Meghan Markle

Megan Rachel Markle, who left one of her first names and her real surname as a stage name, became famous not only for her successful career in cinema and modeling. Thanks to her marriage to Prince Harry, today the American actress is known as the Duchess of Sussex.

Rachel Megan was born in California, Los Angeles. Looking at the photo of Markle, it is not so easy to notice that she is a mulatto. Her parents belong to different races, so it is difficult to say for sure about her nationality.

Markle does not have a high noble birth, she was brought up in a family of creative people close to the stage and television. Although the girl's father, Thomas Markle, is Irish, according to research, he was a descendant of King Edward III of England. The man is an Emmy Award-winning American television director of photography. And Doria's mother is African-American with a master's degree in sociology and clinical psychology. True, later the woman realized herself as a yoga instructor.

Meghan Markle's early biography was written behind the scenes, surrounded by famous artists. As a child, she loved to draw stars and watch TV shows filmed. When Megan was 11 years old, the girl showed courage and wrote a letter to the first lady of the United States, Hillary Clinton.

In this letter, the child expressed disagreement with the attitude of the creators of advertisements towards women, which are shown during the breaks of daytime soap operas. Little Markle was sure that such videos create the wrong stereotype that a woman can only be in the kitchen, and all her interests are connected only with cooking and cleaning. Surprisingly, the girl's appeal was noticed, and the advertising producers were forced to change its content.

After school, Markle entered the Northwestern University of California, where she received 2 specialties at once - "theater arts" and "international relations". During her studies, she worked as a photo model, and after graduation she chose for herself not an actress career, but a second profession.

Meghan's career took shape at the US Embassy in Buenos Aires, where she became a Public Relations Officer. But her acting biography began by accident: one of her friends, for the sake of interest, invited the girl to go to the casting of a television series, and soon the actress made her debut on the screen.

In 2004, the actress began dating film producer Trevor Engelson. Later they began to live in a civil marriage, and 7 years after they met, Megan's marital status changed: Trevor became the first husband of the actress, for a while she became Mrs. Engelson. True, after the wedding, the couple stayed together for only 2 years, after which they officially filed for divorce.

Former husband Megan steadfastly survived the gap and answered all the questions of journalists: "I have nothing to say about her." After a while, he began dating actress Charlotte McKinney, but this relationship ended in nothing. And in 2019, a man married the daughter of a multimillionaire nutritionist Tracy Kurland.

Meghan later had an affair with Irish professional golfer Rory McIlroy, which continued throughout 2014. In 2016, the sensational news swept the media: Markle is the new girlfriend of Prince Harry of Wales.

There is more than one version of how Megan and Harry met. Some tabloids wrote that they were brought together by designer Misha Nunu, according to other sources, this was facilitated by the childhood friend of Prince Vaolet von Westenholz, who was also friends with Markle.

The lovers at one time hid their relationship, but in November, Prince Harry and Meghan visited Kensington Palace, where they met with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. This allowed us to conclude that the couple is serious and the wedding of Markle and Prince Harry is quite possible. Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain, Harry's reigning grandmother, gave approval to this alliance.

Meghan Markle's personal life is also known to be a lover of cooking, reading quality literature and the board game "Scrabble". Also, in 2016, the actress showed herself as a fashion designer and released her own collection of clothes under the Reitmans brand logo. The young woman talks about all her hobbies on her own blog site The Tig, which is in the life style format.

Megan is no less popular than her daughter-in-law Kate Middleton. A large number of fan pages have been registered in the name of Markle on Instagram, which are updated with news from the life of the Duchess and her new photos.

The woman's life is closely monitored by the paparazzi, and the media is striving to make the hottest headlines with her name. And since the royal family prefers not to devote others to their own relationships, a lot of rumors are born around them. Different stories come up, but most of them are not in Megan's hands.

For example, in 2018, when it became known about the imminent move of Megan and Harry from London to Windsor, information appeared in the news about her conflicts with Kate. They were associated with different origins, life experiences and upbringing of women. At the same time, in each article, representatives of the royal family are compared, which also does not like Middleton.

However, Megan did not have a relationship not only with Kate, she also did not find a common language with the queen. The rules of the royal family obliged a woman to follow the traditions and rules that have appeared over the years. Markle didn't take it too seriously.

However, all these are just rumors, since neither Megan herself nor other family members have confirmed this information. In interviews, they behave with restraint and do not devote the public to personal matters. This is probably why the British do not like Meghan Markle, the woman is imposed on harsh statements towards the Harry family and other actions that characterize her not in the best way.

In search of the "black" past of the Duchess, ill-wishers have resorted to different methods. Markle's appearance also fell under discussion on the Web. Particularly persistent tried to compare Megan's photographs of children and adults to find evidence of her use of face plastics. Because of such "investigations" a woman is suspected of changing the shape of the nose: as it seems to people, it has become smaller.

For the first time on the screen, the actress appeared in 2002 in one episode of the popular medical series "General Hospital", after which she combined small roles and a career as a model. The audience drew attention to her in the epic "90210: The New Generation", as well as in feature films - the thriller "Deception", the crime drama "Apostles" and the comedy "Good Behavior".

