It was a shock to many when Fits blew up on Netflix the best way it did, resulting in a renewed curiosity within the nine-season authorized drama that starred Meghan Markle, Patrick J. Adams, Gina Torres and extra. It even led to the Fits LA spinoff, which premiered on the 2025 TV schedule in February however was sadly canceled after one season. A supply is now saying that Markle may have helped to stop that, had she not turned down a visitor look.
The Duchess of Sussex, who portrayed Rachel Zane for seven seasons of the unique present, didn’t seem on Fits LA earlier than it turned one other of the exhibits canceled in 2025 — dashing our hopes of a Prince Harry-on-set story. There could also be some dangerous blood there, too, as a supply for Radar says the forged and crew of the spinoff is allegedly dissatisfied that Meghan Markle reportedly turned her again on the present as an alternative of serving to. The insider mentioned:
Meghan wouldn’t be within the place she is in the present day if producer Aaron Korsh hadn’t forged her within the unique present. And it was a bit smug of her, to not point out dangerous karma, to completely flip her again on the franchise that gave her such an enormous break. Clearly there’s numerous disappointment among the many forged proper now. The consensus is that if Meghan had needed to lend her assist it will have made all of the distinction, a minimum of when it comes to notion, however she clearly had different concepts.
There have been rumors that she may seem on the spinoff, and definitely there was hope. Aaron Korsh, the creator of each Fits and Fits LA, mentioned the door was open to Meghan Markle for a cameo, both as Rachel and even enjoying herself.
The insider alleges that because the present didn’t get good scores, Fits higher-ups have been begging the duchess to make an look, as her co-star Gabriel Macht had. Macht reprised the position of Harvey Specter for a three-episode arc, but it surely didn’t transfer the dial the best way a special cameo doubtless would have. The supply mentioned:
The largest get for the producers is clearly Meghan Markle.
That clearly didn’t occur, and the supply went on to say that not solely may Meghan Markle presumably have stored Fits LA from cancellation, however doing a strong for her outdated mates may need benefited her down the highway. Of their phrases:
It’s a must to surprise if there was ever any model of this spinoff that would have drawn in Meghan. Her enterprise stance on TV tasks today is that she must be the middle of any present she does, and he or she must be a producer as effectively. Holding a tough line like that exhibits Meghan nonetheless would not totally perceive the TV enterprise – as a result of doing an outdated colleague a favor in a pinch can solely carry you goodwill sooner or later.
It’s all the time good to be owed a favor, and particularly if cash’s a bit tight today — the Sussexes reportedly needed to make some staffing cuts to avoid wasting money not too long ago — it may need been good for Meghan Markle to have that in her again pocket, if the insider’s allegations are true.
Appearing simply doesn’t appear to be part of her plan, although, as she’s specializing in her way of life model. You continue to can see the Duchess on TV by streaming With Love, Meghan (or Fits) with a Netflix subscription. Fits and Fits LA may also be streamed with a Peacock subscription.
