Gina Torres Takes a Dig at Meghan Markle During 2024 Golden Globes
Gina Torres, known for her role as Jessica Pearson in the hit TV show Suits, made headlines at the 2024 Golden Globes when she revealed that Meghan Markle is no longer in touch with her former Suits cast members.
In an interview with Variety on the red carpet, Torres disclosed that there is no texting group chat with the rest of the cast, contrary to what fans may have assumed.
When asked about which member of the Suits cast keeps in touch with Meghan, Torres replied, “We don't have a number.
We just don't.
She'll see.
She'll watch.
She'll be happy that we're here.”
It seems that the connection between Meghan and her former co-stars has faded over time.
However, the Golden Globe Awards provided an opportunity for a mini Suits reunion, with Gina Torres, Patrick J Adams, Gabriel Macht, and Sarah Rafferty all presenting awards at the prestigious event.
These actors were also guests at Meghan's wedding, although they did not attend the reception.
Interestingly, rumors have circulated that Meghan harbors animosity towards Gina Torres.
Perhaps this stems from the fact that Torres embodies everything Meghan aspires to be – successful, talented, and a woman of color.
Additionally, Torres possesses a beautiful singing voice, speaks fluent Spanish, and is a trained dancer, qualities that Meghan may envy.
In a previous interview, Gina Torres jokingly pretended to be unaware of Meghan's royal status.
When informed by People TV host Jeremy Parsons that Meghan is now the Duchess of Sussex, Torres responded with feigned surprise, saying, “I'm sorry, what, really?
I've been a little busy.
I have heard rumors.”
Despite the playful banter, Torres expressed her support for Meghan and her new role as a mother, stating that it would be a dream come true for her.
Reflecting on why she and Meghan are no longer in touch, Gina Torres explained to Glamour that there is no specific reason for their lack of communication.
As an actor, Torres has worked with countless individuals throughout her career and cannot maintain contact with everyone.
She emphasized that the public only sees the characters portrayed on TV, but behind the scenes, there are numerous people involved in making a show successful.
Consequently, it is impossible to bring all those connections along when embarking on new ventures.
Aside from her role in Suits, Gina Torres has made a name for herself in the entertainment industry.
She starred as Zoe Washburn in the science fiction series Firefly and its film sequel, Serenity, in the early 2000s.
Additionally, she has appeared in notable productions such as The Matrix Reloaded, The Matrix Revolutions, Xena: Warrior Princess, Gossip Girl, The Vampire Diaries, Hannibal, Westworld, and The Shield.
While Gina Torres and Meghan Markle may have drifted apart, Torres continues to cheer Meghan on from afar.
Despite the lack of contact, Torres maintains a positive outlook and acknowledges the realities of an actor's life, where connections come and go.
As both actresses pursue their respective careers, their paths may cross again in the future, but for now, their friendship remains a thing of the past.
