Prince William and Princess Catherine have the one of the sweetest love stories in history, so itโs no surprise theyโve shared multiple fairytale moments over the years.
After meeting a young Kate Middleton at St Andrewโs University back in 2001, the pair became fast friends before starting a romantic relationship two years later.
Though the duo had their ups and downs โ and even a brief split โ nothing could stop their love and William knew he had found โThe Oneโ.
In 2010, a besotted William popped the question on a trip to Kenya, presenting Kate with his late mother Princess Dianaโs engagement ring. Naturally, Kate said yes!
A year later, in April 2011, they both said โI doโ in a lavish wedding ceremony at Westminster Abbey, and in the decade since theyโve travelled all over the globe while working tirelessly on issues like mental health, child bereavement and equality.
But the Prince and Princess of Walesโ biggest adventure was when they welcomed their three children โ Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
And to think it all started with one little question from William so many years ago.

02
The charming prince proposed to Catherine with his motherโs iconic wedding ring.
William said of his proposal: โWe had a little private time away together with some friends and I just decided that it was the right time really. We had been talking about marriage for a while so it wasnโt a massively big surprise. I took her up somewhere nice in Kenya and I proposed.โ
