Meghan Markle and Trevor Engelson lived in this Los Angeles house before getting divorced in 2013.

Before Kensington Palace and Frogmore Cottage and declaring a pursuit of financial independence, Meghan Markle already lived like a queen.

The Duchess of Sussex lived in a 2,262 square-foot Los Angeles home with her then-husband, Trevor Engelson, when she wasn't filming "Suits" in the early 2010s.

Now, the property is back on the market for $1.75 million. The asking price has seen a small price cut; it was initially listed this past summer at $1.8 million.
