Meghan Markle Returns to Acting, Filming Amazon-MGM Comedy in Los Angeles

Set photos confirm a Los Angeles shoot that commentators cast as a U.S.-focused pivot with potential to strain royal relations.

Overview

  • New images show Markle leaving a Pasadena location while filming Close Personal Friends, marking her first on‑camera role in about eight years.
  • Multiple reports say she appears as herself alongside Lily Collins, Brie Larson, Jack Quaid and Henry Golding.
  • An unnamed production source cited in tabloid reporting says she was overwhelmed with offers and chose this project because it felt right.
  • The on‑set sightings were reported as Prince William visited Brazil for the Earthshot Prize and Prince Harry traveled to Canada, with a royal pundit arguing the move deepens the family rift.
  • Harry separately published a letter emphasizing pride in Britain, while a reported insider said he supports Meghan pursuing what makes her happy.
