Unsurprisingly, one person who didn’t feature in Meghan and Harry’s new documentary is the Duchess’s ex-husband, Trevor Engelson.
Trevor, a 44-year-old American television producer, dated Meghan, 41, for seven years before the pair married in 2011.They were married for two years before separating and were divorced by August 2013, citing ‘irreconcilable differences’, with sources previously claiming they grew apart when Meghan took a new role on Suits, two months before their wedding.
Both are now remarried and have children, with Trevor and his new wife Tracey Kurland welcoming two babies since their marriage in October 2018 – just months after Harry and Meghan’s royal wedding.

Trevor has produced the likes of License to Wed, Heathers, Snowfall and All About Steve and also manages screenwriters, actors, novelists and film directors in LA.

The couple met in a bar in West Hollywood in 2004 and had been together for six years when Meghan got her break as Rachel Zane in Suits.
A book out this year by Tom Bower, titled Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors, says the first years of the relationship were blissful, with Meghan barely able to ‘keep her hands off’ her boyfriend and nicknaming him ‘Trevity-Trev-Trev.’
He proposed in Belize and they tied the knot on September 10, 2011 at the Jamaica Inn in Ocho Rios, Jamaica before having a four day celebration.

Why did they split?

giving them a ‘very difficult start to married life’, according to a source who spoke to Woman’s Day magazine.
The insider said: ‘Meghan landed her role in Suits just a few months before they married.

He added: ‘If necessary, Suits was her get-out card from the relationship.’
