We can be like her. Reporter the woman who has walked the walk before walking the world stage. Any opportunity to help people that have less than you will change how you move in the World Without question. Reporter from finding her voice. Rachel enters wearing a towel. I said no. Not doing it. Reporter to activist speaking her heart. Now capturing prince harrys. This beautiful woman trip and fell into my life. This is 20 20. Reporter its not a palace, its not a mansion. In fact its just an apartment above a garage, but for the very uncommon commoner born Rachel Meghan markle, this was home. And if you follow the driveway back thats where the yard is and meghan lived in the back upstairs. Meghan markle grew up here in los angeles. Her father worked on various tv series here in town. Her mother got a masters in social work from the university of southern california, usc. And she describes her as a freespirited clinical therapist. Reporter like so many children, including the one who would become her fiance, early in life megan had to endure the divorce of her parents. They may have separated when she was around 2. Divorced when she was around 6. Starting at age two until around six megan lived with her mom doria, seen here on her instagram in that garage apartment in the ethnically diverse middleclass miracle mile neighborhood according to nantille charbonnet, their former landlord. She was gentle, she was soft, and perceptive. She was always listening and paying attention. Reporter by all accounts her parents remained amicable and she caught the showbiz bug through her fathers job as a director of photography for the bawdy 90s sitcom married with children. I need a vacation. Peg if you want to visit some place new, try the kitchen. Reporter her parents divorced when she was quite young. Her father worked on married with children. So from married with children to the windsor clan. Thats thats a neat arc. Reporter huge arc. Yes, the girl who will be marrying into the house of windsor grew up in the house of bundy. Here she is with members of the cast. On the set every day for ten years i was there. Its a very perverse place for a little girl to grow up and then the guests the first ten years of Meghan Markles life in no way, shape, or form compare to or match up to the first ten years of any other princesss life ever. Ever. Reporter with an African American mother and a white father, there is Something Else meghan grapples with that sets her far apart from other royals. I think we can safely say that dealing with profound issues of racism and inequality have not factored into any current princesss life. Reporter the question of race and identity becomes a theme throughout meghans life. Shes been outspoken about the topic here she is at a usa network event. Im biracial. Most people cant really tell what im mixed with, so, much of my life has felt like being a fly on the wall. And so some of the slurs that ive heard, the really offensive jokes, or the names, its just hit me in a really strong way. But its not only issues of race shes tackling early on in life. Meghan was also confronting gender inequality in advertising. Dont believe it . See for yourself on this nick news segment. My name is Meghan Markle and im 12 years old. Its always mom does this and mom does that. Reporter as the story goes, this all came about after young meghan saw this commercial during a class. Women are fighting greasy pots and pans i was furious. And i said i think ill write a letter. The president of proctor and gamble proctor and gamble companies. I was wondering if you would be able to change your commercial to people all over america. Three months after meghan wrote to the president of the company proctor and gamble changed the commercial. People are fighting greasy pots and pans with ivory clear. She had a lot of inner strength. She was spunky. She was feisty. She took our social justice teaching very seriously. Reporter Christine Knudsen and maria polia both taught meghan theology at the all girls school immaculate heart. I taught meghan in this very classroom when she was a junior. Here we have a lot of girls who are multiracial multiethnic, and it makes life really interesting and it makes our classes really interesting. Reporter these days, this photo of meghan on the wall of has become the student bodys star of fame. And shes one of our sisters. cause like everyone that comes here is like, were all so technically we could probably be part of the royal family too. Shes so pretty. Shes definitely really inspiring, and she knows what shes saying. Were like following her footsteps in a way. Yeah. Shes definitely not afraid to say what she needs to say and stand up for whatevers right. So, three words i would use to describe meghan would be kind, generous and enthusiastic. Reporter Catherine Knight first met meghan in middle school. I was in seventh grade. She was an eighth grader. And i just remember being so taken with her, i remember kind of running into her coming out of the bathroom one day. Like, bumping into her and thinking, oh, no. But and she was so nice. Shes, like, oh, hi, how are you . And, oh, i i loved your dance at at culture day, and it was one of those things where i was, like, oh, she knows who i am. Reporter she still has the old yearbooks with meghans notes to her. It says, dear catherine, hey, beautiful. How are you . I hope youve had as