And Simon isn’t the only star to have publicly defended Meghan from mistreatment in the tabloids. When the Duchess of Sussex was accused of bullying royal staffers in a Times article last March, several of her former colleagues spoke out to stand up for her.
Her response was: “It disgusted me to read all the racist, slanderous or clickbaiting vitriol she received from any media in the UK and around the globe.” Suits co-star Patrick J. Adams tweeted at the time, “but I also knew that Meghan was stronger than people realized or understood and they would regret underestimating her.”
Likewise, Suits writer Jon Cowan had nothing but praise for Meghan. He wrote that “It is also possible the Dukes of Sussex was a good individual thrust into an impossible world.” She was warm and caring, even though I spent three years with her before she became Duchess.
