She further added, 'We were with our parents and our siblings, who've sacrificed so much for us, our closest friends, who've supported us through our worst. If we'd allowed it to become public in any way, we would be reminded of our public standing. We didn't want that. We just wanted to be like two people in love. We never counted for who we were publicly when we fell in love. Our beings fell in love. We wanted to feel that purity at our wedding. That's why we kept it so close to our hearts and kept it away from anything that would make us think about anything other than us and the people who were part of this. It was surreal.'