much fun getting to know me as ive had getting to know you. Meghans middle and High School Years were full of typical teenage fun roller skate partie and plenty of school dances. She even got the opportunity to see a bit of the world here she is, age 15, taking in the sites at her future inlaws house, buckingham palace. Reporter but most of all, it was on the stage in the School Auditorium where her talent began to bloom. She was the star of damn yankees. And she was very good. And i just remember thinking, oh my gosh, this girl has talent. She performed a song from a chorus line, the song, nothing. And i remember standing in the wings kind of watching the performance and thinking, like, wow. You know, it didnt feel like you were watching a high school performance. Reporter but charisse mordeno tran remembers megan for a much braver performance, the moment when megan stepped in to protect her from some bullying seniors. She interrupted what they were saying, and she said, we dont do that here. I was like, oh, my gosh. She stood up to these high schoolers. And and, you know, she doesnt even know who i am. And shes an 8thgrader, and im a 7thgrader. This is someone who is not going to stand for someone whos not being treated fairly or right. I dont even know if she even remembers that this happened, but i do, because it happened to me. And she was the one that came to my rescue. Reporter by graduation day, maria pollia says meghan is determined to make it big. She wanted to be the best that she could be on stage or wherever that career led her. It was not at all frivolous. Oh i want to be a movie star. It was it was a very serious pursuit of the craft of acting. Reporter that pursuit brings megan to prestigious Northwestern University in chicago. At the time she is the first member of her family to attend college. I remember her being very positive she had a very strong persona. Reporter at northwestern meghan joins the kappa kappa gamma sorority. Here she is with her sisters and pursues degrees in theatre and international studies. My lasting memory of megan is her profound sense of self, as she knew who she was, its that perspective, that i suspected would prepare her well for the world outside. Reporter the future looks bright but even her elite education cant prepare her for hollywoods school of hard knocks. This is a ruthless, cruel place. Reporter stay with us. Whstuff happens.

Reporter hidden in the background nurse jill on the legendary soap general hospital. A part so small they have a name for it, an under five. which is a role that is five lines or less. Reporter but when casting director Mark Teschner took a chance on unknown meghan in the summer of 2001. Do you know if khloe has any visitor with her . I have his chart and dont see the notation anywhere. The five lines were enough to launch her career. We read geman and liked her enough which were not easy to get either. Reporter talk about a cinderella story. Soap actress becoming royalty except there was a lot in between first returning to college, finishing her dual degrees in theater and along with an internship at the us embassy in buenos aires described by her half sister samantha in the itv documentary prince harry and meghan truly madly deeply. She went to l. A. And she worked like many working actors do. Reporter translation one cattle call after another wondering will i ever get a part again. Getting a job is a big big bg and not getting a job as any actor will tell you is hearing no a lot. Reporter meghan explained how she made ends meet back then on the aol build series. When i was an auditioning actress to pay the bills i did so much calligraphy, because i could do it in my free time and its actually quite lucrative you are a calligrapher . I used to be yes. He once demonstrated that unusual talent to larry king. Ooh thats beautiful oh do tell. Reporter she would later blog about this time a very unprincess like diary. My 20s were brutal a constant battle with myself, judging my weight, my style, my desire to be as cool as hip as smart as whatever as everyone else. Reporter her self esteem and job prospects also complicated by the nagging question of race. On some auditions they thought she was too white on some they thought she was too black. Markle would later despair about that in elle magazine calling herself the ethnic chameleon who couldnt book a job. Still with those looks you can only be ignored for so long. Whats the first role you auditioned for . Meghan hot girl 1 in a lot like love with ashton kutcher. Did you get it . Yes hi. Hi. Reporter hot girl number one sizzled on to more steamy roles a lingerie wearing maid in csi new york. Why did greg jordan fire you . I dont know. It seemed like nothing i did was good enough. Reporter a fetching fed ex worker in horrible bosses. Youre way too cute. A sultry suitcase girl on deal or no deal. Reporter she did what a lot of beautiful young actresses in los angeles do which is jump from show to show, one episode at a time never really making a huge impact in any one show. But there might never have been any royal connection if not for what eventually happened in the former british dominion north of the border, canada. It was definitely part of the lore in toronto in canada because. Because it was shot there. Reporter toronto star reporter Shinan Govani would come to know Meghan Markle personally thanks to a tv show