Late last month, Netflix announced that Markle’s show "Suits," which she starred in from 2011 to 2018, would drop on the streaming service on June 17.The show had previously been available on other streaming services like Peacock.  The Duchess of Sussex was mainly known for her role as attorney Rachel Zane on the USA legal drama before she left acting ahead of her lavish 2018 royal wedding to Prince Harry at Windsor Castle.  The couple participated in their first Trooping the Colour in 2018 following their wedding.  While Markle’s character was written out of "Suits" after its seventh season because of her royal engagement, the drama lasted nine seasons, which will all be available to binge as counter programming to Charles’ royal pomp.
