, 'You really do need to have a lawyer handy just in case', so we did.
"Even though we knew it was all going to be fine, we did actually have a lawyer waiting in the wings."
Dr Hall was the man who asked the wedding attendees: "If any man can show any just cause why they may not lawfully be joined together let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace."
Thankfully the day went ahead at Westminster Abbey without anyone shouting out their objection.
The mystery over where the couple went for their mini-honeymoon after their April 29 2011 ceremony was also revealed.
The palace secrecy around their whereabouts sparked a nationwide guessing game, with alleged sightings of the couple everywhere from the Isles of Scilly to north-east Scotland.
Sources involved in the wedding organisation have now said the couple actually flew straight back to their cottage in north Wales for just 36 hours of down time before newlywed William resumed work as an RAF Search and Rescue pilot based on Anglesey.
No one ever tracked them down and their actual honeymoon saw William took Kate away to a £4,000-a-night villa in the Seychelles.

Other revelations included two trees having to be moved after the BBC said they were obstructing two of their remote cameras.
Kate had ordered them to decorate the abbey but they were moved at the last minute.
Ed Stourton, the only broadcaster in the abbey for the wedding, also recalled his sheer terror when he thought he might have to describe the bride's dress to the world on April 29 2011.

Another detail was when William and Kate went for a tasting with star chef Anton Mosimann, who was in charge of their wedding banquet.
After Kate dared suggest an improvement to one of his recipes., he admitted she was right and offered her a part-time job if she ever needed one.
Meanwhile, the eight-tier wedding cake's maker Fiona Cairns revealed she got police to guard her bakery at night to protect it.
One night she got a call at 1.30am over fears someone was trying to break in, but it turned out to be a group of children playing, it was reported.

And even when the cake was safely taken to Buckingham Palace, a door had to be taken off its hinges so it could be installed.
