The upcoming airing of ‘Suits’ on BBC has sparked a conversation among royal experts, particularly regarding the potential interest of Prince William and Kate Middleton in the show, despite recent controversies involving Meghan Markle.
Royal commentator Ephraim Hardcastle, in his piece for The Daily Mail, delved into Meghan Markle’s chances of retaining viewership, particularly among members of the royal family.
Given the reported affinity of Prince William and Kate Middleton for the legal drama, as revealed by Prince Harry himself, Hardcastle pondered whether the couple’s fans would also be inclined to tune in.
The speculation arises as ‘Suits’ is slated to air on BBC, bringing the popular series to a wider audience.
