I see that they did actually get married but had to live with the threat of annulment for the rest of their lives, as well as theological and judicial faculties of several states debating their status and sex life as a precedent, pragmatism vs. dogma and all that.

BTW, does the WvK biography anything about whether or not Knobelsdorff despised Versailles and saw the French Revolution coming?
No, he has very little about the France trip in general and only refers to Fritz' eulogy as a source for it.
