Gabriel Macht talks about Meghan Markle’s possible return in ‘Suits: LA’

Longtime viewers of the gripping legal drama are anticipating what will happen with the announcement of the ‘Suits’ spin-off series ‘Suits: LA.’ Best known for playing the witty lawyer Harvey Specter, Gabriel Macht has expressed his opinions about the return of the show and the potential return of former co-star Meghan Markle.
Gabriel Macht admitted in an interview with USA Today that he was taken aback by the renewed interest in ‘Suits,’ which debuted in 2011 but gained new popularity after it started to stream on Netflix in 2023. About Meghan Markle, who portrayed Rachel Zane in the show and is currently the Duchess of Sussex, he stated that he "never in a million years" expected to be questioned about the royal family because of a former co-star.

Gabriel consented to return for ‘Suits: LA,’ primarily due to the fans, even though he left the legal drama years ago.
Further, when asked if Meghan Markle's recognition might have contributed to Suits' success on streaming services or if she might feature in the spin-off. "I don't know the logistics; I don't know the numbers. But perhaps. She is quite known around the world these days, right?”
In a separate interview with Extra, Macht offered more insight about the spin-off. “We do know Rick Hoffman’s coming back, and I think fans are gonna love that. Patrick [J. Adams] and Sarah [Rafferty] have mentioned that they would love to come back,” he said. On Markle’s return, Macht added with a smile, “Never say never.”
Gabriel was supportive of his former co-star, even though he hasn't yet seen Meghan's Netflix series ‘With Love, Meghan.’“All good things for Meghan. I hope she's doing great,” he said.
Fans feel curious and optimistic about the possibility of Markle playing the part again, even for a short time. ‘Suits: LA’ appears to be a nostalgic yet modern expansion of the cherished legal universe, with well-known characters already joining the new project.
