Keep in mind when talking about European royalty that typically they weren't trying to inbreed either and it depended on the political climate at the time. They still weren't marrying off brother and sister most times, mostly it was marriages between cousins and if it was possible they would choose a distant cousin. Health issues typically happen a lot faster the closer family members are, so yeah it is possible for cousins to have children and for issues to not crop up right away.

Birth defects and other health issues definitely happen as a result of inbreeding though, and it's one of those things where even if it doesn't, who in their right mind would want to risk it.
