Have you wondered where Princess Meghan Markle gets her beauty from – well, it’s clearly from her mother – Doria Loyce Ragland.
Media Take Out managed to locate an old picture of a teenage Meghan, standing next to her mom, who was in her early 40s at the time.
And Doria was stunningly gorgeous. Look:
Meghan’s mom was a social worker, and former makeup artist and yoga instructor.
Doria, who is originally from Cleveland, married lighting director Thomas Markle Sr. on December 23, 1979, at Hollywood’s Paramahansa Yogananda Self-Realization Fellowship Temple. Their daughter, Meghan, was born in 1981. The couple separated when their daughter was two years old, and they divorced in 1987.
Both parents contributed to raising Meghan until, at the age of 6, she began living with Thomas Markle full-time while Doria pursued a career in Hollywood.
Doria now lives in View Park–Windsor Hills, California, in a house inherited from her father in 2011.
She has accompanied Meghan to public events and attended her 2018 wedding to Prince Harry in Berkshire. Doria became a grandmother on May 6, 2019. She flew to the United Kingdom to see her grandson, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, and his parents.
In July, she attended Mountbatten-Windsor’s christening at the private chapel at Windsor Castle. Her granddaughter, Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor, was born on June 4, 2021, in Santa Barbara, California.
