You’ll never see Meghan Markle like this again
Update: Suits is no longer on Showmax. Find your next binge in the full series catalogue here.
Meghan Markle, who plays Rachel Zane in legal drama Suits (Seasons 1 to 6 are on Showmax), is tying the royal knot with none other than Prince Henry Charles Albert David himself! Or Prince Harry for short.
The LA-born actress will now become a real-life princess, or even become known as the Duchess of Sussex. How fancy. The couple will appear on national TV in the UK for the first time this evening to discuss their engagement. The Queen has given her blessing and the couple shall be married on 19 May, 2018. Congrats to them both!
