Before Meghan Markle was a member of the Royal Family, she was best known for her acting role in Suits, where she played paralegal Rachel Zane.

When Meghan met Prince Harry and married into the Royal Family - becoming the Duchess of Sussex - many of her OG fans wondered whether she would ever make a return to her previous career.

Well, Meghan has previously spoken about this, giving a very clear response to the question of whether she'll ever go back to acting.

In an interview with Vanity Fair back in 2022, Meghan explained she didn't ever think she'd return to the industry after she left in 2018.

However, she also acknowledged that the 'entire culture' has changed.

She was also asked directly if she could ever see herself being a part of that industry again, which she gave a pretty definitive response to.

"I left Suits right after the 100th episode, in 2018," she explained.

"I didn't think I'd ever be in the entertainment industry again. But the entire culture has changed; streamers have changed things. The ability to create zeitgeist moments like we had in the '90s — where everyone would tune in at the same time for a show or gather for one moment? — that doesn't happen anymore."

She continued: "When I was doing Suits, that character, Rachel Zane, was in your living room with you while you were in your pajamas eating Chinese takeout. That's how connected the experience felt then.

"But to create a cultural moment or conversation requires something different today. Podcasting has been really interesting in that way.

"It might be one of the only remaining forums where people are alone to listen. Where else do you have that opportunity?"

When asked if she would go back to acting, she said: "No. I'm done. I guess never say never, but my intention is to absolutely not."

Recently, Netflix's chief content officer explained that Meghan and Harry have a few things in the pipeline that are currently 'in development'.

Speaking at an event in Hollywood, Bela Bajaria said: "Oh, what are they working on? They have a couple of unscripted things they're working on with Brandon.

"And they actually have, like, a bunch of development, they have a movie in development, a (scripted) series that they're working on. So all very early development, with a movie, a TV show and a couple of unscripted shows. But yeah, the movie's great."
