In many children's stories， a girl meets a prince and falls in love． They get married and live 'happily ever after'．
As a child， Meghan Markle may never have imagined marrying a prince． But that is exactly what happened on May 19th!
Who is this young lady who just married into Britain's royal family（王室）？
Meghan Markle was born in Los Angeles， California， in 1981． Her mother， Doria， was a doctor， and her father， Tom， was a television lighting director． For 10years after school each day， young Meghan spent time at the studio where her father worked． This experience allowed her to become very comfortable with the acting business． For that reason， she knew she wanted to become an actress from a very early age．
As a child， she felt strongly about something else， too： People should be treated equally． This passion（热情）to help others is still a big part of her life today．
Her acting career began in 2002when she made her first appearance on TV． Other small parts on TV and in a few films followed． Then finally in 2011， Markle got her big break． She won a lead role in the popular TV series Suits．
