Secret marriage: Meghan Markle has been blamed for leaving Joe Giuliano for Prince Harry

The idea of ​​a representative of the monarchy to marry a movie star who had already had an unsuccessful experience of family life was not initially met with joy in the palace. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s romance has been moving fast by royal standards. A year after the beginning of their relationship, they announced their engagement, and a year later they had a spectacular wedding.

The Duchess of Sussex was suspected of marrying a man named Joe Giuliano before meeting Prince Harry in 2016. She reportedly became close to him after she moved to Canada when she landed a role on Suits.

The couple had been in a relationship for two years. Some believe that the lovers even got married. “She was married to Joe,” “Meghan left Joe to marry Prince Harry,” said “informed” social media users.

However, no documents, photos or reliable sources confirm that Meghan Markle ever married a man named Joe Giuliano.

The former king was married only twice. Her first husband was American film producer Trevor Engelson. The couple tied the knot on September 10, 2011 in Jamaica. The couple filed for divorce in August 2013 due to “irreconcilable differences”.

Sources close to the duchess believe that the role of Rachel Zane in the series itself was to blame, for which the native of Los Angeles moved to another country. “Meghan landed her role on Suits just a few months before they got married. Although they were together for six years before getting married, things began to fall apart shortly after the wedding. They really fought for their marriage because they were long distance. Trevor lived in Los Angeles and Megan was in Toronto, a five-hour flight away. It’s been a very difficult journey to start married life,” an insider quoted The Sun as saying.

Trevor Engelson began his career in Hollywood as an assistant producer. His most famous film is the melodrama Remember Me with Robert Pattinson in the lead role. Meghan Markle’s ex-husband was an executive producer of US TV shows Heather and Snowfall.

Three years after the divorce, the actress met Prince Harry. Two years ago, the Dukes of Sussex announced they were stepping down from their royal duties and moving to the United States. They now live in Montecito, California with their two children, three-year-old son Archie and one-year-old daughter Lilibet.
