11. The Couple Who Gave The Nazi Salute
Obviously, with the favorite royal weddings that have happened in the last few decades, it is not uncommon for a royal family member to marry a commoner. However, this might mean the royal member has to give up the high lifestyle and live as a commoner. This happened King Edward VIII married Wallis Simpson in the mid-1930s. Because Wallis was not only a commoner but also an American divorcee, King Edward VIII had to give up the throne.
However, this was only the beginning of what would become one of the worst royal weddings in history. With around 20 guests, the couple married in France with rows and rows of empty chairs. Furthermore, the couple did not have nor, could they pay a professional photographer, so they had the best man’s wife take a few photographs of their wedding. However, these photographs were not seen by the public until nearly 80 years later. On top of this, and probably for many, the worst part of the wedding, was the couple was seen giving the Nazi salute.