The main success was brought to the actress by the legal comedy "Force Majeure", in which she played for several years, as well as films - the American love film "When Sparks Fly", the British crime drama "Anti-Social" and the Canadian romantic comedy "The Diary".

Among the brightest works in the filmography of the artist are secondary roles in the popular TV series "Castle" and the comedy "Horrible Bosses". During her work in the cinema, Megan was lucky to work alongside Jennifer Aniston, Charlie Day, Russell Brand, Robert Pattinson and others.

Prince William and Kate Middleton made their engagement in secret from the public, and Harry and Meghan were less secretive. On November 27, they officially announced their engagement. In order to marry the Prince of England, the American had to change her citizenship and religious denomination.

On May 19, 2018, Harry and Meghan got married. The whole country watched this event. The celebration was attended by members of the royal family, celebrities and subjects. Markle arrived at the altar by car with her mother and little assistants, including Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

Meghan's wedding dress was discussed long before the wedding. New rumors about the outfit of Prince Harry's future wife appeared daily. As a result, most of the insider's assumptions were not confirmed. Clare Waite Keller, head of Givenchy fashion house, provided assistance in choosing the outfit for Markle.

Megan's dress was distinguished by brevity and grace, the veil was 5 meters long. The outfit is sewn of snow-white silk. A diamond tiara complemented Markle's look.

The sight of the bride captivated everyone, including her lover, who, when he looked at Megan, whispered: "You look great." The woman conducted the entire ceremony with a smile, while Harry was very nervous and worried, but tried not to show it.

Among the invited guests were Victoria and David Beckham, Tom Hardy, George and Amal Clooney, Oprah Winfrey and others. But more than the rest, the representative of the royal family, Kate Middleton, who first appeared after the birth of her third child, attracted the attention of herself.

One of the most memorable moments of the celebration was the speech by Bishop Michael Curry. Actually, the man drew attention to himself not so much by the words he said, but by the manner of presentation. He spoke now loudly, now softly, emotionally gesticulated and used other oratorical techniques. Everyone was surprised, including Harry, who himself called the priest to the ceremony.

The most touching moment was Meghan and Harry's vows of love and fidelity. After the newlyweds exchanged wedding rings.

After the wedding, the couple, in a carriage pulled by elite horses, went for a walk around Windsor. Many people gathered there, dreaming of seeing the representatives of the royal family.

After the ceremony, the husband and wife were awarded the titles of Duke and Duchess of Sussex. And in the fall, information appeared that the wife of Prince Harry was pregnant.

On May 6, 2019, the firstborn of the couple was born, who was named Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. Even with the birth of a son, the couple moved away from accepted traditions and showed the baby only on the second day of his life. Megan gave birth at the Portland Hospital in London, an expensive clinic where the cost per day of stay is at least $ 1,000.

A woman is jealous of the help of strangers in raising a child, so she spends most of her time with him herself. After giving birth, she quickly brought her figure into shape - with a height of 171 cm, her weight is about 60 kg.

Although Archie is still very young, the couple think about other children as well. According to media reports, Harry and Megan dream of a big family.

In early 2020, the public was agitated by another scandal that occurred in the royal family. The married couple Harry and Meghan have officially renounced the title of senior members of the crowned family.

After the couple resigned, they also refused funding from the British treasury, as well as providing security. After such a loud statement, Harry and Megan went to Canada. Then Prince Harry, as well as his closest relatives, were invited by Elizabeth II to the family council.

Megan and Harry settled in Canada. And later it became known that the royal couple were planning to buy a house in Los Angeles. If you believe the media, the couple have already contacted a real estate agency.

Megan's style before marriage was different from her current image. At that time, the current wife of Prince Harry preferred short skirts and dresses, she could go out in jeans with holes in the knees and a loose shirt.

Joining the royal family required her to make adjustments to her wardrobe. After the wedding, she replaced the provocative minis with graceful and elegant dresses reaching to mid-calf. Almost always her shoulders were covered, and if the model of the sweater assumed a cutout, Markle threw a jacket or light coat on top.

Megan doesn't like to decorate herself with jewelry, so she uses 1-2 simple rings, a small chain or earrings as accessories. In public places he appears exclusively in stiletto heels. Sometimes she replaced the flowing dresses with the same elegant suits.

She also did not stop wearing jeans, but in such clothes she appeared on the streets of England much less often than in dresses. Although everything changed after giving up the title, today Meghan is happy to wear pants and other simple outfits.

From the latest news about Markle in early February 2020, it became known that the woman plans to work. Megan was invited to participate in the I Do project, Redo. This is a reality show about weddings, where the former duchess got the role of Jessica Mulroney's partner, a wedding stylist. Now she is preparing for filming and is inspired by the new project.

The reality show involves 10 couples whose first wedding failed. Men and women will talk about the fiasco and share ideas for a new celebration. And Megan and Jessica, together with the creators of the project, will help them make their dream come true.
