Prince William married Kate Middleton in 2011 in a spectacular ceremony. Since the prince had chosen a bride from outside the royal family, the protocol contained some unusual requirements. Among them was a test of whether the future queen could have children.
The startling claim was made in a new book, Gilded Youth: An Intimate History of Growing Up in the Royal Family, in which author Tom Quinn revealed some interesting facts about the royal marriage, as reported by Hello magazine.
Speaking of the strange practice, the author writes: "These are always carried out to ensure that the future queen will be able to have children. If Kate was not fertile, there is no doubt that the marriage would have been consummated."
The book claims that Princess Diana had to undergo the same medical tests before marrying Charles in 1981, as reported by Hello Magazine.
"Diana complained during a brief meeting with the present author that she had innocently thought that her pre-marital check-ups had to do with general health, only to later realize that she was actually being tested for fertility." "I was so innocent that I went along with everything at that stage," she said.
Prince William married Kate Middleton on April 29, 2011 at Westminster Abbey in London. Around 1,900 guests attended the wedding, for which a special eight-tiered cake was ordered and a public holiday was declared in the country.
