<\/p>\nMeghan Markle and Prince Harry have been married for five years. While it was Harry\u2019s first time walking down the aisle, it wasn\u2019t for Meghan. In fact, many years ago, the actress was married to Trevor Engelson. Though, sadly, it didn\u2019t last and ended in quite a bad way.<\/p>\n
Today, Meghan and Trevor are both happily married. It turns out that the former husband of the Suits star has a staggering net worth, and what he does for work might surprise you.<\/p>\n
Not much is really known about Trevor\u2019s life. Not that long ago, a friend of his stepped forward, revealing new things about what happened \u2013 and how Trevor got his \u201crevenge\u201d on the Duchess.<\/p>\n
While at the beginning of what was to be a successful acting career, Meghan met her first husband, Trevor Engelson. According to IMDb, he was born on October 23, 1976, in Great Neck, Long Island, New York, and attended the University of Southern California\u2019s School of Communications.<\/p>\n
Engelson started as a production assistant in the film business but worked his way up to become a film producer. He\u2019s worked on many projects, including the 2010 film Remember Me, starring Robert Pattinson. His then-girlfriend Meghan Markle had a cameo in his movie early on in her acting career.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Moreover, Engelson has been involved in productions such as License to Wed and All About Steve, and has even acted as executive producer on six episodes of the Heathers television remake. In later years, however, Engelson has had great success with the FX television series Snowfall, which had its sixth and last season earlier this year. It was released on his own management and production company, Underground, with its headquarters in Beverly Hills, California.<\/p>\n
According to Grazia, the 45-year-old manages screenwriters, novelists, actors, and film directors in Los Angeles when not on set working with films and television shows.<\/p>\n
Who is Meghan Markle\u2019s ex-husband Trevor Engelson?
\nSo, how did Trevor and Meghan Markle meet? According to The Sun, they crossed paths for the first time in 2004. The couple dated for about seven years before marrying in September 2011. Their wedding took place at the Jamaica Inn in Ocho Rios in Jamaica and lasted for three days.<\/p>\n
According to The Sun, the couple arranged for around 100 guests to attend parties, drinking games at the beach, brunches, and even a wheelbarrow race. The ceremony? Well, that only took 15 minutes.<\/p>\n
As mentioned, Meghan was one of the briefcase models on the game show Deal or No Deal. However, according to the author Andrew Morton\u2019s book Meghan: A Hollywood Princess, Trevor wasn\u2019t too keen on seeing her while she was on set.<\/p>\n
According to Morton (via Express), Engelson didn\u2019t visit her as other husbands or friends of the models did, which was \u201cunusual.\u201d Apparently, this was because he was occupied with his work as a producer and even skipped out on traveling with Meghan during her downtime because of it.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey were driven individuals, Trevor was busy, if not more so than his girlfriend,\u201d royal biographer Andrew Morton wrote in Meghan: A Hollywood Princess.<\/p>\n
Meghan Markle \u201ccouldn\u2019t imagine life without Trevor\u201d
\n\u201cIt was also noticeable that, unlike the boyfriends and husbands of her Deal or No Deal sisters, Trevor never visited Meghan on set.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was so unusual that his absence was commented on by the other girls. However, there were plenty of other celebrities, mainly sports stars, who dropped by, some clearly trying to get up close and personal with the girls,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
In 2011, the same year Meghan and Trevor married, Meghan Markle debuted on the television series Suits. It was an instant success, and not long after, she moved to Toronto as the show was mainly filmed there.<\/p>\n
Meghan landed the role just months before she married Trevor, and having to take a five-hour flight to see each other became an obstacle for married life. They stayed connected through video calls, but it didn\u2019t solve the challenging situation.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhether she wanted to admit it to herself or not, Meghan who once said she couldn\u2019t imagine life without Trevor by her side, was now building a new world for herself,\u201d Andrew Morton wrote in Meghan: A Hollywood Princess. \u201cAs Toronto was becoming more her home than LA, the dynamics in their relationship subtly altered.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Meghan Markle allegedly posted her wedding ring to Trevor Engelson
