Meghan Markle: a bitter divorce with her first husband Trevor Engelson
In a not always happy portrait of Meghan Markle, biographer Andrew Morton tells the story of the first marriage of Prince Harry's fiancée.
Five years after his divorce, Trevor Engleton still seems furious. “I have absolutely nothing, zero, to say about her,” Meghan Markle's first husband responded to various requests. He is struggling to contain his anger, points out Andrew Morton, and that's what the author of a shocking biography of Prince Harry's fiancée says. Trevor Engleton is said to have received his wedding ring and engagement ring in the mail, as a balance of any account after nine years of dating.
The gloomy anecdote comes to punctuate the portrait, not always happy, of Meghan Markle drawn by Andrew Morton in his biography "Meghan: A Hollywood Princess", and whose good sheets were published Sunday by the Sunday Times. The author, who became famous by collecting the confidences of Diana who completed the marriage of Wales in 1992, describes the future wife of Prince Harry as a brilliant and ambitious young woman, fascinated by the “princess of hearts”, but also upstart and not very faithful in friendship… The account of his first marriage is dependent, but seems however, to be based only on the testimonies of close relations of Trevor Engelson and of old friends.
The day after the wedding, each one sets out again towards his career
When she met the producer in 2004, Meghan Markle's career progressed painfully. She goes on auditions, gets a handful of third role in bad series, rounds off the end of the month as a waitress. In 2006, she won a place in the American version of the game show “Take it or leave it”. She is one of the luggage carriers. The job pays well, but it's not really what an actress dreams of ... Around this same time, her companion produced the comedy “Marriage License” with Robin Williams and, according to the biographer, Meghan hopes that Trevor will know about him. find a role. This will not be the case.
“Remember Me” with Robert Pattinson in 2010, her husband's unwillingness to help him with his career will be the couple's main source of conflict, according to Andrew Morton. When she gets the role of Rachel in “Suits” on her own, Meghan and Trevor are engaged, and everyone knows that the marriage will have to be lived from a distance. Him in Los Angeles, she in New York, then Toronto. The ceremony was magical, testify from relatives, but the day after the idyllic parenthesis, everyone went back to their career.
The breakup is a surprise to everyone
The curves, at this period, intersect. To Meghan the success with “Suits”, audience card. To Trevor, misfortune with the failure of his latest film and no plans in sight. A perfectionist by her own accord, Meghan can no longer stand Trevor's lax side - his delays, his wrinkled clothes, his disheveled hair ... - which she had tolerated for years, Morton said. She built a life on her own in Toronto. Their last romantic trip to Thailand is a failure. “Trevor Engelson wasn't the only one to endure Meghan's coldness. Her friends in Los Angeles noticed that she had changed when she started to become famous, "Morton still writes." She had no time for the buddies they had known for years, canceling lunches at the last moment. or asking them to adapt to his schedule as a star-in-the-making. "
All, however, expect his relationship with Trevor to keep his feet on the ground, says the biographer. The breakup in 2013 was all the more surprising for everyone. Trevor, the first, would have fallen from the clouds. From Toronto, he would therefore have received a registered package from the actress, containing her wedding ring and engagement ring. She was the one who ended the marriage unilaterally. The producer, according to a friend cited by the author, felt "like something sticking to the sole of a shoe" Meghan. Prince Harry's fiancée, whom she is to marry on Saturday, May 19, will unfortunately not have the opportunity to give her version. The young woman is already part of this royal family which never comments.
