The 2024 Golden Globes, which were held in the early hours of Monday, January 8, provided many anecdotes. From the kisses of Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner to the “threat” of Jennifer Lawrence. Another of the highlights was the emotional reunion of the actors from Suits, the series that catapulted Meghan Markle to fame before she became the Duchess of Sussex. However, the absence of the female lead left many intrigued.
The actors of the iconic series, Patrick J. Adams, Gina Torres, Sarah Rafferty and Gabriel Macht, who played Mike Ross, Jessica Pearson, Donna Paulsen and Harvey Specter respectively, gathered to present one of the awards of the night, reviving the nostalgia of fans of the successful production.
Despite the magic and nostalgia of the moment, Markle’s absence generated speculation and questions during the gala. She actually asked actress Gina Torres about it, and surprised her by revealing that she simply didn’t have her phone number.
“We don’t have her number. We just don’t have it, so… She’ll see. I’m sure she’s happy to see us here,” he commented. These words generated even more intrigue, since Torres was one of the guests at Meghan Markle’s wedding with Prince Harry.
Variety journalist Marc Malkin expressed his astonishment at the reunion of the cast of Suits. “Suits reunion! Everywhere I look, there’s a Suits star! Did you guys plan this? Are you all texting?” Malkin asked. Torres’ positive response to the cast’s bustling WhatsApp group highlighted the connection they still maintain.
Despite the absence of the Duchess of Sussex, it is worth remembering that Markle herself recently noted that she was proud to have been part of the cast of this successful production in which she played legal assistant Rachel Zane.
“It was great working on Suits with a great cast and crew. We had a great time. I was on it for seven seasons, which is a lot.” Markle left the production in the seventh season and there was speculation that she would return for the ninth, but by then she had already married Prince Harry.
