Before marrying Prince Harry in 2018 and becoming the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle was best known for her role as Rachel Elizabeth Zane on hit show Suits.

The actress was cast in Suits back in 2011 and it became her biggest and best-know role. The hit show concluded on 25 September 2019, just six months after her royal wedding, after nine seasons and 134 episodes.

Meghan made many life friends during her time on Suits, and a lot of her fellow castmates were invited to witness her wedding at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle.

Over the years, Meghan's former cast mates have shared many photos of the now royal and on Sunday, as Rick Hoffman, who played Louis Litt on the hit show, marked Father's Day, he delighted fans by sharing a never-before-seen photo of Meghan.

The snap featured in a beautiful video montage that Rick created in honour of his dad on his special day.

Alongside many photos of him and his dad together, and his parents visiting on film sets, a photo showed Rick and his parents posing alongside his Suits co-stars Gabrielle Macht, Sarah Rafferty and Meghan Markle.

In the sweet photo, Meghan can be seen smiling broadly whilst holding one of Sarah's daughters in her arms.

It's not the first time that Rick has shared a photo of Meghan. Back in 2021 he shared a snap showing them having a drink together whilst laughing and sweetly captioned it "The good ol' days".

And when the show ended, he opened up about his sadness over "losing Meghan".

"Losing Meghan and Patrick [Adams] is like losing part of our heart muscle and now we’re going to bypass it with some really, really great actors," he told The West Australian. "Everybody’s so excited to be a part of this, that energy I feel is contagious … So I think you take the heartbreak and you turn it into positive energy and let that catapult you into the next chapter."

"It’s a dream job," he continued. "I know that sounds like a cliché, but it’s the truth."
