Story one of ten today, about five minutes for the lot

A Swedish crown princess married her own gym trainer

Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden married Daniel Westling, who gained a princely title and became Duke of Vastergotland.

The ceremony took place in Stockholm Cathedral and drew comparisons as Europe's biggest royal wedding since the Prince of Wales married Lady Diana Spencer in 1981. Through the marriage, Westling acquired Victoria's ducal title, becoming a Swedish prince and Duke of Vastergotland.

A joint monogram combining their initials was created in time for the occasion. The event was watched as a major moment for the Swedish monarchy.

It brought a commoner into the royal line.

Why it mattersThe match shows how modern monarchies blend tradition with everyday romance, elevating a commoner into royalty.
