Meghan Markle recently marked her return to acting with a cameo in the upcoming film “Close Personal Friends.” The Duchess of Sussex was spotted on the set of the Amazon-MGM comedy, Pasadena, looking content. She would star alongside Lily Collins, Jack Quaid, Brie Larson, and Henry Golding in the movie. Looking at her reaction on set, a source told #ShuterScoop, that Markle has “caught the acting bug again.” It felt like a ‘rebirth’ for her.
“She lit up the second cameras rolled,” a crew insider told the outlet. “It’s like she never left.”While many might have thought she might have difficulty facing the camera for the first time since embracing the royal life, insiders confirmed that wasn’t the case. The mom of two, in fact, instantly felt at home in her surroundings. From interacting with the crew in between shots to taking directions, she handled everything with finesse.
As per the source, Markle “reintroduced herself to everyone, from grips to lighting.” She was a “total pro — zero diva” on the sets.
Seeing her content, one Montecito pal revealed that “acting is her first love.” The friend believed that when she was in front of the camera, the royalty “remembered who she really is.”
While Markle is excited for her second acting innings, even her husband, Prince Harry, is happy for her. “He wants her fulfilled,” a source said. “He’s proud of her.”
The star left her role in the hit series, “Suits,” eight years ago after announcing her engagement to Harry. But she is now excited to be back on sets. A studio source told The Sun: “This is a massive moment for Meghan and signifies a return to doing what she truly loves. She has been swamped with offers but this one felt right.”
The insider further added that this is Markle’s “way of gently putting her toe back in the water and seeing how she enjoys being back on set.”
