There have been rumours aplenty that Meghan Markle is returning to the world of acting after becoming one of the most-watched TV stars this summer after Suits shot back into the most-watched category on Netflix. Viewing figures have revealed her old legal drama Suits has been shattering download records as the number-one show for the third consecutive week.
Meghan appeared in 108 episodes of Suits before quitting in 2017 to marry Prince Harry. Since quitting her position as a senior Royals, Meghan has delved into the world of podcasting and charity work and it appeared that acting was firmly in her past.
When Meghan signed as a WME client in April, a company spokesperson said: “Acting will not be an area of focus. Meghan Markle will not be making a return in front of the camera and will not resume her career as an actress.”
But it appears that this may no longer be the case as a senior studio executive told the Sunday Express: “All that has changed on a dime with her second coming on Suits. The Netflix figures are the talk of Hollywood and, with respect to the rest of her co-stars, Meghan is, without doubt, the driving force behind that.”
“Love her or hate her, people can’t get enough of her and her advisers at WME are fully aware she can now command A-List-sized salaries for any film or TV projects in which she chooses to perform.”
“She might not want to step back on camera with two young children as well as a full workload with her and Harry’s Archewell production company. But can they afford for her to turn down what has become a golden opportunity?”
“Her advisers are telling her that she has never been in a better position to cash-in on her fame with new on-camera projects given the incredible demand from fans to see her old show Suits.”
Rumours about Meghan’s acting return comes as she has been solo for the last week as husband Prince Harry has been travelling Asia. He headed to Japan for the ISPS Sports Values Summit-Special Edition on Wednesday.
He then visited Singapore on the solo trip, having taken part in his charity Sentebale’s annual Polo Cup on Saturday afternoon. But he was rushing home to Meghan and the kids this weekend after missing them “very much”.
