Even though Meghan Markle keeps her life pretty private these days, we've been blessed with
some flat-out hilarious moments from the former Hollywood star through the years.
Be forewarned: Some of these moments are sure to make you laugh out loud.
Members of the royal family are expected to maintain a certain level of poise and presence
of mind. That explains why Meghan Markle and her hubby Prince Harry so often have a serious or
stoic demeanor during events and live interviews. But of course, there are some exceptions.
In November 2017, the pair spoke to BBC,
marking their very first television interview together and their first post-engagement press.
The lovebirds made it very clear how smitten they were with each other and during the interview
outtakes shared by International Business Times, you can watch them totally goofing off. Meghan
and Harry were seen making silly faces, hand gestures, and giggling incessantly. Unfortunately,
audio of the outtakes were not released so we can only guess what they were joking about,
but it was hilarious all the same. Meghan and Harry still have their serious moments more often
than not, of course, but the interview showed how fun-loving they can be behind the scenes.
From 2011 to 2018, Meghan Markle appeared as Rachel Zane in the legal drama Suits. The
show aired for nine seasons with Meghan missing only the final season--and throughout their time
filming, the cast appeared to get very close. So who can blame them for goofing off now and then?
There's tons of bloopers from the long-running show, with each one more hilarious than the last.
One of the most lovable moments was when Meghan was asked to act out a rather
serious scene with costar Rick Hoffman, but they ended up laughing so hard when
Meghan started speaking in Spanish that they had to restart the scene.
“Hold on a second!”
“Wait a second!”
The script apparently featured some tension between the two stars, but make no mistake--in
real life it was just the opposite. In an interview with AOL's Build Series, Meghan
revealed how her costars from Suits, especially Hoffman, wound up becoming like "family." In fact,
when she wed Prince Harry in May 2018, she invited Hoffman to attend, according to Us Weekly.
“Oh my, you’re dating--you’re gonna be dating a prince!
Leave it to Meghan Markle to turn an Uber ride into a full-blown party. In 2017,
she hopped in an Uber with makeup mogul Bobbi Brown to film a beauty segment,
and the two ladies had an absolute blast. What started out as a car ride full of
beauty tutorials from the famed makeup artist turned into a completely different moment. At
one point in their ride, Brown's phone went off, blasting a song from Biggie Smalls.
Meghan appeared to welcome the interruption, though, and started bopping her head and
dancing in tune with the song. Who knew she was a fan of one of Brooklyn's Finest?
In that same video, she and Brown had a zen moment in the back of the car,
taking a moment to meditate only to immediately start laughing.
As Meghan Markle divulged to Marie Claire, she attended Northwestern
University where she double-majored in international relations and theater.
But from time to time, even she gets stumped.
In 2016, Meghan attended an interview with UKTV where she was quizzed on her British knowledge.
She swiftly made her way through most of the questions, but one in particular tripped her up:
What is the national animal of England?
“Am i supposed to know that?
You don’t know that. Sorry I’m keeping that on-camera; she doesn’t know it either.”
Meghan was left puzzled by the British trivia question,
but when faced with the same question about Scotland, she was left equally exasperated.
“What is the national animal of Scotland? I don’t know! That’s not even a Jeopardy question.”
The video interview made for one hilarious--and slightly
awkward--series of moments from the soon-to-be Duchess of Sussex.
In May 2016, Meghan Markle conducted a round of press interviews in New York City and made AOL
headquarters one of her stops. While reminiscing on her time filming Suits, she shared some of
her favorite memories. One of these included a flashback that made Meghan roar with laughter as
she recounted it. It started by explaining her relationship with her Suits costars.
“Yes, of course we’re a family! We’ve grown up together.
The people that I’m closest with on this show though are Rick and Sarah.”
Rick Hoffman and Sarah Rafferty played Louis Litt and Donna Paulsen, respectively.
Meghan admitted that she and Hoffman got especially close during filming.
“Those are my buddies. Rick and I always go and get foot massages together.”
However, she was sure to add that the splurging on foot massages was mostly her costar's idea.
In character as a paralegal on USA's Suits, Meghan Markle was confident and always prepared.
But behind the scenes, it was a different story. The bloopers from her eight-season
stint on the drama series make fans love her all the more. One of these moments included a
scene with Patrick J. Adams, and the future royal just couldn't keep a straight face.
For some context, Meghan detailed in an article for Elle that she comes from a biracial
background. Her character Rachel Zane does too, as Suits references her heritage in one scene.
“I’ve never seen that movie. What? It’s black and white. Well so are you. Ugh.”
Take two!
Even a seasoned actress like Meghan Markle forgets her lines from time to time.
In one of her Suits scenes featuring Patrick J Adams, Meghan had one line
slip her mind multiple times in a row, which naturally made for a hilarious on-set moment.
“It’s great if I get in, and I’m only gonna get in if I get this done, and if I don’t get it done”
“It’s only great if I get in and if I can’t…”
Thankfully, Adams was feeling pretty lighthearted.
“It’s kinda fun to watch this. Let’s do it again!”
