Back on Set: Meghan Markle Returns to Acting
The Duchess of Sussex, 44, has been spotted filming a new comedy titled Close Personal Friends in California. Meghan Markle stars as herself alongside Lily Collins, Brie Larson, Jack Quaid—son of Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid—and British actor Henry Golding.
On Wednesday, Meghan was seen on set in Los Angeles wearing a relaxed white and navy pinstripe shirt matched with a white linen maxi skirt. She completed her look with brown sandals and sunglasses suitable for the warm Pasadena weather.
Her accessories included the Cartier love bracelets, valued at £5,850, and Princess Diana’s Cartier watch. Smiling and waving to crew members, she appeared happy and at ease during filming.
The actress, known for her role as Rachel Zane in Suits (2011–2018), returned to acting eight years after leaving the legal drama to marry Prince Harry and step into public life as a royal. On set, Meghan was photographed getting into a luxurious Range Rover, heading to a large Pasadena estate where scenes by the pool were being shot for the Amazon MGM Studios project.
“Looking every inch the Hollywood star, a giddy Meghan Markle has been photographed on set in California as she shoots a new movie where she plays herself.”