called suits. Hi. Im rachel zane. Reporter once Meghan Markle got cast as rachel zane. Nothing was the same. Wow youre pretty. I am not interested. She definitely had like a spark and was a fan favorite. Were going to look at privacy and harassment law and see if we can find a combination of cases. She plays a paralegal who goes far beyond the limits of her job and has that sort of glint in her eye that lets you know that this is no simple assistant you know who should be trifled with that shes not someone to underestimate at all. Reporter the role was almost tailor made for her a glamorous and brainy biracial woman. Suits definitely changed Meghan Markles career and then her life. Is it a hit show . I think it has more of a following among millennials. Theyre quite into her and the show reporter the show embraced her looks so much. Her embraces became must see tv. It has been necessary for her to have love scenes shes certainly had quite a few on suits its you know nothing really that shocking if you take it out of the context of who shes marrying. It doesnt matter if she was wearing lingerie or Something Like that she had a freaking job rock on meghan reporter at the one young world summit in dublin she seemed to say shed had enough this season every script seemed to begin with rachel enters wearing a towel and i said nope, not doing it. Reporter all that exposure allowed her to revive dreams of working internationally and volunteered in multiple countries as filmed by world vision going from the slums of rwanda. This clean water source has changed the entire community. Its cool to see. Reporter to a clinic in india. She helped out and raised awareness advocating for womens rights at the United Nations womens conference. Distinguish ladies and gentlemen i am tremendously honored to be a womens advocate for political participation and leadership. Reporter her stature only grew. You can tell when people are committed because when youre not youre standing on your pedestal and this person was not that person, not at all. Doesnt matter what youre doing. I think just any opportunity to help people that have less than you will change how you move in the World Without question. I think everyone should do it. Reporter as she sat on the stage Meghan Markle seemed to have it all, fulfillment, success, a career on the rise, everything except one thing, a soulmeat. Coming up, the husband before harry and the path that led to the royal engagement. One of us. I write them a poem instead and one for each of you too thats actually yours. That, that one. Yeah.

Give joy, get joy at kohls. In 2015 a full year before she would meet her prince charming, Meghan Markle finds herself during a canadian interview playing a lightheaded round of 20 questions. Listen to this one. Prince william or prince harry . I dont know. Harry. Harry . Sure. But before there was harry, there was trevor. The longterm boyfriend meghan married in 2011. She married in a wedding in jamaica that was later described as just one Great Big Party but it was a marriage that ultimately really wasnt destined to last. I want to get married. She landed a job that took her to canada while her husbands career was solidly based in los angeles. Distance and differing priorities really spelled an end to the marriage. Now single in toronto she meets celebrity chef cory. People on the social scene in toronto know cory and that relationship was for a few years but was not the one. Then in the summer of 2016 she jets to london. A mutual friend sets her up on a blind date with a visible bachelor. They had to be so gratified to hear prince harry and Meghan Markle met on a blind date. Yes. Yeah. Well, there are blind dates and there are blind dates. Yes, it was definitely a setup, it was a blind date. It was a blind date for sure. Because im from the states you dont grow up with the same understanding of the royal family. I didnt know much him. Reporter shes received a little sideeyed skepticism for that sound bite after all, meghan must have been the only woman on the planet who didnt know much about this redheaded royal. We have all watched him grow from the funloving boy romping around with his mother to a 12 yearold shattered by grief. Diana was on the cusp of leaving public life. And then to a royal renegade whose public fobiles were so often documented for the world to see. Theres always been two sides to harry. You got the wild child. He was also the harry who was an active member of the military. Reporter it is his commitment to Wounded Warriors which he told us about that steadily changes the publics perception of the prince. At the end of the day youre in a war zone and youre responsible. Prince harry is much more mature. It took him some time but established his role and the core has really been his military life. Reporter s the the more mature harry that meets meghan on the blind date. We met for a drink and very quickly into that we said what are we doing tomorrow . We should meet again. One of their first topics of conversation i think was their social work. Because for each of them, it has been an elevating thing, a thing that they are proud of. Time to build some wells and make things a lot better than what were seeing here. Reporter after two dates prince harry convinces a smitten meghan to join him on an adventure a little further from home. I managed to persuade her to come and join me