Meghan, of course, eventually nailed the scene. Oh, and if it seems like these two actors have
undeniable on-screen chemistry, there's a reason for that. According to Meghan, they knew each
other even before signing on for the USA series. Back in 2013, she explained to Marie Claire:
"Before Suits, I did a pilot every single year. I even did a pilot for ABC with Patrick J. Adams,
who plays Mike Ross on the show, like six years ago.”
In one of her on-camera interviews with Entertainment Tonight Canada in 2016,
Meghan Markle encountered a slight hiccup while filming.
“Let’s take the guesswork out of it. So… holding for sound.”
As the interview host said, sometimes things are completely out of your control, like construction
noises while doing an interview. Entertainment Tonight also reported that the sit-down chat with
Meghan was taped only a couple months before she had her first date with Prince Harry.
Even then, Meghan had love on the brain. In the same interview, she referenced the popular
sitcom Friends and spoke about how she dreamed of having a love just like Ross and Rachel.
“We can all have that love! Ross and Rachel.”
Looking back, the endearing interview might
have been the ultimate example of foreshadowing in Meghan's love life.
It's no secret that Meghan Markle is the ultimate foodie. After all, she ran her successful food
and culture blog, The Tig, for years. But she further proved her passion for a wide variety
of cuisines in her interview with Entertainment Tonight Canada. When she was faced with the
ultimatum of sushi or Mexican food, Meghan had a very difficult time choosing either option.
“Oh, man, that’s a tough one. Sssss...mexican!”
But don't go searching for any smexican recipes on The Tig, because Meghan
Markle closed her site upon entering her relationship with Prince Harry. She wrote
"After close to three beautiful years on this adventure with you,
it's time to say goodbye to The Tig. What began as a passion project (my little engine that could)
evolved into an amazing community of inspiration, support, fun and frivolity."
Meghan Markle is one charismatic lady — especially in interviews. In 2013,
she sat down with Craig Ferguson to chat about her early beginnings before fame
and detailed her time working at the U.S. Embassy in Buenos Aires , Argentina.
The chat soon took a silly turn when she gave her best impression of the local language.
“Do you speak Spanish?”
“I do now. But they speak a very different kind of Spanish. Castellano,
so it almost sounds like Italian.”
Meghan is able to get silly when looking back on her embassy work, but she took it
very seriously when she was in the midst of it. Meghan's global studies ultimately landed her
an internship with the embassy upon graduating, as she revealed in an article for Marie Claire.
"It was during their economic devaluation and our Secretary of the Treasury at the time, Paul
O'Neill, was there. So I'm 20 years old, in Buenos Aires, in a motorcade , doing that whole thing.”
Meghan Markle and Patrick J. Adams are the king and queen of Suits bloopers. As the two
lead actors, they filmed a lot of scenes together through the years, though not every episode went
off without a hitch. In one clip from the series, they had trouble seeing eye to eye.
“You were talking to my doll?”
“Mikey’s a great listener.”
“He has no ears.” “And yet somehow he hears me.”
“He has no ears.”
“And yet somehow he hears me.”
It appears they weren't really sure who was at fault for the mishap,
but things just kept getting more confusing.
“He has no ears."
"Am I?"
"That’s the line. Isn't it?" Oh! Great. Ready? Here we go. This is gonna be great.”
Even offscreen the two stars shared a fun-loving relationship. When Meghan parted ways with the
cast as she prepared to marry Prince Harry, Adams gave her the ultimate Instagram tribute, writing,
"Playing Meghan's television partner for the better part of a decade
uniquely qualifies me to say this: Your Royal Highness, you are a lucky man
and I know your long life together will be joyful, productive, and hilarious."
Meghan Markle loves her fans, no matter how busy she is.
During her candid 2016 interview with AOL's Build Series, Meghan took some
time to answer questions from the crowd. While delivering advice to one fan about charity work,
she stopped mid-chat to say "bless you" to another fan who'd sneezed.
“It’ll help-- to affirm for him bless you that…”
“Bless you, also.”
“Now back to Tim.”
The heartwarming interview also featured another surprise moment from Meghan when
she got up and walked across the room to hand something to a fan in the crowd.
It turns out Meghan recognized the fan from Twitter and had actually brought a
handwritten letter for her that day. The candid moment wasn't exactly planned to
be part of the interview, but with Meghan, there's always a little room for surprise.
Meghan Markle may have had to keep a certain kind of image as one of the British royals,
but in the past, Meghan has admitted to listening to trap rapper Desiigner.
The rapper secured the No. 1 spot on the Billboard's Hot 100 charts with
his smash hit "Panda," and Meghan admitted she was a fan in 2017.
“I think for working out it’s such a different beast. I always keep listening to what’s
top 40. That Panda song right now, forget it. It’s great for a run.”
That being said, Meghan probably won't be attending any concerts
for the hip-hop star anytime soon. And as for her favorite happy song?
“When I’m happy I listen to.... Whitney Houston I Wanna Dance with Somebody. Such a good song!”
