Kensington Palace marked the occasion with a tweet sharing photos from the couple’s 2011 wedding at Westminster Abbey.

Though Kensington Palace has not yet formally commented on the rumors, Twitter has been abuzz with conspiracy theories and condemnations of the royal’s alleged behavior.

All jokes aside, many royal fans had nothing but well wishes for the couple, who have three children.

The duke and duchess are, however, slated to visit Wales together in early May.
