In a recent red carpet appearance, Meghan Markle, known for her role as Rachel Zane in the cable TV show Suits, seemed to overlook her fellow cast members.
While praising her own seven-year stint on the series, she failed to acknowledge the contributions of others.
However, Netflix’s decision to pick up the show’s repeats and capitalize on Meghan’s fame has sparked controversy.
This tension came to a head at the Golden Globe Awards, resulting in a bit of a fracas.
Allow me to explain.
Good morning!
I hope you’re doing well today.
Thank you for joining me.
I genuinely appreciate your company.
By the way, I want to express my gratitude for your lovely comments about Lana and Liz.
It’s interesting how divas always seem to find themselves in conflicts, even though they appear to have it all.
I once had the opportunity to meet Elizabeth Taylor, who, despite being famous her whole life, still held a grudge against former co-star Lana Turner.
Both of them had been through numerous marriages, yet they yearned for more.
If you have the time, I encourage you to watch the video discussing this topic.
The Golden Globes are often seen as a precursor to the Oscars, although the latter doesn’t generate much interest here in the United Kingdom.
ITV, the little watch channel, has recently acquired the rights to broadcast the Oscars for a bargain price.
But what caught my attention was the fact that all the cast members of Suits were invited to the Golden Globes, except for Meghan Markle.
Her docu-series, Harry and Meghan: The Event, wasn’t nominated, and Meghan, or should I say Rachel, wouldn’t attend an event where her name wasn’t recognized.
This is something we all know, right?
However, there’s another intriguing aspect to this story.
You may have already heard about it.
Gina Torres, a talented and beautiful actress who played a significant role in Suits, made a statement that contradicted the notion of any friendship between her and Meghan.
It seems that not everyone was pleased with Gina’s remark, as they wanted to maintain the illusion that Meghan was still close with her former co-stars.
Why?
It’s all about publicity and staying relevant.
If it were to be revealed that Meghan cut ties with them after her wedding in 2018, once they had served their purpose of garnering attention for her in America, what use would there be for them?
However, certain individuals discovered that Meghan can easily reach out when she wants to, as evidenced by her response to their social media posts featuring old pictures together.
Yet, Meghan simply chooses not to.
It’s safe to assume that their usefulness has expired, and there’s no point in maintaining contact.
Furthermore, the cast members are not pleased with how Netflix has exclusively promoted Meghan as the star of the show, as depicted in a particular drawing.
This is why Gina tactfully decided to dispel the myth that Meghan is still friends with her former co-stars.
This story is still developing, and as soon as I have more information, you will too.
