Meghan Markle’s Secretive Past: The Mystery of Her First Marriage
In the world of celebrity, where every detail is scrutinized, it's intriguing to discover that Meghan Markle's first marriage to Trevor Engelson remains shrouded in secrecy.
While their union lasted just two years, the circumstances surrounding it raise eyebrows, especially with allegations that Meghan attempted to erase evidence of her past.
Trevor Engelson, a 44-year-old television producer, was married to Meghan from 2011 to 2013.
Their relationship spanned seven years before they tied the knot, but sources suggest their marriage crumbled shortly after Meghan landed a role in the hit series “Suits.”
Reports indicate that the couple grew apart, leading to their eventual divorce, which was finalized citing irreconcilable differences.
Tom Bauer, in his book “Revenge,” claims that Meghan took drastic measures to hide her first marriage.
He suggests that she destroyed any evidence linking her to Trevor, raising the question: what exactly was she trying to conceal?
According to Bauer, there were two wedding ceremonies—one at a Los Angeles courthouse and a more lavish celebration in Jamaica, which was little more than a party lasting just 15 minutes.
The Jamaican ceremony was attended by 102 guests, including some cast members from “Suits.”
Yet, Bauer asserts that details about this event were kept so secretive that only a court order could uncover them.
This secrecy seems peculiar, especially considering neither Meghan nor Trevor were particularly famous at the time.
Initially, their relationship was described as blissful.
Meghan was smitten, even affectionately calling Trevor “Trevity Trev Trev.” However, Bauer suggests that her motivations for marrying Trevor were questionable.
He claims that Meghan was more interested in the trappings of marriage, like the engagement ring, rather than a genuine love for Trevor.
Engelson's parents reportedly saw through Meghan's intentions and were heartbroken when she returned the wedding and engagement rings without a word.
This act of betrayal only added to the drama surrounding their split.
It's also notable that Meghan insisted on a no-photo policy during their wedding, yet some images still exist, thanks to one of Trevor's family members.
Despite her efforts to keep the marriage under wraps, over 100 witnesses were present in Jamaica.
Among them were the cast of “Suits,” leading to speculation about their opinions of Meghan.
Some insiders suggest that not everyone in the cast was fond of her, with Sarah Rafferty, who played Rachel Zane's best friend, allegedly harboring some reservations.
After leaving Trevor, Meghan seemed to view her exit as a positive step.
Bauer notes that she felt unburdened by the relationship, suggesting that “Suits” served as her escape route.
While Trevor was busy pursuing his career in Los Angeles, Meghan was often away, which strained their relationship.
Complicating matters further, Meghan's insistence on privacy did not account for the reality of public records.
The marriage was officially documented at the Los Angeles courthouse, and when the divorce was finalized, Meghan didn't seek an annulment.
This raises additional questions about her motivations and the lengths she went to in attempting to erase her past.
What remains puzzling is why Meghan never outright denied her previous marriage to Trevor.
If she sought to eliminate all traces of it, why not simply acknowledge it?
The destruction of the wedding tape doesn't erase the fact that a marriage occurred, nor does it eliminate the paper trail left behind.
As the narrative unfolds, it becomes clear that Meghan Markle's past is far more complex than it appears on the surface.
