Meghan Markle Reportedly Wiping All Evidence of First Marriage with Trevor Engelson
Meghan Markle has always embraced the spotlight, but when it comes to her past marriage to producer Trevor Engelson, she reportedly takes a different approach. According to Tom Bower's book *Revenge*, Meghan is rumored to have gone to great lengths to erase any sign of her first wedding, almost as if she wanted to rewrite that chapter of her life completely.
Bower claims that Meghan was determined to keep the memory of her marriage to Trevor a private affair. Allegedly, at her wedding in Jamaica, she even confiscated cameras from guests, treating the event more like a high-security affair than a personal celebration. This left Trevor reportedly with no keepsakes—not a single photo or video of his time with Meghan.
While Trevor has largely kept silent about his relationship with Meghan, his dignified discretion hasn’t prevented public speculation. Why would Meghan feel so driven to erase this chapter of her life? Some suggest that Meghan wanted a clean slate before stepping into her role as Duchess, while others see it as part of a pattern: when something no longer aligns with her ambitions, she allegedly cuts ties without a backward glance.
Bower also notes that Meghan and Trevor’s wedding wasn’t a single event. They first wed at a courthouse in Los Angeles, followed by a larger, more lavish ceremony in Jamaica. Despite these two events, details are scant—apparently due to the lengths Meghan allegedly went to in order to keep things quiet. Neither Meghan nor Trevor were especially famous at the time, leading some to wonder why the secrecy? Did Meghan already have her sights set on something bigger, maybe even avoiding leaving a paper trail for a future, more high-profile suitor?
Rumor has it that Meghan returned her wedding and engagement rings to Trevor without a word, as if it were a simple return to an online retailer. Reportedly, Trevor’s family found this gesture cold and were deeply hurt by the manner of her final goodbye. For some, this incident feeds into the narrative that Meghan may have viewed the marriage as transactional, not romantic.
Despite her reported efforts, Meghan hasn’t been entirely successful in wiping out her past marriage. Her father, Thomas Markle, allegedly still possesses a collection of wedding photos, keeping the memory of her first wedding alive. These images are now part of the public domain, accessible to anyone willing to search. And Meghan’s attempt to bury this part of her history is complicated further by the fact that around 100 people attended her Jamaica wedding, including several of her *Suits* co-stars. Some, like Abigail Spencer, remain her friends, while others have reportedly drifted away.
The harder Meghan tries to distance herself from her past, the more curiosity it seems to spark among the public. While she may have erased many photos, the memories, court records, and testimonies of those who knew her remain. The ongoing revelations make her carefully curated image as a humanitarian and royal outsider seem almost as if it’s a crafted persona, with fragments of her past still visible beneath the surface.
In the end, Meghan’s efforts to forget her marriage to Trevor Engelson seem as deliberate as her attempts to shape her image today. But the reality is, her past—through photos, records, and memories—remains for anyone determined enough to uncover it.
