9	Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (born Rachel Meghan Markle on 4 August 1981 in UsefulNotes/LosAngeles, UsefulNotes/{{California}}) is a member of UsefulNotes/TheBritishRoyalFamily. Formerly an American actress best known for her role as Rachel Zane on ''Series/{{Suits}}'', she married Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, on 19 May 2018, subsequently retiring from acting. She is from UsefulNotes/{{California}} and the first American to become a member of UsefulNotes/TheBritishRoyalFamily, as well as possibly being the first biracial member and [[RagsToRoyalty one of the first non-titled members to marry someone in the direct line of succession]].

11	From a young age, Meghan experienced show business, but not as part of it; she was raised in Hollywood, and at age 11 successfully campaigned to have what she viewed as a sexist television commercial cut from syndication. She hasn't slowed down since, taking on charity work in human rights-related causes all throughout her career and making it clear that she'll be using her new title to do even more for those causes.

13	In January 2020, Meghan and her husband Harry issued a statement saying they would be "stepping back" from being senior royals and living in North America part-time, but expressing a wish to represent the Queen part-time while earning money and doing work privately; the public announcement caught the Palace by surprise. After several days, it was announced that they would no longer be working members of the Royal Family or use their "Royal Highness" prefixes for any commercial purpose, while continuing with a handful of their personal patronages. In March 2021, it was announced that they would not be returning to royal duties.

15	Meghan and Harry have resided in Montecito, California since 2020.
