In a surprising twist of events, it appears that Meghan Markle has been left out in the cold by the creators of the new spin-off series, Suits LA.
Fans of the original show are buzzing with excitement as they learn which familiar faces will be making a comeback, and it seems Markle is not among them.
So, what’s the scoop?
Let’s dive into the latest drama surrounding the former actress and her ties to the beloved legal drama.
Gabriel Macht, who famously portrayed the suave Harvey Specter in Suits, is set to return for a guest appearance in the upcoming spin-off.
His involvement has stirred up quite a buzz, especially since he had remained tight-lipped about any potential return until now.
Macht’s character will share a backstory with the new lead, Ted Black, played by Stephen Amell, as both characters have pasts as prosecutors in New York.
However, it’s important to note that Macht’s role in Suits LA will only be temporary, not a full-time comeback.
This news raises eyebrows, particularly when considering Markle’s previous ties to the show.
Just a few months ago, rumors circulated that she was keen on reuniting with her former co-stars for her podcast on Lemonada, but it seems those attempts fell flat.
Allegedly, she reached out to several Suits actors for interviews, only to be met with silence or outright refusals.
Could it be that her past actions have led to this chilly reception from her old colleagues?
An insider revealed that some cast members felt insulted by Markle’s requests, suggesting that she should show more loyalty to her roots.
It’s a stark contrast to the camaraderie that once existed among the Suits cast.
The source didn’t specify which actors were contacted, but one can speculate it included notable names like Patrick J. Adams and Gina Torres, who remain prominent figures in the series’ legacy.
Interestingly, Markle’s attempts to reconnect appear to stem from a desperate need for guests on her podcast.
With reports indicating that she has struggled to secure high-profile interviewees, her outreach to the Suits cast seems to reflect a shift in her priorities.
Once eager to distance herself from the show, she now seems to be trying to rekindle those connections, albeit with little success.
The situation becomes even more intriguing when considering Markle’s history with the Suits franchise.
She famously left the show to marry Prince Harry and step into royal life, abandoning her acting career.
Now, with her royal status in flux and her media ventures facing challenges, the question arises: is she regretting her decision to leave the Suits family behind?
Adding to the drama, earlier this year, Angela Levin, a royal commentator, hinted that Markle had turned down an offer to participate in Suits LA due to disagreements over production credits for her company, Archewell.
This conflict reportedly halted any preliminary discussions regarding her involvement, leaving fans to wonder what could have been.
As the dust settles on this unfolding saga, it’s clear that Markle’s relationship with her former castmates is strained.
The recent reunion of the Suits cast at the Golden Globes, where they openly expressed their lack of communication with her, paints a vivid picture of the divide.
Gina Torres’s remark about not having Markle’s contact information speaks volumes about the current state of their friendship.
With Macht’s return to Suits LA, the spotlight shines brightly on the show’s legacy, while Markle remains on the sidelines.
The irony is palpable; once a central character in a popular series, she now finds herself outside looking in.
It begs the question: will she ever find her way back to the world of Suits, or has that chapter closed for good?
As fans eagerly await the premiere of Suits LA, it’s hard not to speculate about Markle’s next move.
Will she continue to pursue connections with her former colleagues, or will she forge ahead with her own projects, leaving the past behind?
Only time will tell how this story unfolds, but one thing is certain: the drama surrounding Meghan Markle and Suits is far from over.