\nMarkle stayed on Suits for more than 100 episodes until 2018. But by 2013, she and Trevor Engelson had divorced. The couple cited \u201cirreconcilable differences\u201d at the time.<\/p>\n
At a later stage, Markle\u2019s half-brother Thomas told Express that Trevor \u201cworshipped the ground she walked on.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTrevor was devastated at the split,\u201d an insider told The Sun in 2017.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe suddenly had no more time for him. Meghan broke Trevor\u2019s heart, pure and simple. He is still in love with her and so the revelation of her new relationship with Harry has hit him hard.\u201d<\/p>\n
Royal biographer Andrew Morton suggested that the split shocked Trevor \u2013 and that Meghan even posted her engagement and wedding rings to him as a sign that their marriage had ended.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs Toronto was becoming more her home than LA, the dynamics in their relationship subtly altered. She was her own woman now, earning a steady income, making new friends on set and off, no longer dependent on her husband\u2019s connections.\u201d<\/p>\n
Separated in 2013
\nIndeed, the spit between Meghan and Trevor seems to have been quite dramatic. Meghan\u2019s former childhood friend Nikki Priddy and author Lady Colin Campbell seem to think so, in any case.<\/p>\n
In the book Meghan and Harry: The Real Story, Campbell wrote that after moving to Toronto, Meghan began hanging out with celebrities, including celebrity stylist Jesica Mulroney.<\/p>\n
It led the former Suits star to distance herself from her then-husband.<\/p>\n
\u201cTrevor had always been laidback where she was controlled and controlling,\u201d Lady Colin Campbell wrote.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe would arrive for appointments slightly late and disheveled, his shirt out of his trousers and maybe a spot of food on his lapel, while the perfectly contained and self-possessed Meghan was always immaculately turned out.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meghan Markle and Trevor Engelson went their separate ways in 2013. So what happened after that? We know what Meghan went on to do, but for Trevor, even though he still is in the spotlight as a well-known producer, he didn\u2019t appear in any interviews or made headlines.<\/p>\n
After splitting from Meghan, Trevor dated Bethenny Frenkel, known from Real Housewives of New York.<\/p>\n
In an interview with the Australia Kyle and Jackie O Show in April 2018, she revealed that they were dating \u2013 and knew about his history with Meghan.<\/p>\n
\u201cI met him in Chicago, and we were supposed to go out, and I ended up seeing him one time, and he\u2019d been texting me. He\u2019s a producer in LA. He told me that he was married before, he\u2019s divorced [now]. He was married to this girl named Meghan Markle from the TV show Suits.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meghan crushed him when she demanded a divorce, friend says
\nSince tying the knot, the couple have welcomed two daughters: Ford Grace Engelson, born in August 2020, and Sienna Lee Engelson, born in November 2021.<\/p>\n
The way Meghan and Trevor\u2019s marriage ended was., of course, not what any of them wanted. They have never really spoken about what happened. However, a friend of Trevor, who\u2019s chosen to be anonymous, now reveals that Meghan\u2019s former husband was absolutely devastated afterward.<\/p>\n
However, today, the friend says, he has gotten his \u201crevenge:\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFor a long time, things were difficult for Trevor. He\u2019s a good guy, but Meghan crushed him when she demanded a divorce. When she took up with Prince Harry, he was crushed all over again because he was constantly reminded of her because of the publicity around the marriage and then the drama of the Oprah interview. But that\u2019s all in the past now,\u201d the friend told the Daily Mail.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I saw him recently, he kept going on about how he\u2019s the happiest he\u2019s ever been, how he loves being a dad, and how he\u2019s never felt more fulfilled.\u201d<\/p>\n
Engelson\u2019s friend added, \u201cEveryone in Trevor\u2019s life knows not to mention the \u2018M\u2019 word. He\u2019s moved on and, in some ways, you could say he\u2019s having an even better life than Meghan. He probably has more money than she does now; he\u2019s doing what he loves, and he\u2019s out of the spotlight. It\u2019s the ultimate revenge.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to the Daily Mail, Trevor Engelson and his wife live in a \u201cwealthy\u201d Los Angeles neighborhood. He is said to \u201cadore\u201d his wife and children, and when he\u2019s with them, he \u201cnever stops smiling,\u201d his friend told the news outlet.<\/p>\n
