Patrick J Adams took to Instagram to issue a statement

Suits star Patrick J Adams has taken to social media to apologise for sharing a series of behind-the-scenes snaps from his time on the show.

Earlier this week, the 42-year-old posted a series of photos from his time on the hit series which featured a number of his former co-stars - including Meghan Markle.


Markle featured alongside the likes of fellow Suits star Sarah Rafferty, Gabriel Macht, Rick Hoffman, Max Topplin, and Gina Torres in the pictures shared by Adams.

Adams and Markle's characters on the show had a will-they-won't-they romance before her alter-ego Rachel Zane departed the series in 2018, one year before its finale.

Reminiscing on his time working with his former colleagues, Adam affectionately captioned the collection of snaps: "I miss my friends. Each and every one of them."

However, he's now taken the post down on his Instagram page and took to the social media platform on Wednesday night to explain why.

Apologising for the update, Adams said: "The last couple of days I foolishly and thoughtlessly let a trip down Suits memory lane distract me from the very real and ongoing fight everyone in @sagafta continues to wage in its effort to win our membership realistic 21st-century compensation and protections.

"It was an embarrassing oversight for which I'm incredibly sorry.

"So grateful to those who gently and swiftly course-corrected me here and I look forward to continuing the fight in the days and weeks ahead."

Adams then signed off his statement by including the hashtag: "sagaftrastrong."

Members of SAG-AFTRA have been on strike for 11 weeks now after they failed to reach an agreement with the AMPTP (Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers) over pay and working conditions.

Despite reports that negotiations had resulted in an agreement, strikes have continued and SAG-AFTRA has confirmed it is still negotiating with the trade association.

Negotiations will resume on Monday, October 2, with the union saying in a statement: "SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP will resume negotiations for a new TV/Theatrical contract on Monday, Oct. 2.

"Several executives from AMPTP member companies will be in attendance."

Markle, on the other hand, has recently been mingling among the A-listers at a charity fundraising event alongside Prince Harry in the US.

However, things took an awkward turn for the royal at the One805 Live! event she was awkwardly snubbed when she reached out for a microphone while on stage.

Markle and Prince Harry were pictured cosying up to the likes of Kevin Costner at the event as well as Oprah Winfrey.
