Meghan Markle might just be back on the screen in due time. The Duchess of Sussex, who gave up her acting career in Hollywood when she married Prince Harry, is reportedly looking at scripts to see if there is an acting job that could be perfect for her.
A royal commentator has claimed and told Daily Express that Duchess Meghan wants to return to acting because she is "bored behind the palace walls." Allegedly, she's looking for a part in a historical movie or perhaps do a documentary where she can share her knowledge and abilities as a producer, according to Rob Shuter. However, Duchess Meghan is keener on acting again than working behind the scenes.
"Meghan loves her royal life, she loves being a mum, but it's just not enough for her," the royal commentator said. "She wants to make a difference in the world, and she doesn't want to just turn up to royal events and shake hands with the crowd."
As for Prince Harry, Shuter said that Duke of Sussex is a supportive husband. He believes that Duchess Meghan's talent as an actress shouldn't go to waste and thus will be behind her if she plans to work in the movies or the small screen again.
The news comes as Yellowstone actor Kevin Costner said that Prince Harry wouldn't likely be pleased if Duchess Meghan returns to her old job. He won't likely want the mother of his son to be kissing someone else.
Prince Harry met Duchess Meghan when she was already a familiar face on television. She had been working for six seasons in the TV series Suits, opposite Patrick J. Adams as her TV boyfriend.
Duchess Meghan has been in showbusiness since 2002 with her first acting job in the daily soap opera General Hospital. She also worked in the FOX sci-fi drama Fringe and some guest appearances on CSI: NY, 90210 and Castle until she landed the role of the paralegal Rachel Zane in Suits.
Duchess Meghan quit acting when she and Prince Harry became engaged in November 2017. She told BBC in a sit-down interview that she made this decision because she wanted to focus her energy on the causes that her husband and the support of the royal.
"You realize that as you have access, or a voice that people are willing to listen to, [it comes with] a lot of responsibility, which I take seriously," the duchess said.