in botswana. We camped out with each other under the stars, we spent she came and joined me for five days out there, which was absolutely fantastic. Given that i didnt know a lot about him everything that ive learnt about him i learnt through him as opposed having grown up around different news stories, or tabloids or whatever else. Reporter the couple are able to keep their budding romance from preying eyes for nearly six months. Their secret romance is one of the parts i love so much and they were so secretive and so protective of that budding romance that they snuck around for months. Prince harry made several secret visits to be with his girl friend. Reporter but the secret gets out. Royal rumor mill is going crazy. The latest on prince harrys romance. The engagement speculation began immediately like all royal engagements everyone is so excited and longing for it to happen. When you witness them together he looks like the guy who cant believe he got her. She didnt land the prince. He landed Meghan Markle. But the reaction to their new wouldbe american princess is decidedly chilly. The headline from a british tabloid got a strong rebuke from the prince, a sharply worded statement from his pr team saying in part. Meghan markle has been subject to a wave of abusive and harassment. This is not a game. It is her life and his. The statement was unprecedented. It was so strongly worded. So bold. You could feel his passion and his anger. Reporter that statement, the most significant sign yet that she may be the one. When i realized that i know im in love with this girl, i still have to have pretty frank conversations with her to say what youre letting yourself in for, its a big deal. Its not easy for anybody. Reporter by september, mae gunm meghan graces the cover of vanity fair and the couple make their First Official appearance at the invictus games. Harrys signature event for Wounded Warriors. Even meghans mother tags along. When she made her first public appearance she wore a shirt called the husband shirt. Now we know why. Reporter when the big moment finally arrives it is far from the glare of blinding flash bulbs. Standard typical night for us. Cozy night. We were just roasting chicken. Trying to roast the chicken. And it just just an amazing surprise. It was so sweet and natural and very romantic. He got on one knee. Of course. Is this an instant yes from you . Yes. As a matter of fact, i could barely let you finish proposing. I said can you let me say yes now. Reporter their courtship more conventional than his parents who met 13 times before Prince Charles popped the question. This marriage signals a shift for englands church and for its sovereign. This is not the 19yearold Kindergarten Teacher like his mother was. Harry is married an american divorced actress who is three years older than he is. Is there still a rebellious streak to harry . You tell me. It would get you kicked off the throne. Ask edward, viii. Queen elisabeths uncle abdicated the thrown to marry his girlfriend. I love her with all my heart. He would have stayed edward the freakin viii. This week there was nothing but well wishes for the happy couple. I hope theyll be very happy indeed. William and i are thrilled. For me personally there is of course, one note of congratulations that will always be missing. What do you think your mother would have thought of meghan . She would be over the moon jumping up and down, you know, so excited for me but then it is days like today when i really miss having her around and miss being able to share the happy news but im sure shes with us. Shes with us. Jumping up and down somewhere else. Reporter next, the hollywood actress prepares for a new role. Its another world. Shes going to give up a lot of what shes enjoyed about her life.

Grocery outlet bargain market announcer 20 20 continues with american royal. Reporter today day one of official duties and Meghan Markle was all smiles but royal watchers say she should brace herself. Its not just riding in carriages and in castles, waving from balconies. Its having your life subjected to constant press scrutiny. The challenge they face is they have to be in love and also a member of the British Royal family. Her life is going to be really laid out in a way it wasnt before. We feel like anyone who has wanted to marry into the British Royal family has had their eye on the crown, the towers, the wealth, the riches. You really dont get that vibe from meghan. As meghan wrote, i am less interested in Glass Slipper and more interested in breaking the glass ceiling. But others before her have seen their Glass Slippers shatter under the strain. Diana never had a serious boyfriend, barely ever been kissed and now shes going to be the queen of england . Princess diana in a interview with 1996 talked about the pressure. If i tripped up, which i did because i was new at the game, a ton of bricks came down on me. Then came Sara Ferguson the duchess of new yoyork. Why did i not understand what the monarchy is all about . Acknowledgment and approval. What could be better than in front of billions of peoplescrec and clapping. Im sure it went to my head and i sort of lost my way. To avoid the pit falls of the past meghan will be carefully coached. When diana married into the family it was difficult for her and part was because she didnt really have much advice, as much support. Its a unique repetitive