Meghan Markle’s eye-watering salary for starring in Suits before meeting Prince Harry

Before she became a Duchess, Meghan Markle was an actress and landed her breakthrough role on USA Network's hit legal drama Suits - but how much did she really earn?

Meghan's stint on the show ended after six years when her relationship with Prince Harry escalated, leading her to become a full-time senior member of the British Royal Family. Despite her varied roles, Meghan's biggest payday came from Suits, where she reportedly pocketed an eye-watering £37,000 per episode, bringing her annual salary to an impressive £333,000. While her overall acting salary remains under wraps, insiders suggest that her earnings played a significant part in helping Meghan and Prince Harry afford their lavish Montecito home after they stepped back from their senior royal duties in 2020.
