Patrick J. Adams Says Meghan Markle Coming on His Suits Podcast Would Be About ‘Celebrating What She Did on the Show…. see More ‘
Hopefully, along the way, she’ll come and join us for a conversation. That would obviously be incredible,” Adams said of Meghan guest-starring on his rewatch podcast with Sarah Rafferty
Patrick J. Adams and Sarah Rafferty will welcome any of their past Suits costars with open arms for an appearance on their new rewatch podcast — and Meghan Markle is certainly part of that group.
Adams previously shared in a post on Reddit that Meghan, 43, reached out to him after he and Rafferty, 51, launched the podcast, Sidebar: A Suits Podcast, and he’s now elaborating further on what it would look like, should his former costar come onto the show.
Obviously, we informed the cast and said, ‘Look, guys, we really want to do this thing, and we are telling our stories. This is not about telling anyone else’s story.’ Especially with Meghan, she’s had, obviously, such a crazy life since the end of the show,” Adams, 43, told The Hollywood Reporter of how he and Rafferty are approaching guest stars.

Meghan “sent a lovely note in full support of the show and asking us how she could help,” he said. “We’re very excited to see if and when there’s a crossover and we can do that.”
Should Meghan, who played Rachel Zane on the series until her exit in 2018, come on the podcast, Adams said, “Our North Star with Meghan is, like I said, we are never going to tell anybody else’s story. We’re super interested in just celebrating what she did on the show.”
“She brought Rachel to life in such a beautiful way, and that was such an important part of my experience on the show because Mike and Rachel are such a huge part of that journey for me,” he continued, referring to his character, Mike Ross, who ended up marrying Meghan’s character. “So, for our purposes, it’s just about celebrating that and completely staying away from anything outside of that.”
Hopefully, along the way, she’ll come and join us for a conversation. That would obviously be incredible,” Adams added.
In the Reddit thread where he answered fan-submitted questions — and first revealed that Meghan had texted him about the podcast — Adams also was asked if it’s “weird that your costar is now royalty,” to which he said that Meghan “leads a very different life now for obvious and important reasons.”
He also said they “are not really in touch” on a regular basis, but her support for the podcast was “so lovely.”
