Before Meghan Markle joined the royal family and married Prince Harry, she was previously wed to Hollywood producer Trevor Engelson, and the couple had a less-than-perfect union.

In fact, according to a royal biographer, Meghan once blasted her ex-husband for being “incredibly unprofessional”. 

Meghan and Trevor had been dating since 2004, and tied the knot on September 10, 2011 in Jamaica.

However, the cracks in their relationship were apparently starting to appear three weeks before their wedding when Trevor made an obscure podcast called ‘Schmoedown’ and an unhappy Meghan watched the livestream from her home in Toronto.

According to Andrew Morton’s 2018 book Meghan A Hollywood Princess, she texted him to “put that flask down, it looks incredibly unprofessional”.

Trevor was talking about his career with two friends in a “breezy self-deprecating manner that was very different to his bride-to-be who, as her former colleagues on Deal or No Deal observed, was always very self-contained and considered.”

He wrote: “The podcast hinted at their personality differences, Trevor loose-lipped, unconcerned, carefree, a striking counterpart to Meghan, who was archly protective of ‘brand Meghan’, always keen to project an air of sophistication and style.

“She may have felt at times that Trevor was too brashly laid back for comfort, especially not that her star was rising; Suits had been picked up for a second season.”

The differences in their relationship styles became more pronounced, and they divorced in 2013.

Three years later Meghan met Prince Harry on a blind date. The pair went on to marry in 2018, and welcomed their first child, Archie Harrison, in May 2019. 

Trevor has also since found happiness and is also remarried. He wed nutritionist Tracey Kurland in California last year.

“It couldn’t have been more different than the royal wedding,” a source told Entertainment Tonight.

” This was not stuffy! It was fun and casual and absolutely beautiful. Everyone was having the best time, especially Trevor and Tracey.
