How Meghan Markle Is Like Princess Diana
6 Ways Meghan Markle's Life Has Mirrored Princess Diana's
1
Meghan's parents have both made headlines (for very different reasons), but Thomas Markle and Doria Ragland have been divorced since Meghan was six years old. Diana was only a year old, age seven, when her parents, John Spencer (then Viscount Althorp) and Frances Spencer, Lady Althorp, divorced. Diana and Meghan both have paternal half-siblings, although Meghan's half-siblings came from her father's previous relationship, while Diana's came from her father's remarriage to Raine McCorquodale (pictured together in 1980).
