Katherine married American artist Andrew in a lavish Hampton Court Palace ceremony in September 2014, just five months after getting engaged.
She said at the time: "Our wedding was incredibly special. It was like a fairy tale. It was emotional because everyone was so happy for us.
“Having our close family and friends there was what made it. We didn’t want to make it a big deal, that’s not us."
