Before Meghan Markle met Prince Harry, she was with her then-chef boyfriend, Cory Vitiello. They were together for two years. But after a couple of months since their split, she started dating the Duke of Sussex. Did she cheat on Cory to be with Harry?
In a discussion on Quora, royal fans weigh in on the emerging cheating issue. Dan Weinberg explained that the Sussexes had been together for two years before they tied the knot. So if Meghan Markle dumped anyone, it was believed to be a long time ago.
Jade Worthington added that it seemed unlikely that Meghan Markle would dump Cory Vitiello for Prince Harry. The former actress revealed that she met her now-husband on a blind date. If the Suits star wanted to avoid any issue and was still with her ex-boyfriend, she wouldn't go on a blind date with anyone. Hence, no cheating happened.
In addition, Ambika Shetty Khan accused Meghan Markle of cheating on the celebrity chef with Prince Harry. She was allegedly a two-timer as she wanted to marry a rich and famous European man for "power, position, connections, money, and fame."
Claire Chase, on the other hand, noticed how Vanity Fair edited the date when Meghan Markle and Prince Harry started dating. There was an editor note that cleared that they met in July 2016, although there was a photo of Meghan and Cory Vitiello looked happy together in May of the same year.
Is her relationship with Prince Harry a rebound? Royal expert Louise Berwick claimed that the Sussexes' romance started as a "royal rebound." He said that at the time she met the prince, she just broke up with Cory Vitiello.
In an interview in 2016, Meghan Markle even opened up how her heart was broken because of the split. "If you are asking my girlfriends the best way to get over one guy is to get on another," she said. "But my mum says when your heart breaks; it just opens up for more love." It remained to be a big mystery until today as to why Meghan Markle and Cory Vitiello broke up.
She then met Prince Harry in 2016. From there, the rest was history. Their relationship quickly bloomed. Prince Harry then popped the question, they got engaged, and tied the knot in 2018.
They are now blessed with a kid, Archie Harrison. Evidently, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's relationship is now stronger than ever despite the rumors and criticisms.
