Meghan Markle is making her return to acting after an eight-year break. The Duchess of Sussex will appear in a cameo role in Amazon’s upcoming comedy Close Personal Friends, which stars Lily Collins, Brie Larson, Jack Quaid, and Henry Golding. The film, currently being shot in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, follows a couple whose lives intertwine with celebrity neighbours. Markle, who left acting in 2017 before marrying Prince Harry, said the role felt like the right opportunity to return. Social media reactions were divided, with some praising her comeback and others criticising her acting. Since leaving royal duties, Meghan has focused on media projects under Archewell Productions, and this latest move signals her official Hollywood comeback.
