It is Simon Rex, an American actor who once worked with Meghan Markle on the TV series CUTS in 2005. He admitted that the British media paid him a lot of money to pretend to be Meghan's boyfriend.

"Nothing happened at all. We never even kissed. Actually, we only went out together once and it wasn't a date. She (Meghan) is just someone I met on a TV show and we just had lunch together. That's as far as it goes," said Simon in the Hollywood Raw podcast.

2. Offer of Rp 1.1 Billion

Furthermore, Simon also revealed the amount he received from the British media for making that false confession. It is mentioned that this SCARY MOVIE 5 star received an offer of up to US$70,000 (around Rp 1.1 billion).

This hoax news spread in the British media when Prince Harry announced his engagement to Meghan Markle. Simon's name was mentioned as one of the men in the line of the former Duchess of Sussex. What do you think about this?
