Meghan Markle, born Rachel Meghan Markle on August 4, 1981, in Los Angeles, California, is a former actress who became a member of the British royal family through her marriage to Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex. Meghan's early life was spent in the Hollywood area, where she attended private schools and developed an interest in acting and social issues. She graduated from Northwestern University in 2003 with a degree in theater and international studies, which hinted at her future activism in humanitarian causes.
Meghan's acting career is best known for her role as Rachel Zane on the American TV drama "Suits," which she played from 2011 until her departure from the show in 2018. Before her role on "Suits," she took on various parts in TV shows and movies but didn't gain significant fame until her appearance on the series. Alongside her acting career, Meghan ran a lifestyle blog called The Tig from 2014 to 2017, where she shared her views on food, fashion, beauty, and travel, as well as her humanitarian and social interests.
Meghan's relationship with Prince Harry was made public in 2016, and the couple announced their engagement in November 2017. They married on May 19, 2018, at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle. The marriage meant Meghan became the Duchess of Sussex. Their union was notable for its break from traditional royal protocols and for Meghan's status as a biracial, American divorcee becoming a senior member of the British royal family.
Following their marriage, Meghan and Harry undertook royal duties on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II. Meghan quickly became involved in charitable work, focusing on issues such as gender equality, mental health, and social justice. However, the couple faced intense media scrutiny and reported struggles within the royal institution, leading them to step back from their roles as senior royals in January 2020, a decision that became official in February 2021.
After stepping back, Meghan and Harry moved to North America, where they have been involved in various charitable activities and have signed deals with Netflix and Spotify to produce content that informs and gives hope. They also launched Archewell Inc., an organization to oversee their charitable work, creative media ventures, and other business activities. Meghan has continued to advocate for social issues, including gender equality and racial justice, and has published a children's book titled "The Bench." The couple has two children, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Lilibet "Lili" Mountbatten-Windsor.

Prince Harry, whose full name is Henry Charles Albert David, was born on September 15, 1984, in London, England. He is the younger son of Charles, Prince of Wales (now King Charles III), and Diana, Princess of Wales, making him a prominent member of the British royal family. He is the younger brother of Prince William, Duke of Cambridge.
Prince Harry spent his early years in the public eye, attending prestigious schools such as Wetherby Preparatory School, Ludgrove School, and Eton College. His mother's tragic death in a car crash in 1997 deeply affected him and has been a defining moment in his life, influencing his personal and public endeavors.
After finishing his education at Eton, Harry took a gap year, during which he worked in Australia and Africa. He then entered the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, embarking on a military career that lasted for ten years. He served in the British Army, rising to the rank of Captain and undertaking two tours of duty in Afghanistan. His military service has been a significant aspect of his adult life, shaping his character and commitments.
Prince Harry has been known for his charitable work and advocacy, much like his mother. He has focused on issues such as mental health, support for veterans, and HIV/AIDS awareness. In 2006, he co-founded the charity Sentebale in Lesotho, Africa, to help vulnerable children affected by extreme poverty and the HIV/AIDS epidemic. He also launched the Invictus Games in 2014, an international sporting event for wounded, injured, and sick servicemen and women, both serving and veterans, to inspire recovery and support rehabilitation.
In terms of his personal life, Harry's relationships and experiences have been widely covered by the media. He married American actress Meghan Markle on May 19, 2018, at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle. The couple, known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have two children: Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Lilibet "Lili" Mountbatten-Windsor. In early 2020, Harry and Meghan announced their decision to step back as senior members of the royal family and work towards becoming financially independent, a move that garnered global attention. They have since relocated to the United States and have been involved in various media and charitable projects through their Archewell Foundation.
Prince Harry has authored and contributed to several works, including a memoir detailing his life in the royal family, his personal challenges, and his decision to step back from his royal duties. His public statements and actions continue to spark discussions about the role of the monarchy, media ethics, and mental health advocacy.
