Meghan Markle’s recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show has once again sparked controversy, this time drawing the attention of her ex-husband, Trevor Engelson.
Reports suggest that Engelson found amusement in Meghan’s portrayal of herself as a misunderstood figure navigating the challenges of royal life. While Meghan spoke about resilience, overcoming hardships, and staying true to herself, sources close to Engelson claim he was left shaking his head at some of her statements. Having been married to Meghan from 2011 to 2013, Engelson has largely remained silent about their past. However, those who knew Meghan before her royal transformation suggest that there is more to her story than what she presents publicly.
During her interview, Meghan reflected on her struggles with fame, media scrutiny, and feeling like an outsider in the royal family. She passionately emphasized the importance of perseverance and staying strong in the face of adversity. However, Engelson, who supported her during her early Hollywood career, allegedly found some of her claims difficult to take seriously. While Meghan has often painted herself as a victim of circumstance, Engelson’s perspective might present a different narrative. Reports indicate that their marriage came to an abrupt end when Meghan relocated to Toronto for Suits, reportedly leaving Engelson blindsided. Speculation suggests that her ambition sometimes came at the expense of those around her—something her ex-husband may understand all too well.
According to sources, Engelson found irony in Meghan’s statements about loyalty and relationships. One insider noted that Engelson has always known the “real Meghan,” making it difficult for him not to see contradictions in her words. Though he has chosen to stay out of the media spotlight, those close to him suggest that he has long moved on and is happily focused on his life with his new wife and family. However, it appears he couldn’t help but chuckle at what some see as Meghan’s continuously shifting version of events.
Meghan’s television appearances frequently reignite discussions about her credibility and past relationships. While she promotes a narrative of perseverance and self-discovery, critics argue that inconsistencies in her story are becoming harder to ignore. Whether discussing her Hollywood past, royal departure, or ongoing efforts to reshape her public image, there always seems to be someone ready to challenge the accuracy of her claims. Engelson may have laughed off her latest remarks, but public interest in their former relationship shows no signs of fading. As Meghan continues to share her perspective, skepticism remains among those who knew her before her royal days. Whether Engelson will ever publicly address their past remains uncertain, but for now, he appears content to let Meghan tell her story while quietly observing from the sidelines.
