Meghan and Trevor Engelson started dating in 2004

Their marriage came under strain as Meghan was filming in Toronto while he was based in California

They had started dating in 2004, as Meghan was looking to establish herself as an actor in Hollywood, and tied the knot in Ocho Rios in September 2011. 

But their marriage came under strain as Meghan was filming in Toronto while he was based in California – and the pair spent little time together. 

Filing for divorce in August 2013, Meghan citied “irreconcilable differences” – just as her acting career was taking off. 

Meghan had even sent her her diamond engagement and wedding ring back to her estranged husband in the mail, according to royal biographer Andrew Morton. 

In his book, Meghan: A Hollywood Princess, Morton wrote that the move had shocked Trevor – and he could “barely contain his anger” afterwards. 

Morton claims that Engelson told a pal that he went from cherishing Meghan to “a piece of something stuck to the bottom of Meghan’s shoe”. 

Nina Priddy, who was Meghan’s best friend and maid of honour at the wedding, said she didn’t want to “associate herself” with Meghan after the incident. 

She told the Express: “The way she handled it, Trevor definitely had the rug pulled out from under him. He was hurt.”

Abby Wathan, a pal of Meghan’s who also worked with her on the movie Random Encounters, told ITV documentary Prince Harry and Meghan: Truly Madly Deeply that they had bonded while both going through a divorce.

She said: “I was destroyed but she was empowered.

“She took her power back. It wasn’t the right relationship for her, so she moved on.”
