The Duchess of Sussex's old TV show Suits has made a cheeky quip about her new role as a royal. Meghan shot to fame as lawyer Rachel Zane in the hit US legal drama, starring from its launch in 2011 until her final episode in 2018. Rachel's on-screen husband Mike Ross, played by Patrick J Adams, also left, but returned for an episode of the new series and was asked how she's doing. "If I told you how good, you probably wouldn't believe me," he replied. The TV show's official Twitter account continued the gag by tweeting: "Turns out Rachel is doing REALLY well."