set of skills that may at first seem foreign especially for an american. Its another world. Its a medieval court. Theres the precedence of who walks through the door first and how many kisses to give on each cheek. Im sure harry has taught her to to curtsy. That would be funny to witness. The other thing is knowing when to curtsy. Who you dont curtsy to. The table manners. The english hold their fork in one hand and the knife in the other. Americans will cut the food with their knife first and eat it with their fork. Its a mind field. Im sure she will embrace it very, very well because after all, she is an actress. She will be able to learn it like shes learning a part and really it is almost a part in a play. All of this training so that royal engagements like this and this go off without a hitch. Like her future sisterinlaw kate, meghan will too have a Constant Companion on the rope line, not her prince, but her protection officer. Meghan will be given round the clock protection. Thats a interesting experience to be constantly surrounded by and followed everywhere she goes by royal bodyguards. Going to be no walking down the street with a cup of coffee which everybody does in america. Shes giving up a lot but lets not cue the string section too much. Shes in love with a guy with unlimited resources. That tends to not be a bad situation. The new regal role comes with some rewards. Meghan will be able to borrow some of the queens jewelry as kate has done. How about that 2 million tiara . Lets take that out of the vault. Given cars, clothes. There are motion making sure theres not a hair out of place, not a shirt that goes untucked. There will be a new title. Royal watchers say that is at the discretion of the queen. We think she will designate her a duchess but will not be princess meghan because shes not of royal blood. There is the change in address. Kensington palace, where the Princes Group up and kate and william now live. Meghan and harry will make their home only a stones throw away. Its part of the Kensington Palace complex. Its quite small by royal standards. I mean, its got beautiful paintings on the walls and the royal collection, an open fireplace. Meghan has made it very cozy. While the royal family is gaining a new member, meghan is becoming a new citizen. The british will also claim her as their own as is their right but i think what you will see is that every moment in which she dazzles. Every moment in which she comforts someone well be feeling pride on both sides of the pond. Next, setting a style. I think we are riding the very beginning wave of what that markle sparkle is. Still that california girl relaxed but always an effortless quality being from l. A. Stay with us. She could be dancing down a hall, dancing down a hall were turning heads, were turning heads, were turning heads, oh yeah and nothing can stop us now let out your inner child at the lexus december to remember sales event. Lease the 2017 rc turbo for 299 a month for 36 months. Experience amazing at your lexus dealer. man shh you guys, group surprise avo nothing comes before coffee. Enjoy the perfectly balanced flavor of mccafe coffee at home. Woman ok group surprise woman ah what grandpa did we get ya . Hi, were alaska airlines. And we dont just fly lumberjacks to glaciers. We fly all kinds of people all kinds of places. Like App Developers to mexico city. Musically inclined novelists to nashville. And pilates instructors to palm springs. Sure, we love a good glacier. But we also like a little cocoa butter. From the west coast to the world. Alaska airlines. Thats how we fly. Meghan markle is already redefining royal style. The stone pathway of that Kensington Palace garden was really a global runway. Leading her into fashion history and tis tier and hysteria. The winter white coat from the Canadian Company line the label and green dress crashed websites and sold out within minutes. Everything Meghan Markle wears from hereon out will sell out. Both coat and dress reissued with a new name. The meghan. Oh, theres definitely a markle sparkle. If that isnt hashtaged it will be soon. We are riding the beginning wave of what that markle sparkle is. The markle sparkle may be knew but her fashion status is not. Her signature style on the hit tv show suits first got her noticed. Rachel owned the idea of a pencil skirt and great pump. It was iconic to her but she made a paralegal look so stylish. Celebrity stylist joe z is a friend of markles and remembers their first gettogether. Am i revealing something about a future duchess i shouldnt be . She was so nice. When meghan was speaking to you that you were the only person in that room. On yahoo style she defined her personal style. Still that california girl relaxed. I like to look polished and put together but an effortless quality just being from l. A. It looks so comfortable and stylish at the same time. A youthful spirit about that. Its very authentic where there is that laid back girl about her. Jessica mullrone is part of her inner circle. Theyre very good friends and you can see jessicas influence on mae gunmen. So stylish. Ladies meghans style and fashion sense inspired the canadian brand to ask her to design her own collection, all the dresses for under 100. I think people will really enjoy them. I hope. In 2016 royal fan Christine Ross noticed the fashion frenzy about that new girl prince harry was dating