Meghan Markle’s First Marriage: A Brief Look
Before marrying Prince Harry in 2018, Meghan Markle was married to film producer Trevor Engelson. The couple met in 2004, dated for seven years, and tied the knot in Jamaica in 2011. Just two years later, they divorced, citing irreconcilable differences.
At the time, Meghan had just landed her breakout role in Suits, which required her to move to Toronto. The long-distance and her rising fame reportedly strained the relationship. Biographers suggest Meghan grew apart from Trevor, becoming more independent and focused on her career. Some claim she ended things suddenly—possibly even mailing back her wedding rings.
Though Trevor rarely spoke publicly about the split, insiders say he was heartbroken. Meghan has also remained silent about the marriage. However, upcoming books may shed new light, with reports suggesting Trevor is now ready to share his side of the story.
