Over a decade ago, millions around the world had gathered around the TV or on the streets of London to watch Prince William wed Kate Middleton.
One of the biggest events of the decade, a number of aspects of the wedding had been kept tightly under wraps, with the public and the press supposed to be wowed on the day.
However, despite some serious planning and efforts to hide details of the nuptials, the Duchess of Cambridge was said to be "in tears at the palace" after one secret was leaked.

In the lead up to the wedding on April 29, Kate was said to be intent on keeping the style, designer and details of her wedding dress as private as possible.
However, the Mirror reports that despite her best efforts, the name of the gown's designer got out, and was revealed to be Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton.
Speaking on Channel 5 documentary Secrets of the Royal Dressmakers, royal expert Katie Nicholl discussed how much this upset the future duchess.
She said: "Behind the scenes, I think that caused tears at the Palace because Kate had done everything she could to keep the wedding dress a secret."
Almost two months before the Duke and Duchess were meant to marry, The Sunday Times revealed Sarah was the designer.
At the time, the publication reported: "She was selected by Middleton, who is making increasing efforts to develop her own style, on grounds of her quirky elegance, discretion and low profile.
"A fashion source said that the dress will be a combination of Middleton's own design ideas and Burton's deep knowledge and understanding of high fashion.
"Middleton had hoped to keep Burton's name quiet until the wedding."
Burton denied any involvement until she was officially announced as the designer on the wedding day, where she was present to help style Kate's dress.
But the leak didn't appear to dampen Kate's mood on the day as she couldn't have looked happier to marry her prince.
Wedding dress designer Caroline Castigliano says the big reveal was still special, even though the designer had been leaked as no one had actually seen it before the day.
She said: "Everybody loved Kate’s dress. That excitement when she stepped out, it was just ‘wow’.
"Incredible. She looked sensational. Even now it gives me butterflies."
Sarah used traditional Carrickmacross craftsmanship to make the dress, a technique dating back to the 1800s, to represent 'something old'.
Individual lace roses, thistles, daffodils and shamrocks were attached by hand to the ivory silk tulle, and the skirt was crafted with white satin gazar arches and pleats to echo an opening flower.
