Tutankhamun married his sister because they are royal and they want to keep their blood pure by marrying one of their family members. If there are a different royal family then they can marry the other family member so that the blood still stays pure. That's what my teacher said

This was a common practice at the time, used to protect the purity of the blood line. Also, "It is hard to turn a blind eye from Love" as it is very powerful.
