Meghan Markle Reaches Out to Former Co-Star Amid Career Struggles
In an unexpected twist, Meghan Markle has reportedly contacted her former “Suits” co-star Patrick J. Adams, not just for a casual catch-up, but seemingly to pitch in on his new podcast project.
According to People Magazine, Adams, who famously portrayed Mike Ross on the hit legal drama, revealed that Markle reached out after years of lost contact.
She sent him a text expressing her excitement about his latest venture and offered her assistance.
The duo shared a significant connection on “Suits,” where Markle played the role of paralegal Rachel Zane, and their on-screen chemistry was undeniable.
Since the series concluded, Markle's life has taken a dramatic turn.
After marrying into the British royal family, she traded her Hollywood career for a royal title, leading to a life that many would envy.
Yet, as her Hollywood star dims, it seems she's looking to reconnect with her roots.
When asked about their current relationship, Adams noted that they had drifted apart due to their vastly different lifestyles.
However, with “Suits” experiencing a renaissance on Netflix, Adams and fellow cast member Sarah Rafferty decided to launch a rewatch podcast titled “Sidebar.”
It appears Markle couldn't resist reaching out once she caught wind of this resurgence.
Adams shared that Markle sent him a heartfelt message, expressing her happiness for his success and inquiring how she could help.
He seemed genuinely touched by her outreach, appreciating the gesture after so many years apart.
Yet, the timing of Markle's renewed interest in “Suits” has raised eyebrows among fans and commentators alike.
Markle's post-royal career has faced its share of turbulence.
Her projects with Netflix and Spotify have struggled to make a mark, leading to speculation about her current standing in the industry.
Recently, her podcast archetypes was dropped by Spotify, reportedly due to poor reviews and low engagement numbers.
Additionally, her latest business endeavor, American Riviera Orchards, encountered a setback when the US Patent Office rejected a trademark application.
As Markle remains tight-lipped about new projects, some wonder if she is grappling to find her footing outside the royal spotlight.
Given the renewed interest in “Suits,” sparked by its record-breaking performance on Netflix this summer, it's not surprising that Markle might want to reconnect with her former colleagues.
Her absence from recent cast reunions, including the Golden Globes where her co-stars presented together, has only fueled speculation.
Gabriel Macht and Gina Torres have mentioned that Markle doesn't participate in their group chats, indicating a significant distance since her marriage to Prince Harry.
For someone who once held the title of Duchess, Meghan's current moves appear to be a curious shift.
Some may interpret her outreach as a fall from grace, as she seeks to return to the very world she left behind.
Her departure from “Suits” in 2018 marked what many believed would be the start of an illustrious new chapter, yet recent setbacks suggest otherwise.
Now, as Markle inches back towards her past connections, the question remains: Is she genuinely seeking to revive old friendships, or is this a strategic attempt to regain relevance?
With few new ventures on the horizon and previous endeavors faltering, her sudden interest in “Suits” seems almost too convenient.
Perhaps she hopes that a touch of her former co-star's success will shine on her as well.
