It is difficult to like anyone from the Royal Family due to the constant controversies and scandals attached to them. But Kate Middleton and Prince William have managed to cut through all the controversies and commotion to become the favorite couple in the royal family. Their romance is like a fairytale: the two met in college, fell in love, got married in 2011, and now the couple is leading a peaceful life with their children.
However, Prince William was not the only love in Kate Middleton’s life. Before William, Kate dated several men. The Princess of Wales reportedly dated Rupert Finch, a lawyer, when they were kids. Middleton, before falling in love with Prince William, dated Henry Ropner. But Kate was in love with Willem Marx, a correspondent, before finding her true love!

The Journalist Was Irritated When Asked About The Marriage Invitation
During Kate Middleton and Prince William‘s wedding, she invited Rupert Finch and Willem to her wedding. Marx was shocked and angry upon knowing that news outlets had access to the information that he was one of the guests at her wedding. During an interview with The Telegraph, he refused to answer the question.
When the interviewer asked him about the invitation, he said, “Who told you I had been invited?” When the interviewer concealed the source’s name, he said, “I’m shocked that you make such high brow assertions about protection sources.” Willem continued, “It is a false assertion that you are obliged to protect these sources.”
Willem diverted the stream of the conversation, asking the reporter to cover something of global importance. He said, “People like you should focus on the important events this planet us witnessing at this moment. I suggest you report something that actually matters.” Marx’s irritation was valid, as the reporter was the one to break the news that Kate dated Marx before going to the university.
