Meghan Markle is reportedly considering returning to acting when she and husband Prince Harry move back to the U.K.
Australia’s news.com.au broke the news on Friday, August 21, that the Duchess of Sussex, 45, has been offered a role in an upcoming project based in the U.K. Details about the project have yet to be revealed.
The BBC and the Telegraph reported Friday that sources close to the Sussexes “have not denied” the reports.
Us has reached out to Meghan and Harry’s representatives for comment.
On Wednesday, August 19, People and other outlets reported that Meghan and Harry, 41, are relocating to the U.K. this month with their children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5.
According to the BBC, the royal couple will live in a “private, non-royal residence outside London,” and their children are already enrolled to start school in the U.K. in September.
According to People, Harry and Meghan will keep their home in Montecito, California, and their vacation residence in Portugal.
Harry’s father, King Charles III, learned of the pair’s move on Sunday, August 16, reported the outlet.
Harry and Meghan left the U.K. for California in 2020, after stepping down as senior working members of the royal family.
Before joining the royal family in 2018, Meghan was best known for playing paralegal Rachel Zane on the hit legal drama Suits. She was a main cast member for the show’s first seven seasons before leaving upon her engagement to Harry, at which time she stepped away from acting.
“I think what’s been so exciting [transitioning] out of my career and into, as you said, the causes I can focus even more energy on, very early out of the gate, [is that you] have a voice that people listen to, a lot of responsibility,” Meghan said at the time.
“I’ve been working on my show seven years, we were so fortunate to have that longevity, and I feel like I checked that box and am very proud of the work I’ve done there,” Meghan added of Suits.
Since her acting retirement, Meghan has largely focused on documentary and lifestyle television shows, such as With Love, Meghan, which aired for two seasons on Netflix and was recently nominated for an Emmy, as well as her lifestyle brand, As Ever.
In November 2025, news broke that Meghan had filmed a cameo in the new movie Close Personal Friends, marking her first acting role in eight years. Meghan is expected to play herself in the film, which stars Oscar winner Brie Larson, Lily Collins, Jack Quaid and Henry Golding.
