Wife granted annulment when husband turned out to be a woman

Here is an story that will leave you with more questions than answers. A man and wife (or so they thought) were married for seven years before getting divorced. Then the wife looked through an old high school yearbook and discovered that her "ex-husband" was a woman in high school. The woman went back to court and was granted an annulment of the marriage. The question remains--how were they married seven years without the wife figuring out her partner was not a man? Especially since the "ex-husband" was still physically a female?
