These two met early in their first year at St. Andrews University in 2001, and Kate recounted to William in their engagement interview, "Well, I actually think I went bright red when I met you and sort of scuttled off, feeling very shy." She added, "Actually, William wasn't there for quite a bit of the time initially. He wasn't there for Freshers Week, so it did take a bit of time for us to get to know each other, but we did become very close friends from quite early on." William revealed, "We were friends for over a year first, and it just sort of blossomed from then on."
Ten years and two breakups later, they were married, and they will celebrate their seventh wedding anniversary in 2018.
