Meghan Markle's surprising confession during rare red carpet interview

Meghan Markle made a surprising confession during a rare red carpet interview at Variety's Power of Women event this week.

The Duchess of Sussex walked the red carpet without her husband, Prince Harry. When Entertainment Tonight asked the former Suits star if it was "mum's night out," she responded with a laugh, "Exactly."

During her time on the red carpet, Meghan confessed she has some "exciting" plans for the future.

When Variety asked about the driving force behind her work, the Duchess responded, "Things that make people feel … I was going to say things that make people feel good, but it’s more than that. Things that make people feel something, right? And a sense of community.

"But we have so many exciting things on the slate, I can’t wait until we can announce them. I’m just really proud of what we’re creating."

The publication also spoke with Meghan about the enduring love fans have for Suits, in which she starred as Rachel Zane from 2011 to 2017.

While the show concluded in 2019, it has consistently been one of the most-streamed series on Netflix, recently crossing 45 billion streams.

"Isn’t that wild?" she said. "It was great to work on, such a great cast and crew. We had a really fun time. I was on it for seven seasons, so quite a bit. But it’s hard to find a show you can binge-watch that many episodes of these days, so that could have something to do with it. But good shows are everlasting."

It comes after Meghan and Prince Harry's friend Omid Scobie shared an excerpt of his new book Endgame with People, where he claimed Prince William had described his brother as a "defector".

"These were two men who once upon a time were firmly aligned in their outlook," Omid writes. "One of them had to move on to also protect the crown. They will never see eye-to-eye at this point. They’re on completely opposite sides … that won’t change."

However, he added that Harry is "really to move past" their issues if William would do the same, however, the Prince of Wales "refuses to talk with him".
