Meghan Markle's first Hollywood wedding guests have arrived in London
We still low-key love Harvey.
We still low-key love Harvey.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding on Saturday will see both British blue bloods and Hollywood royalty rubbing elbows, making it one of the most exclusive guest lists ever. With the royal wedding bridesmaids officially announced and endless speculating about who else is coming, we know one thing for certain - two very recognisable faces from Meghan’s LA crew will definitely be in the pews.
Although Meghan Markle may have wrapped up her time as Rachel on Suits in an emotional wedding episode, she and the cast still seem to very much still be in contact. Her married co-stars Gabriel Macht and Jacinda Barrett have landed in the country with their little ones in tow for the festivities and our inner Suits obsessive is freaking out a little bit.
Like Meghan, Gabriel plays one of the show’s main characters; a high-powered lawyer named Harvey Spencer who carefully treads the line between slick operator and slimy creep. His wife Jacinda played one of his (many) love interests Zoe Lawford in a few episodes, though you may also recognise her as Rebecca from Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.
The couple currently seem to be having a blast touring London and appear to have been here at least since Monday, a.k.a. American mother’s day. Jacinda shared an adorable snap of her with her son Luca outside Buckingham Palace, captioning it, ‘Kissing in front of the Queen.’ (We’re not quite sure what Liz would think of that.)
They’ve clearly been on the tourist trail, as both she and Gabriel shared stunning photos of the two of them in Hyde Park.
Give it a couple of days, we bet there’ll be a snap of Big Ben and a red telephone box next.

Jacinda also sparked a lot of chat as prior to her London Instagram posts, she shared a gorgeous photograph of herself in a sweeping Emilia Wickstead dress that’s giving us major wedding guest dress inspo. She wrote, ‘Getting ready to fly to Europe, got places to go and people to see, but still deciding what to wear.’
She may have hashtagged the post #cannes and #paris, but we have a sneaking suspicion that it’s actually for the Windsor bash on Saturday. The Cannes film festival is currently chugging on and wraps up the day of the royal wedding. (We see you trying to throw us off the scent, Jacinda. The dress is great BTW.)
It's sweet to see that Meghan's still super close to her Suits co-stars, especially her onscreen beau Patrick J. Adams. He's one of her IRL best pals and has had her back every step of the way, famously clapping back at her racist Twitter trolls, writing the sweetest dedication to her on Instagram and - like anybody else tasked with attending a wedding - stressing about an appropriate royal wedding present.
He said to Entertainment Tonight, 'We were trying to choose between like a blender or bread maker. You know something classy, like a good blender. Like a Vitamix, yeah. She’s gonna need a Vitamix for sure.'
And we thought buying for our friends was hard. Yikes.
