Inside Meghan Markle’s homes from before she was Royal & how they’re vastly different to sister-in-law Princess Kate’s

MEGHAN Markle lived in several homes before her life within the Royal Family that are vastly different to Princess Kate's.

The Duchess of Sussex lived in a two-bedroom property with mum Doria Ragland and dad Thomas Markle when she was first born.

Half-siblings Thomas Jr and Samantha also lived with her in Los Angeles, California, until she was two.

But she moved to an apartment in LA with her mum when her parents divorced in 1983.

She divided her time between there and her dad's apartment until she left for university in 1999.

When studying at Northwestern University in Illinois, she lived in sorority house in the middle of campus.

And she lived with her two dogs Guy and Bogart in Toronto, Canada, when she was filming Suits.

From 2011 to 2013, she owned a mansion in LA with then-husband Trevor Engelson until they divorced. It is on sale for around £1.5million.

It has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a huge garden with an al fresco dining area, reports.

Meghan returned to her home in Toronto until she moved to London with Prince Harry.

Just after their engagement was mad public in November 2017, the couple moved into the two-bedroom Nottingham Cottage on Kensington Palace's grounds.

They left in early 2019 when they moved into Frogmore Cottage. This became their official residence.

When they wanted to quit Royal life, they temporarily moved into Hollywood actor Tyler Perry's former home in Beverly Hills, which had 12 bedrooms and eight bathrooms.

Meghan's homes compare with Princess Kate's childhood home.

Footage of the family home in Bucklebury, Berkshire, was posted by her younger brother James Middleton in 2020.

It showed perfectly manicured lawns and family photos were up in the house.
