LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Meghan Markle's former colleague Patrick J Adams stirred excitement among fans this week by sharing pictures of her on social media.
There has been a resurgence of interest in the show 'Suits', which aired from 2011 to 2019 on the USA Network, partly due to its availability on streaming platforms like Netflix and partly because of Meghan Markle's rise to the upper echelons of royalty.
The series has since achieved record-breaking viewership numbers on Netflix.

'Suits' producer and creator open to the possibility
There has been ongoing speculation about the potential return or reunion of 'Suits' for several months now. Gene Klein, one of the show's executive producers, hinted at this possibility during an interview with TVLine in July.
When asked about the chance of a revival, considering the renewed interest in the show, he mentioned, "I've mentioned to [creator and showrunner] Aaron [Korsh] that I keep, in this era of reboots and reunions and all this other stuff, that I'm expecting a call at some point."
The producer acknowledged that reuniting the entire cast could pose challenges but expressed his enthusiasm for such an event. He hinted that Meghan's participation might not be feasible for a potential reunion.
The show's creator and writer, Aaron, has also not completely dismissed the idea. He recently tweeted, "There is no #Suits reboot or anything in the works. Strike would have to end, some network or streamer would have to reach out and then we would have to collectively want to. Which is no small thing…"
