Andy Cohen is still fuming about missing out on Meghan Markle’s guest appearance Watch what’s happening live.
Long before Markle, 42, married Prince Harry and became the Duchess of Sussex, she played Rachel Zane on the USA Network legal drama, Suits. Around that time, Markle was cast as a guest on Cohen’s late-night Bravo show.
“It was when she was involved Suits,” Cohen, 55, explained during Saturday’s “Ask Andy” panel at BravoCon 2023. “I didn’t watch Suits. And I guess it was set and we went through, and as my executive producer said, ‘You really never know who’s going to be the duchess.'”
Asked by moderator Rachel Lindsay if there were any other stars he turned down, Cohen said: “I don’t know, but we’ll find out. To think there could be clips of Meghan Markle messing with me, shooting and talking about Vicki Gunvalson? I want kill yourself.”
