Patrick J. Adams, famously known for his role in the legal drama “Suits,” recently shared an exclusive travel hack taught to him by his former Suits co-star Meghan Markle. In a PEOPLE interview, Adams, 44, discussed the valuable lesson he learned from the Duchess of Sussex during their time filming the hit series. The topic arose as Adams contemplated appearing on the upcoming season of “With Love, Meghan” alongside his wife, Troian Bellisario. The actor praised Meghan for her “tricks of the trade” and unique approach to packing a travel bag, which he found to be “so genius.”

During the interview, Adams revealed that one of the most beneficial tips he learned from Meghan was how to pack a travel bag effectively, rather than haphazardly throwing items in. According to Adams, Meghan advised him to fold items neatly and include dryer sheets in the bag. The actor expressed his admiration for Meghan’s attention to detail and practical approach to packing, confessing that it was a technique he would not have thought of on his own. The advice resonated with him as a simple yet effective way to enhance the travel experience.
Meghan and Adams shared an on-screen romance as their characters, Rachel Zane and Mike Ross, respectively, in “Suits.” Their characters eventually tied the knot on the show, adding depth to their relationship on and off-screen. Meghan’s departure from the series coincided with her real-life journey to becoming a member of the British royal family through her marriage to Prince Harry in 2018. Despite her exit, “Suits” continued for two more seasons, with Adams returning as a recurring character in the final season.
When asked about the possibility of a “Suits” revival with the original cast, Adams expressed openness to the idea, emphasising the strong bond among the cast members and the positive experiences they shared during the show’s run. He acknowledged the potential challenges of reviving a popular series but highlighted that if the demand and creative vision aligned, anything could be possible. Adams stressed the importance of maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the original show in any revival endeavour.
Following the resurgence of “Suits” on Netflix, Adams and co-star Sarah Rafferty launched a rewatch podcast titled “Sidebar: A Suits Watch Podcast.” The podcast garnered attention, including a heartfelt message of support from Meghan, who commended the initiative and offered assistance. Adams appreciated the gesture, noting the enduring friendship and camaraderie shared among the former cast members. The podcast served as a platform for reconnecting with the series and engaging with fans in a new and interactive way.
Although a “Suits” revival has not been confirmed, Adams remains actively engaged with the show’s legacy and the ongoing interest in its characters and storylines. He is set to star in Netflix’s thriller series “Wayward,” showcasing his versatility as an actor beyond his iconic role in “Suits.” Meghan’s continued admiration for the show’s impact reflects its enduring popularity and cultural significance. As fans rediscover “Suits” through streaming platforms, the timeless appeal of the series and its memorable characters continue to resonate with audiences worldwide.
