As Meghan Markle prepares to return to the UK with Prince Harry and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, it had been rumoured that the Duchess of Sussex would make a return to acting.
Deadline has now reported that Meghan will be joining Theo James in the third season of Netflix's The Gentlemen. The publication claimed that the royal is in early talks with Guy Ritchie about joining the cast of the crime thriller.
However, sources told the publication that the deal wasn't done yet, especially with the Netflix series not yet officially being renewed for a third season. A role also hasn't yet been identified for Meghan.
There have been plenty of rumours about the Duchess of Sussex restarting her acting career, and a source close to the family told HELLO!: "There have been inquiries in the entertainment space recently and things that she is considering but nothing is firm yet. There are only conversations."
Meghan's most famous role was paralegal Rachel Zane in Suits, but she also starred in Hallmark movies and films Horrible Bosses and Remember Me. She put her acting career on hold when she married Harry in 2018 in St George's Chapel, Windsor, telling the BBC at the time it marked the start of a "new chapter".
However, she hasn't left her TV career in the past, and has appeared several times on-screen including with her 2022 Netflix docuseries, Harry & Meghan, and her cooking and lifestyle show, With Love, Meghan.

Mark Borkowski, a PR expert, also hinted that Meghan could look to have a theatre career. "I know at least three or four West End theatre producers who would have her in a production tomorrow," he said.
"If Amanda Knox could be the biggest talking point of Edinburgh [the Edinburgh Festival Fringe], why wouldn't Meghan? Whether she wants to do that, I don't know, but a very sharp producer would definitely see a vehicle for her. The only thing they need to get right now is get themselves a good team that doesn't kowtow to what they want to hear."
