Meghan Markle had her first husband agree to a “pregnancy contract” to ensure she had every luxury during pregnancy, a close friend revealed to the source. The then-rising actress was so concerned about the challenges of pregnancy and maintaining her celebrity figure that she demanded Trevor Engelson pay for a personal trainer and a nutritionist if they conceived. Additionally, she arranged for childcare details, ensuring Engelson would cover the cost of a nanny.
This revelation comes just days after Meghan and Prince Harry announced they were expecting their first child, adding a new layer to the phrase “too posh to push.”
At the time of the agreement, which occurred a few years after Meghan’s 2011 wedding to Engelson, she was achieving success with the TV series “Suits.” The friend, once close to Meghan, mentioned that the Duchess was focused on avoiding weight gain due to her career and the family tendency towards a heavier body type. Meghan was particularly concerned about her face showing any weight gain, prompting her to insist on having a personal trainer and a nutritionist during and after pregnancy.
Pregnancy contracts, increasingly popular in the US and especially in Los Angeles, typically cover parental responsibilities and household duties after childbirth. However, Meghan’s main focus was on health and weight management. The agreement, which Meghan wrote herself, was informal but taken very seriously by her. Engelson, understanding Meghan’s concerns about her image and her insecurity about her body, complied without objection.
Meghan and Engelson, who met in 2004 and married in 2011, saw their relationship strain as Meghan filmed “Suits” in Toronto while Engelson remained in Los Angeles. They separated in the summer of 2013 and divorced in 2014 citing “irreconcilable differences.” Engelson has since remarried, tying the knot with nutritionist Tracey Kurland in a low-key ceremony in October.
Now part of the Royal Family, Meghan’s image is carefully managed, and she enjoys every luxury. A friend noted that Meghan loves being pampered and is likely thrilled about impending motherhood. She aims to balance being a symbol of feminism and empowerment with her roles as a mother and a royal.
Despite her excitement, Meghan’s desire for control and her image-conscious nature may cause some insecurity about the future. Her friend hopes Prince Harry is ready to support her through this new chapter, as Meghan sets high standards for him, partly due to her strained relationship with her father. Meghan and Harry are currently on a royal tour in Fiji, where Harry expressed his hope for their first child to be a girl during a toast at a state dinner.
