Suits smashed a Netflix record in July

Meghan Markle's Suits co-star has paid a cheeky tribute to the Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry in his bio on Instagram.

The royal's most prominent acting role was portraying paralegal Rachel Zane in Suits.


In July 2023, Suits smashed a Netflix record, four years after its last episode was released.

Suits set a viewing time record for an acquired series in the week of June 26-July 2.

It had 3.14 billion minutes of watch time, according to Nielsen, smashing the previous record of 2.49 billion minutes for Manifest.

Patrick J. Adams plays Mike Ross who is in a relationship with Rachel in Suits.

Adams has updated his Instagram bio to reflect the resurgence of interest in the legal soap.

His bio reads: "The guy from that show you’re watching on that app because that girl married that prince."

In June 2023, Netflix added all nine series of the programme for the first time on its US platform.

Netflix in the United Kingdom has been streaming Suits following TV channel Dave choosing not to pick the programme up from season seven onwards.

Last week the creator of Suits, Aaron Korsh, sensationally claimed that the Royal Family weighed in on some matters regarding the series.

Korsh also gave an example of a line of dialogue that he removed at the request of the Royal Family.

He said: "[The Royal Family] weighed in on some stuff.

"Not many things, by the way, but a few things that we wanted to do and couldn’t do, and it was a little irritating.

"I remember one was a particular line of dialogue and, look, I’ll just say what the line was.

"My wife’s family, when they have a topic to discuss that might be sensitive, they use the word 'poppycock.'

"As a nod to my in-laws, we were going to have [Meghan's character] say 'poppycock' and the Royal Family did not want her saying the word.

"They didn’t want to put the word 'poppycock' in her mouth.

"I presume because they didn’t want people cutting things together of her saying 'c**k.'"
