This time around, before taking the helm with the glittering gold in New York City, Meghan Markle opted for an all-black outfit for the AHA Santa Barbara visit. The Duchess kept it casual, yet elegant, in her ensemble. However, fans have got some big-time Déjà vu as they were reminded of one of their favorite on-screen characters by Meghan Markle’s outfit. 

It was none other than Markle’s breakthrough characters on the screen from Suits. The American para legal series had the Duchess as the center star around whom the entire show revolved.
