Following her 2017. engagement to Prince Harry, Meghan Markle announced that she'd left Suits, the legal drama on which she starred for seven seasons, because she was ready to begin a life of service as the Duchess of Sussex. "Now it's time to work with [Harry] as a team," she said.
She meant it and five years later, after she and Harry shocked the world by leaving Britain and their royal roles to start another new chapter in California running their philanthropic foundation, Meghan told Variety her intention was "to absolutely not" act again. But she also gave herself some wiggle room, adding, "I guess never say never."
Now, she is, indeed, returning to her roots. Last spring, it was announced that Meghan signed with top talent agency WME and is being repped by its CEO himself, Ari Emanuel. Though the focus for Meghan and Archewell, the entertainment company she founded with Harry, was understood to be film and TV series development and production as well as business and brand partnerships, that's likely not all that's on the agenda. "It's no secret that Meghan is waging a Hollywood comeback," says an insider. "Her royal princess days are over, so she misses the spotlight and attention and needs the money."
