The first year of any marriage can be difficult, as partners face unfamiliar challenges, but most couples go through it more or less on their own, or within the view of their families, friends and community. That’s just not true for the future King of England and his wife. Their wedding, after all, was watched live by millions of people all around the world; it even became a social media event. If you don’t remember exactly what the big day was like, just take a look at Anglophenia’s live coverage. Will and Kate’s wedding jump-started the British monarchy, but the couple’s reinvigoration of England’s historic ruling institution didn’t end with the wedding. All through the past year, these newest royal celebrities have had to juggle the public and private parts of their lives in ways that are unimaginable to the rest of us. We start our look back at their first year of marriage with an image of one of the more private moments of their wedding day, shortly after the ceremony itself in Westminster Abbey, as an historic 1902 State Landau carriage delivers the newlyweds to Buckingham Palace.
