Divorce
Markle was already married. Then her chosen one was the little-known film director and producer Trevor Engelson.
However, their marriage lasted only two years (2011-2013). As The Sun writes, citing sources from Woman's Day, at that time Megan received a role in Suits, which significantly affected the relationship with her husband, in particular, the couple could not stand the test of distance.

Career
The girl graduated from Northwestern University with a degree in Theater and International Relations. For some time Megan herself worked at the American embassy in Buenos Aires.
But her star journey began with a role in the American TV series “Suits” (Suits, 2011). The actress also starred in the series “CSI: Miami” and “90210: The Next Generation” (90210) and several films.
In the series, Markle repeatedly had to act in explicit scenes, so her profession is not very suitable for the future wife of a prince.

The actress ended her film career, and the seventh season of Suits was Megan's last. In addition, her colleague and on-screen lover, actor Patrick Jay Adams, left the project along with her.

Meghan Markle with her mother Doria
Not a day without news about 37-year-old Meghan Markle! Today, the Duchess's uncle Joseph Johnson provided the British press with exclusive photographs of little Megan. An entire children's album was published on the Daily Mail. Here Markle's mother Doria is photographed in a hospital room in Los Angeles, this is the first shot of baby Meghan (photo taken on August 4, 1981), and here is four-month-old Meghan enjoying her first Christmas, lying on an unmade bed next to gifts that are hidden in a raspberry bag with "Santa Claus" inscription. Here she is taking her first steps, playing hide and seek with Doria, licking ice cream and smearing it on her cheeks, tasting barbecue ribs, helping her mother feed the pigeons, opening gifts at her second birthday party...

Other pictures tell about the happy childhood of the future duchess, from the very first minutes of her life to adolescence. These photographs have special meaning to her family.
I think now is the right time for the world to see another side of Meghan's family - the positive side. And finally they will all make peace and begin to take part in each other’s lives,
- Joseph Johnson explained his action to a Daily Mail reporter, hinting at the constant whirlpool of scandals surrounding her paternal relatives, including her father and half-brother and sister.

We've already seen plenty of photos of young Meghan with her father, Thomas, but these photos mostly show Markle with Doria and grandmother Jeanette Johnson, the women who influenced her the most. He said Meghan inherited many of her grandmother Jeanette's values, including her self-confidence, intelligence and sense of humor. Although Prince Harry's future wife's mother and father did not divorce until she was six years old, Mr Johnson believes their marriage was already on the rocks by the time she was born. Because Doria had to return to work for financial reasons soon after the baby was born, Megan was left in the care of her grandmother.
Doria and my mother lived around the corner from each other in Los Angeles, so Jeanette played a big role in Megan's upbringing. After the baby was born, Doria continued her career as a make-up artist and then a flight attendant, and my mother looked after Megan during the day. Janette was incredibly happy
- he recalls.
After entering university, Megan began to see her grandmother less often, but still regularly visited her. Jeanette died of heart disease and stroke in 2000 at the age of 71. Markle was next to her at the time, at her bedside.

This is why, Joseph believes, Megan so badly wants Doria to play an important role in the life of her own child. According to rumors, after the birth of the heir, Doria will move to Frogmore Cottage.
I think that Doria will help her in everything. Megan will physically not have enough time for everything. She should be nearby. Doria instilled love, kindness and self-esteem in Megan and taught her the value of helping others. I hope that she will pass on these values to her baby,
Megan's uncle said.
Johnson also recalled how his family received the surprising news that their little Meghan was dating Prince Harry:
We were all simply stunned. I'm shocked. Especially Doria. She was so excited. She simply said: “My little flower! How can this be true? This is incredible. My little flower will be a princess."
What you read in the press about Megan is not at all like her. Megan is truly a wonderful person. I admire Doria for the way she raised her. She is not afraid to be herself.
She loves the spotlight, she learned to be in the public eye in Hollywood, it's good training, so she can handle it all. I've read that some of Harry's previous girlfriends didn't stand up to scrutiny. But Megan loves the fact that everyone is watching her every move.
For obvious reasons, Meghan no longer maintains contact with the Johnsons, as well as with almost all family members, including, of course, her father. However, Johnson is confident that they can resume communication for the sake of the child, at least he hopes so. After the wedding, he closely followed Megan's progress in newspapers and magazines. He welcomes the couple's decision to bring in their own team of specialists to help with the birth:
They want to do things their own way, which is good.
Regarding the baby's gender, recalling how Meghan grew up in a family dominated by strong, independent women, he says:
I think she probably wants a girl. But Harry, I'm sure, is dreaming about a boy. A daughter would be a real consolation for Megan. There will be more problems with the boy.
In the meantime, he, like millions of royal fans, is eagerly awaiting the first photographs of his great-niece or nephew:
I wonder if he or she will have curly hair or red hair.
Charity
Markle is a global ambassador for World Vision Canada. She visited Rwanda, Africa, as part of a campaign to campaign for universal access to clean water. She also flew to Afghanistan to support the American troops serving there. In 2014, the actress participated in the UN campaign for gender equality.
Also in January of this year, Meghan flew to India to talk to girls and women about the stigma of menstruation and wrote an essay about this problem.

The very first photograph of the Duchess
The strange expression on the face of a new mother is familiar to every young woman who has just given birth.
The photograph captures a whirlpool of feelings, mixing uncontrollable joy with complete exhaustion, relief with slight excitement.
In contrast to her mother, the baby sitting on her lap is a model of serenity. And this takes into account the fact that only a couple of hours have passed since her first acquaintance with the real world.

Meghan is not a 'difficult duchess'
In an extended interview that Johnson gave at his art studio in Fresno, California, USA, he stated:
“Meghan is absolutely not burdened by her new position, she admires royal life.”
He does not acknowledge that Meghan is a “difficult duchess,” as royal staff have dubbed her for her wayward behavior.
His wife Pamela is upset with Megan for not inviting any family members to the wedding, with the exception of Doria.
He was shocked when Princess Michael of Kent appeared at a Christmas banquet attended by Meghan Markle wearing a racist African brooch.
He is proud that Meghan and Harry decided to break from tradition and choose their own team of gynecologists for the birth instead of the royal ones.
He believes that Megan is expecting a girl, as a boy could be a source of big problems for her.
