Man-Eater Meghan! All The Brits Markle Chased Before Catching Prince Harry
Jun. 12 2019, Updated 12:24 p.m. ET
Man-Eater Meghan Markle targeted a string of British celebs before she snagged Prince Harry!
Former model and TV presenter Lizzie Cundy revealed Meghan spilled her plan to land a famous guy when the two were introduced at a showbiz event in London in 2013.
“She said that she could only be in Suits for so long and would feel at home in London,” recalled Lizzie, 49.
“She wanted to find a British boyfriend. I asked if she wanted someone famous, she said: ‘Yeah, why not!’ ”
And RadarOnline.com can reveal the hunks who topped Meghan’s “to do” list were the cream of the British crop!
Soccer stud Ashley Cole caught Meghan’s eye when she saw his picture on Lizzie’s phone — and started flirting with him on Twitter!
The sports star, who was banking $130,000 a week at the time, responded by bombarding Meghan with messages.
But when Meghan learned Ashley had been dogged by rumors that he’d cheated on his ex-wife, pop singer Cheryl, she said: “I think I’ll leave it.”
The future Duchess of Sussex also reportedly swapped online messages with U.K. “X Factor” winner Matt Cardle, who’s battled a serious booze and drug addiction, and begged to meet him.
The two clicked in 2015 after she saw Matt perform in a London musical, but then Matt met his girlfriend — who he credits for helping him get sober.
“Matt ended up ghosting Meghan,” said a source.
“It felt like there could have been a connection, but the timing was wrong. He didn’t reply to her last message.”
Meghan also secretly messaged singer and actor Max George of the former boy band The Wanted.
Although he’s denied it, a source said: “Max was one of the biggest stars in music back then and had women reaching out to him all the time. He didn’t remember much about it until Meghan’s relationship with Harry.”
British model Oliver Cheshire also had to fend off Meghan, sources revealed.
Her flirting was “blatant” when the two walked the red carpet at the Global Gift Foundation gala in London in November 2013.