and with a friend created meghans mirror in her honor. Anything you have seen her wear in public, in photographs, we have located those items and made them available to people. And those items became a hot ticket, even in the early days of her relationship with prince harry. She would carry a bag or wear a coat and immediately everyone would want to buy it and it would sell out. That is whats called the meghan effect. Some style experts believe her impact could be greater than kates. Meghan is more approachable and has a relatability to the way she dresses. She will bring an injection of sexiness frankly because for all of princess kates attrib e attributes i dont think sexiness gets attributed to kate all that often. Sexiness is the message theyre going for there. That doesnt mean kate will need to step up her game. I dont know that kate and meghan are going who is going to look better today . I think kate and meghan are confident as to who they are that theyre their own people. Meghans style choices break the rules in the royal etiquette handbook. When you look at kates own engagement interview with prince william, she was wearing a sleeve dress where meghan wore sleeveless. Theyre talking about the fact that meghan did her interview bare armed. Heres meghan just suns out, guns out. There she is. She chose that without panty hose. That is a big deal and i think that is a very modern take for someone who is going to be stepping into the royal family. But some royal traditions are hard to avoid. Do i believe shes marry harry and trade those baseball caps in, yes. Shes going to go to town with the fascinators. I cant wait to see it. What might not be so fun for her is saying goodbye to the shorter sexier looks. I think the royal family might expect her to lose those short short dresses because you have got to get in and out of a lot of cars and dont want to flash a huge amount of thigh. Meghan is not the first to make that transition to reallife princess. Shes like our modern day grace kelly. Theyre both american actresses marrying into these storied royal families. Meghan has had multiple dress rehearsals for the special day. You may have seen her in the tv movie when sparks fly or as the bride in this scene on suits. You cant see me in my dress. Come with me for a sneak peek. She gave Hello Magazine a tour when picking that wedding dress. If a girl can dream, this is where you want to begin. This is her princess moment. Absolutely. At her first real lifewedding to trevor engleson. She wore simple chic. Doesnt feel over the top. I feel like thats who meghan is but i think for this particular union were going to see something thats just a tad more fanciful. I think they want an element of fantasy. The fantasy was born with princess dianas fairytale dress, puffed sleeves, tafita and a 25 foot train. Wedding gowns are a reflection in which the time they were made. When we look at princess dianas wedding gown, we wouldnt see that today in 2017. Kates slim tailored Alexander Mcqueen was a sleeker fairytale dress made for a modern millennial princess and for meghan . Stop fantasizing about the strapless gown shes going to wear. Meghan markle has to cover up her shoulders. That is the one thing i can guarantee you. Meghans walk down the aisle will be the biggest catwalk of all. We all know who the prince will be but who will be the lucky designer. I want to put my money on stella mccartney. She is British Royalty and young and fun. I think can make that perfect wedding dress. For meghan. No matter who the designer is next may at Windsor Castle meghan will step out in that dress and step into history. Next, prince harry and meghan meet their adoring fans. avo but you also have a higher risk of heart attack or stroke. Noninsulin victoza® lowers a1c, and now reduces cardiovascular risk.

Today a brandnew chapter in the royal fairytale begins. Prince harry and Meghan Markle embarked on their First Official engagement as a couple. Very quickly she is on the world stage. She was worried the royal family would have confidence in her and her ability to represent them. An event honoring world aids day. Its significant that the first public appearance that meghan and harry make together is to a charity that was incredibly close to princess dianas heart. This work seems like it might be close to meghans heart as well. You can say you have a heart for charity. And im sure that that is something that any number of women on a first date with prince harry would have gone out of their way to say but few people probably would have been able to do what Meghan Markle did which was to say ive been to rwanda and afghanistan and india. She had the credentials to back it up. It will be interesting to see how her rise changes now theres so much more she can do. She started here and she became this amazing person. So inspiring. We can be like her. With that track record of humanitarian work and now with the unlimited resources in terms of attention and money that she has, what could she do . What will she dedicate herself to do . And how will she make the biggest difference she can . That will be fun to watch. For everyone, the world will be watching to see how their story unfolds. And suffice it to say well be watching more of those two as wedding bells get closer. Thats our story for tonight. Im eliz vargas. Thanks for watching. Have a good evening and a great weekend.
