No, I'm implying that he's been very quickly married off (to his pre-existing fiance) ASAP, now this has all finished inside the courts. To say that it is "not without precedent" would be to mug furiously as you say it, delighting in being a radio announcer, and being able to do that sort of thing.
Fact: it was a male member of the Royal family itself, rather than a member of its household, or a lover.
Assumption: it's not going to be Prince Phillip or the like now, is it? More likely some young, naive young whippersnapper, probably not even married, maybe curious or drunk or just 'up for it'.
Fact: erm, well, we do have a large Royal family, but there are not SO many contenders for the ahem, position.
Ta-da.
Alternative scenario: he is a decoy and it WAS Prince Philip or the like - again, not without precedent, just seemingly rather unlikely.
