Meghan Markle, the former actress-turned-Duchess of Sussex, has shared her thoughts on the upcoming ‘Suits’ spinoff, ‘Suits L.A.’, offering fans a nostalgic reflection on her time on the original series. The 43-year-old, best known for her role as Rachel Zane in the hit legal drama from 2011 to 2017, expressed her excitement about the revival in a recent interview with PEOPLE magazine.
“I love that it gets a new breath of fresh air,” Meghan said, acknowledging the lasting impact of the show. She went on to describe ‘Suits’ as a “time capsule” in her life, revealing that she has held onto one of her iconic costumes from the series. “I still have the pencil skirt from the first episode! That’s the one thing I kept.”
With ‘Suits L.A.’ set to bring new life to the beloved legal drama, speculation has been rampant about whether original cast members will make an appearance. Show creator Aaron Korsh addressed the possibility of Meghan’s return, making it clear that she would be welcomed back with open arms.
“So, look, to me, we have thought about whether it be Meghan or any of the other cast members coming on and playing themselves as an actor,” Korsh explained. “I think for me that’s a little… My brain blows up at the thought of that. So I think it blows up the world too much. Obviously, if Meghan wants to come back under any circumstances, Meghan can come back.”
The upcoming series, ‘Suits L.A.’, will feature Stephen Amell in the lead role as Ted Black, a former New York prosecutor who has transitioned into representing some of the most powerful clients in Los Angeles. While no original cast members have been confirmed to return, the door remains open for potential cameos.
Meanwhile, Patrick J. Adams, who played Meghan’s on-screen love interest Mike Ross, revealed that the Duchess is open to making an appearance on ‘Sidebar: A Suits Watch Podcast,’ further fueling nostalgia among fans. Whether she chooses to step back into the world of ‘Suits’ remains to be seen, but Meghan’s fondness for the show and its impact on her career is undeniable.
