Meghan Markle’s ex-husband Trevor Engelson has celebrated his beautiful baby daughter’s first birthday.

He took to Instagram to mark the joyful occasion, sharing a series of adorable photos of his daughter, Ford Grace Engelson, whom he shares with wife Tracey, to his Stories.

“Happy 1st bday baby Ford Grace,” the film producer captioned a photo of him dunking his grinning baby girl in the shallow end of a pool.

Another photo showed him holding the tot’s hands as she took a few steps across the family’s grassy lawn, a dog scampering through the photo in the background.

The third image Trevor posted was a close-up of little Grace wearing a huge smile and sticking her tongue out at the side of a kiddie pool.

The sweet celebration comes just two months after it was revealed Trevor and Tracey are expecting their second child together.

The couple shared a family snap with Grace in June to announce the pregnancy, Trevor writing: “This baby thing has been good so far… let’s do it again… coming this fall!”

Prior to his relationship with Tracey, Trevor was married to Meghan Markle from 2011 until 2013, during her days as an actress.

The pair originally met in the early 2000s and started dating around 2004, spending six years together before tying the knot in a beach-side ceremony in Jamaica.

Sadly, the couple didn’t last, with reports that Meghan’s rise to fame and time spent in Toronto filming TV drama Suits contributed to their split.

“It put a strain on the relationship,” a friend told The Daily Mail.

“Trevor was in LA making movies, Meghan was in another country five hours’ flight away and it simply took its toll.”

Trevor and Meghan quietly went their separate ways in 2013 but seemed to remain amicable as they both found new romances.

When Meghan and Prince Harry went public with their relationship in 2017, many media outlets turned to Trevor for intimate details about his ex.

However, the Hollywood film producer has remained tight-lipped about his royal ex, choosing to keep their private past, well, private.

While he celebrates his daughter’s first birthday, Meghan and Harry are enjoying the first months with their own newborn daughter.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed daughter Lilibet ‘Lili’ Diana in June this year, rounding out their little family of four with son Archie.

Harry and Meghan stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and relocated to California, USA, where they now live with their two children.
