Whether directorial or acting, the nature of Meghan's role in the new series remains unclear. However, it has been confirmed that her former "Suits" co-star, Patrick J. Adams, is keen to see her return.

"Yes, yes, let's go, I'll do it. Yeah, I'm ready, Mike and Rachel in Seattle, Adams said while speaking with The Mirror, referencing their roles in the legal drama.

Should Meghan decide to return, it's rumored that her compensation would surpass the $50,000 per episode she earned during her time on "Suits." According to another PR expert, Mayah Riaz, Meghan's profile has increased since leaving "Suits" justifies the prospect of higher fees.

"In terms of her fee, given Meghan's increased profile since leaving Suits, it is reasonable to expect that her asking price would be significantly higher than her previous salary," Riaz told the news outlet, adding that the salary could range between $300,000-$400,000 per episode.

Reports of Meghan returning to the "Suits" family come after she and her husband, Prince Harry, were accused of "trolling" the royal family by "consorting and "hobnobbing" with officials from Jamaica during a trip to the island nation.

"The Reaction" co-host Andrew Pierce claimed that the Sussexes's gesture showed that they were "tone deaf," citing how they cozied up with the Jamaican PM Andrew Holness, who has a well-known stance of wanting to separate the island nation from the Commonwealth.

Meanwhile, his co-host Sarah Vince claimed that the couple wanted to "troll" the royal family, especially in this critical period when two senior royals face health challenges.

"They are deliberately trolling the Royal Family…. I think their game plan is going to be self-hating Royals," Vince said.

Pierce and Vine are not the only ones to have expressed disappointment with Harry and Meghan over their recent appearance with the Jamaican PM.

A different royal expert and author, Angela Levin, believes that it was a "major disrespect to the family." Levin also seemed to point accusing fingers at Meghan, saying she is hell-bent on seeing that the monarchy ceases to exist.

"I felt before Harry and Meghan even left that Meghan was going to try and destroy the Royal Family," the book writer said. "Meghan hates the monarchy, and I think she's encouraged Harry to feel that way as well, which is really sad."

Levin also claimed it was all a ploy for Meghan to get one over the royal family after she and her husband stepped down in 2020 and moved to California, USA.

"It's about Meghan wanting to prove that she is better than the family and how, in the end, they just want to outdo them," she added.
