Like practically everyone else in the world, Meghan Markle’s former Suits co-star, Wendell Pierce, who played her father – Robert Zane – on the show, is counting down the days until the highly-anticipated arrival of Baby Sussex. The actor, who is currently working in London, shared his excitement about the royal baby in a tweet.
The on-screen father-and-daughter duo shared a special bond on the show, and even more so before her departure from Suits and her start to life as a royal.
Pierce said “I had a really wonderful moment as we were coming to an end of her time on the show,” He added “it was just she and I in the room and I said, ‘I know your life is going to change but always know, no matter where you are, I will always be your loving fake father.”
As Meghan approaches the end of her pregnancy, she and Harry have been making the most of their final weeks as a family of two, including going on a mini-babymoon at Heckfield Place, just 45 minutes from their new and not-so-humble abode, Frogmore Cottage at Windsor Castle.
The Duck and Duchess were said to have spent three nights at the five-star hotel, in a private apartment that includes an outdoor terrace, fireplaces and a personal butler.
