News How Meghan Markle’s ex-husband got his ‘revenge’ on her

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have celebrated five years of marriage. For Harry, this was his inaugural experience walking down the aisle, whereas Meghan had previously been married to Trevor Engelson. Unfortunately, that marriage ended poorly and did not endure.

Currently, both Meghan and Trevor are in happy marriages. Interestingly, Trevor, the former spouse of the “Suits” actress, possesses an impressive net worth, and his professional endeavors may come as a surprise.

Details about Trevor’s life remain relatively scarce. Recently, a friend of his disclosed new insights regarding their past and how Trevor sought “revenge” on the Duchess.

During the early stages of her promising acting career, Meghan encountered her first husband, Trevor Engelson. As noted on IMDb, he was born on October 23, 1976, in Great Neck, Long Island, New York, and pursued his education at the University of Southern California’s School of Communications.

Engelson began his career as a production assistant in the film industry and gradually advanced to the role of film producer. He has contributed to various projects, including the 2010 film “Remember Me,” which starred Robert Pattinson. Meghan Markle, his then-girlfriend, made a cameo appearance in this film early in her acting journey.

In addition, Engelson has participated in productions such as “License to Wed” and “All About Steve,” and served as executive producer for six episodes of the television remake of “Heathers.” In more recent years, Engelson has achieved significant success with the FX series “Snowfall,” which concluded its sixth and final season earlier this year. This series was produced under his own management and production company, Underground, located in Beverly Hills, California.
Grazia reports that the 45-year-old is responsible for managing screenwriters, novelists, actors, and film directors in Los Angeles when not engaged in film and television production.

Who is Trevor Engelson, Meghan Markle’s former spouse?
How did Trevor and Meghan Markle first meet? The Sun reveals that their initial encounter occurred in 2004. The couple was in a relationship for approximately seven years before tying the knot in September 2011. Their wedding ceremony was held at the Jamaica Inn in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, and spanned three days.

As reported by The Sun, the couple organized festivities for around 100 guests, which included beach parties, drinking games, brunches, and even a wheelbarrow race. The actual wedding ceremony, however, was quite brief, lasting only 15 minutes.

It is noted that Meghan was one of the briefcase models on the game show Deal or No Deal. Nevertheless, according to Andrew Morton’s book, Meghan: A Hollywood Princess, Trevor was not particularly enthusiastic about visiting her on set.

Morton (as cited by Express) indicates that Engelson did not make appearances like other husbands or friends of the models, which was considered “unusual.” This was likely due to his commitments as a producer, which led him to forgo traveling with Meghan during her free time.

“They were both highly driven individuals; Trevor was just as busy, if not busier, than his girlfriend,” royal biographer Andrew Morton stated in Meghan: A Hollywood Princess.
Meghan Markle expressed that she “couldn’t envision life without Trevor.”

It was particularly striking that, in contrast to the partners of her Deal or No Deal colleagues, Trevor did not visit Meghan on set.

This absence was so notable that it drew comments from the other women. In contrast, numerous other celebrities, primarily athletes, frequently visited, with some seemingly eager to engage with the cast members, he noted.

In 2011, the same year Meghan and Trevor tied the knot, Meghan Markle made her debut on the television series Suits. The show quickly gained popularity, prompting her relocation to Toronto, where the majority of filming took place.

Meghan secured her role just months prior to her marriage to Trevor, and the necessity of a five-hour flight to see one another posed a significant challenge to their married life. Although they maintained communication through video calls, this did not alleviate the difficulties they faced.

“Whether she was willing to acknowledge it or not, Meghan, who had previously stated she couldn’t imagine life without Trevor, was now in the process of creating a new existence for herself,” Andrew Morton wrote in Meghan: A Hollywood Princess. “As Toronto increasingly became her home over Los Angeles, the dynamics of their relationship began to shift subtly.”
Meghan Markle reportedly sent her wedding ring back to Trevor Engelson following their divorce. Markle remained a cast member of Suits for over 100 episodes until 2018, but by 2013, she and Engelson had ended their marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.”

Later, Markle’s half-brother Thomas expressed to Express that Trevor “worshipped the ground she walked on.” An insider revealed to The Sun in 2017 that “Trevor was devastated by the separation.”

“He suddenly found himself with no time from her. Meghan broke Trevor’s heart, plain and simple. He still harbors feelings for her, and the news of her new relationship with Harry has deeply affected him.”

Royal biographer Andrew Morton indicated that the breakup was a shock to Trevor, suggesting that Meghan even returned her engagement and wedding rings as a definitive end to their marriage. He noted, “As Toronto began to feel more like home for her than Los Angeles, the dynamics of their relationship shifted. She had become an independent woman, earning her own income, forming new friendships both on and off set, and no longer relying on her husband’s connections.”
