One of the oldest friendships of Meghan Markle has finally come out of the woodwork

Meghan Markle’s ‘Suits’ BFF Reflects on Their First Run-in and the Friendship That Blossomed Thereafter

Suits, the ever-popular legal drama, officially wrapped up its successful run in
2019. But it left behind a lasting camaraderie among its cast members. Meghan
Markle [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/meghan-markle] and Prince Harry
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/prince-harry/]‘s royal wedding was a grand
spectacle that laid bare the Duchess’s inner circle, including the employees at
Pearson Hardman — or Pearson Specter Litt. Although Markle counts the entire
cast as friends, there is one among them who has been by her side since long
before she even got her start in Aaron Korsh’s series.

Not only has she stood up for Meghan Markle in the face of bullying allegations
but has been a rock for her during the toughest times.


THE DAWN OF MEGHAN MARKLE’S 17-YEAR-LONG FRIENDSHIP

The whole story about Meghan Markle’s journey bonding with her Suits BFF and
co-star was spilled on The Kelly Clarkson show just a few hours ago. The friend
in question here is Abigail Spencer, who played Dana Scott in the fictional New
York City corporate law firm. On a February 26th episode of The Kelly Clarkson
Show, Spencer shared that she met Markle in 2007 during a pilot audition for NBC
and immediately felt a “connection“. Their bond further “deepened” and
“developed” while working in the TV series Suits.

Fans got the full picture of their bond in 2021 when Spencer poured her heart
out in an Instagram caption and wrote a lengthy post for Markle. From calling
her “an on-call friend” to a “safe harbor” in front of whom she “can fall
apart“, Spencer really showed her genuine regard for the former actress.
Nonetheless, Suits would always be an important chapter in this friendship, and
Spencer, last month, shared her “layered” opinions about why the show is still
so popular, even after nearly half a decade of its end.

The unexpected comeback of Suits left everyone, including Meghan Markle,
surprised. Yet, Spencer already had an inkling of what caused the show’s
revival.


ABIGAIL SPENCER CREDITED MEGHAN MARKLE FOR SUITS’ RESURGENCE

Last month, Abigail Spencer made a special appearance on SiriusXM’s The Jess
Cagle Show, where she attributed Suits‘ resurgence in streaming numbers to
Meghan Markle’s charisma. She also suggested that the Sussexes’ Netflix
docuseries might have contributed to the renewed interest, given the shared
streaming platform. As per Spencer, Netflix strategically promoted the
nine-season show

during last year’s writers and actors strike.

Markle, however, offered a differing view at Variety’s Power of Women Event,
crediting Suits‘ revival to its binge-worthy nature. This resurgence of the show
stirred speculation about Markle’s potential comeback as an actress.
Nonetheless, that prospect was dashed by Suits co-star, Rachael Harris, as she
confirmed “no one from the previous cast is going to be in Suits LA” to Mirror.
Although fans may not see Spencer and Markle reunite on screen, their enduring
friendship will hopefully endure for decades to come.

One of the oldest friendships of Meghan Markle has finally come out of the woodwork, showing its roots and how it flourished over time.

Hriddhi Maitra is a Hollywood News writer at Netflix Junkie. She skillfully breaks down nuances in stories on polarizing figures Kanye West and Meghan Markle. A Markle moment she covered was when the Duchess faced backlash for wearing Princess Diana’s Cartier watch. Hriddhi connected it to the missing ring controversy with her research skills. When not analyzing news, you will find her lost in the musical world or reviewing the latest movie and series releases on her social media.
