That One Advice Meghan Markle Received From Her On-Screen Father Before Becoming the Duchess of Sussex
Meghan Markle came from a whole other world to the royal premises - a world filled with glitz, glamour, and camera flashes at every turn. The former actress was a key player in the legal drama, Suits, for years, where she forged some solid connections that stuck by her side even as she stepped away from the acting world. Not only did they raise a glass to Markle’s union with Prince Harry, but some also lent an ear and shared pearls of wisdom with the now Duchess of Sussex before she ascended to that title.
One among them was Meghan Markle’s on-screen father, who had some sage advice to offer the former actress before she entered the royal sphere.

Wendell Pierce and Meghan Markle portrayed the reel-life father and daughter in the legal drama Suits - Robert and Rachel Zane. In a recent interview with E! News, the actor shared insights into the advice he gave Meghan Markle as she transitioned from the acting world to becoming a Duchess. Before her engagement to Prince Harry, Pierce cautioned Markle that her “life is going to be a whirlwind” and that she would be in a “bubble”.
Pierce, however, reassured the Duchess that come what may, she will always have her allies, and she can count her on-screen dad among them. The actor also received an invitation to the royal wedding in 2018, but could not attend due to scheduling conflicts. Nevertheless, he and Markle did reunite after she relocated to the United States, crossing paths at "a public function". Earlier this year, the actor also divulged one thing that Markle is allegedly keen to pursue now that she has departed from her royal life.
Wendell Pierce hinted at something that Meghan Markle’s fans have been eagerly anticipating for years - her comeback to familiar grounds.

Following the revival of Suits, there was a clamor from fans for Meghan Markle to make a comeback to acting. In his March interview on Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace?, Wendell Pierce revealed that one thing that bothers him is that Markle “would love to act again” but she has yet to make her return. And not just that, Markle has also been conspicuously absent from all the Suits reunion events, strongly suggesting that her return to the acting world is highly unlikely.
The Duchess, however, is staging her comeback as a lifestyle queen with her new venture, American Riviera Orchard, which has already garnered over 500k followers. While it remains uncertain whether Markle will ever return to the world of lights, camera, and action, she is dedicated to cultivating her brand following her departure from the royal sphere. And with the support of industry friends, such as Wendell Pierce himself, she could truly elevate her brand's marketing efforts.
