Meghan Markle's ex's unexpected connection to the Real Housewives of New York
Meghan Markle's ex-husband Trevor Engelson is said to have a connection to a former cast member from the Real Housewives of New York (RHONY).
The former actor, 42, and producer Trevor, 46, were in a relationship for more than half a decade. They got married back in 2011 but divorced two years later, after having been together for around six years prior to their marriage.
Trevor - who's the CEO of the production company Underground - has since married nutritionist Tracey Kurland. And he was once linked to a high-profile reality TV star who he was said to be working with on a TV project.

News at the time. She teased that she met him as "a romantic interest."

The entrepreneur - best known for having been a cast member on Bravo's RHONY - said they met in Chicago and were "supposed to go out". She added in the interview: "I ended up seeing him one time and he'd been texting me."
She said he had told her that he'd been married but was by then divorced. Bethenny said he had been married to Meghan, whom she referred to as having been from the show Suits. She teased that months later she discovered that Trevor's ex, Meghan, was going to marry Prince Harry.

She later clarified that she didn't date Trevor, pictured with his wife Tracey Kurland (WireImage)Bethenny teased that she was working on a project with Trevor at the time of the interview. She shared: "He pitched me a TV show idea to produce together about a bunch of businesswomen, which I think we are going to do."
She suggested that their relationship wasn't romantic, saying: "We bypassed the romantics and went into the business." Bethenny went on to add that there's "something salacious" about working on a TV project with Meghan's ex.
It doesn't appear that the project ended up being developed by Trevor - who's produced films like Remember Me (2010) and Incarnate (2016) - and Bethenny. It's unclear if they are continuing to work together on such a project.
Bethenny later clarified their connection in a post on social media around the time of the radio interview, amid her comments being interpreted as her and Trevor having once dated. She wrote in a tweet in 2018: "Never dated. Met."
She added: "But I guess we're not going to let the truth get in the way of a good story." Bethenny seemingly teased: "While we're at it, I was engaged to one of the Hemsworth brothers but he wasn't good looking enough for me."
Her comments were made whilst she was a cast member on RHONY, with the interview having come just days after the eighth season premiered. She appeared on the show from 2008 to 2010, before returning from 2015 to 2019.
