Meghan Markle's Former Co-Star Recalls 'Foul' Smell At Royal Wedding

During Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's 2018 wedding, a peculiar incident involving a foul smell caught the attention of Meghan's former 'Suits' co-star, Rick Hoffman. The actor, known for his role as Louis Litt in the legal drama series, made headlines with a viral photo showing his disgusted expression during the royal nuptials at St. George's Chapel.

Recalling the moment on a podcast, Hoffman explained that despite his excitement for the event, he started to detect a terrible odor in the air. Being sensitive to smells, he covered his nose with a hand that had coconut- and vanilla-scented moisturizer on it, trying to mask the unpleasant scent.

In 'Suits,' Hoffman portrayed a lawyer while Markle played a paralegal, and the two shared the screen for several seasons before Markle left the show in 2018 to marry Prince Harry. Despite her departure, Markle remained in touch with her former castmates, with some attending her royal wedding.

While Markle declined an offer to reunite with the 'Suits' cast at the Golden Globe Awards, the show experienced a resurgence in popularity after becoming available for streaming on Netflix. The cast members have been keeping in touch, with the exception of Markle, who is not part of their group text.

Markle herself expressed her delight at the show's renewed success, attributing it to the binge-watching culture and the enduring quality of good television. Although she seems unlikely to return for a 'Suits' spinoff, Markle and Prince Harry have been focusing on their entertainment ventures, including their Archewell production company, Markle's upcoming podcast, and the launch of their Sussex.com website.

Since stepping back from their royal duties in 2020, the couple now resides in Montecito, California, with their two children, Archie and Lilibet. As they continue to build their presence in the entertainment industry, Markle and Harry are poised for a Hollywood comeback.
