Henri and Micäela had been civilly married in 1984, shortly after the Henri’s divorce from his first wife Marie-Thérèse. Henri and Marie-Thérèse were granted a religious annulment of their marriage in November 2008. This paved the way for Henri and Micäela to have their union recognised by the Roman Catholic church.
