Before her wedding to Prince Harry and becoming the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle was known for being an American film star. She is best recognized for portraying the role of Rachel Zane in the hit drama, Suits. The royals do not do films or television. Thus, Meghan also left her film career before taking the plunge with Prince Harry at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle.

However, the Suits alum, along with her husband and children, left London to set up a life in California. Harry and Meghan are no longer working royals and they have also been stripped of their His Royal Highness and Her Royal Highness titles. As the Sussexes are no longer bound to the royal protocols, people are hoping to see the Duchess back on the silver screen. But will she come back?
