Windsor Castle staff have been instructed to watch ‘Suits’ to get to know who some of Meghan Markle’s guests will be at her wedding to Prince Harry.
Lay Stewards at St George’s Chapel, where the couple will tie the knot in May, have been encouraged to tune into the Netflix drama – in which the 36-year-old star plays senior paralegal Rachel Zane – to learn the faces of some of her co-stars before the big day.
Hugo Vickers, Captain of the Lay Stewards, told the Daily Mail newspaper: "I’ve told the Stewards to get Netflix and watch ‘Suits’, so they know who everyone is at the wedding."
One of the US legal drama’s stars who is likely to be invited is Patrick J. Adams, who plays Meghan’s on-screen love interest Mike Ross in the show.
Following news of Meghan and Harry’s engagement, Patrick – who is married to fellow actress Troian Bellisario – joked she had left him.
Quoting a tweet from Kensington Palace on Twitter, the 36-year-old actor said: "She said she was just going out to get some milk… (sic)"
Meghan – who has already served as a UN Ambassador – has appeared in all seven seasons of ‘Suits’ since it began in June 2011, but she has now retired from acting after getting engaged to Harry, 33, and will focus on charity work alongside her husband-to-be.
She said: "I think what’s been so exciting [transitioning] out of my career and into, as you said, the causes I can focus even more energy on, very early out of the gate, [is that you] have a voice that people listen to, a lot of responsibility.
"I see it is a new change, a new chapter.
"I’ve been working on my show seven years, we were so fortunate to have that longevity, and I feel like I checked that box and am very proud of the work I’ve done there."
