Being a Royal might seem fun and fancy. When you were little you always wanted to be a Prince or a Princess. But being a Royal is not only about official arrangements, events and fancy gowns. You are representative of your country and nation. Marrying into the Royal family isn’t an easy task.

Life before joining royal family means freedom to do and look whatever you want. After joining the Royals, your life changes completely. Whether you are used to being in the spotlight or not, that is what awaits you, and you have to be prepared for it. You have to change your clothes, hair, behaviour, and even friends. Here are some people who went from commoner to Royal and what their life was before joining the family.

Many question Crown Prince Haanok’s decision to marry Mette-Marit because of her past, yet the two decided to stay together.

Princess Sofia of Sweden

Another pre-royal with not such a nice past is Swedish Princess Sofia. Before meeting Prince Carl Philip, Sofia was a model a waitress and reality TV star. She became famous for kissing an adult film star Jenna Jameson.

This love was also put on a question but Prince Carl Philip defended his love and his wife. In one interview he said “Above all, she’s beautiful and has beautiful eyes.
