Meghan Markle’s Unbelievable Journey

Mixed beauty Meghan Markle went from a relatively unknown television star to gracing the covers of magazines with the Royal family.

Meghan Markle’s background and her story: was she always an actress?

The 36-year old stunner was born and raised in California. Her background and reason for her exotic look is due to African American and Dutch-Irish roots. Her father was a photographer director on TV sets while her mother was a social worker and yoga instructor – she definitely didn’t grow up in the spotlight like Harry. She also didn’t always act – while she got discovered at a party, she previously worked as a freelance calligrapher. Her IG (now deleted) was filled with glamorous Hollywood pics and selfies, but with interior designs images, on-set photos, and her two rescue dogs, Guy and Bogart. The “Suits” show creator said Meghan got the role due to her tough attitude who was still authentic and likeable. No wonder Harry fell for her!

Their relationship faced troubles and strife, just like everyone else.

While millions of women gave an eye-roll to Meghan due to pure jealousy, she also received atrocious treatment due to her race and found it difficult to become accepted by Britain and the Royal family. But the bond between Harry and her was strong enough to rise above the hatred and prejudice, and because of that, is she’s now the first woman of color to marry into the Royal family. Meghan is an inspiring reminder that facing tough adversity is where revolution and positive change is most powerfully created.
