This book is the first in-depth biography of American Actress Meghan Markle. Her unique story of being the first biracial divorcee' to marry a member of the Royal Family is only one aspect of her extraordinary life. Meghan's heritage is unique in that her family history is American and English. This diverse ancestor stems from slavery and how through hard work and persistence her ancestors made a life for themselves in an unforgiving world. She has a European bloodline that is over 400 years old. Meghan's father, Thomas Markle Sr. has links to the Royal Family of Scotland and England. She is the 24th generation descendant of the Medical King Edward III, who was born at Windsor Castle and ruled England successfully for 50 years.
Along with a colorful ancestry we also learn about our Hollywood actress's childhood of being raised by divorced parents who both took an active role in her life. Her mother Doria Ragland worked as a travel agent and would often take Meghan as a young child on trips visiting Mexico and Jamaica. After starting high school Meghan moved in with her father. Thomas Markle, her father, was a lightning director that spent many hours setting the lights for Meghan's theater performances as a young girl. The exposure Meghan had
was a great influence on her in becoming an actress.
Now we can fast-forward to her big actress break in the legal drama, "Suits". A TV series in which designer clothes were as important as the script. This series was the first time I saw Meghan on television and I have been a fan since that time. Meghans sleek and sophisticated look attacked a huge fan base. Her character's name is Rachel Zane, and she is a paralegal with a love interest lawyer Mike Ross.
Megan's success is not only in acting, she is also an advocate for gender equality speaking out at the 2015 U.N. Nations Women's Conference about sexist advertising she experienced as a young child.
She is a sophisticated, poised, and charismatic woman who is camera ready at all times. It's no wonder Prince Harry turned an eye on her before their first meeting. It is no wonder he loves and adores her. In my opinion, she is the perfect woman for him in many ways. As Prince Harry said, "The stars were aligned when we first met".
