Meghan Markle’s former Suits co-stars are set to launch their own podcast that promises to reveal exclusive behind-the-scenes gossip.
Patrick J. Adams and Sarah Rafferty will reunite for the project that is “dedicated to re-watching and examining” the hit legal drama, SiriusXM announced Tuesday.
It was teased that each week the duo will be joined by “special guests who played a role both in front of and behind the camera,” as well as friends and fans of the show.
The podcast comes after Patrick, along with co-star Gabriel Macht, previously confirmed they had “no communication” with Meghan, but fans will likely continue to speculate over whether the Duchess of Sussex will appear.
Earlier this month, the former actress’ Archetypes podcast received a rebrand after launching on all streaming platforms with a new cover.

The duchess, who showed off her acting skills today while reading to children at Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles, played Rachel Zane, a paralegal who becomes a formidable lawyer and eventually marries Ross.
Suits was added to Netflix in June last year and quickly attracted viewers with its 134-episode catalog, which skyrocketed to become the most streamed show of 2023.
Earlier this year, it was reported that a spin-off series titled Suits: LA was in the works, four years after the original show that propelled Meghan into the spotlight ended.
Speculation immediately arose as to whether or not the Duchess of Sussex would be involved, but sources close to the new show exclusively confirmed to DailyMail.com that Prince Harry’s wife had no plans to star in the series.
“Following the record-breaking revival of Suits, it seems like the perfect time to rewatch the show that changed our lives,” Patrick and Sarah said of their new project, which is currently untitled.
“We’re thrilled to collaborate with the incredible team at SiriusXM and look forward to connecting with our friends in the cast and crew, as well as the Suits fans who made it all possible.”
Adam Sachs, senior vice president of podcast content at SiriusXM, said of the company: “As we continue SiriusXM’s mission to bring listeners closer to the stars they love, we’re excited to partner with Patrick and Sarah to launch this new podcast dedicated to delving into a television show with a passionate, record-breaking audience.

Last month it was revealed that the duchess, 42, had signed a new podcast deal with Lemonada Media after she and Prince Harry parted ways with Spotify.
‘Through their work on the series, the beloved co-stars have developed an off-camera friendship that we know will be a delight for Suits fans, new and old. We can’t wait for you to listen.’
The podcast could rival Meghan’s, which recently received a makeover.
Last month it was revealed that the duchess, 42, had signed a new podcast deal with Lemonada Media after she and Prince Harry, 39, parted ways with Spotify.
The move will see her introduce a new podcast series for the woman-founded company and her previously Spotify-exclusive show launched across all platforms including Apple Podcasts, Audible and Spotify.
But actual fans quickly realized that Archetypes’ cover featuring Lemonada had undergone a slight makeover from its time on Spotify.
The same photo of Meghan is used, but appears to have undergone a rebrand for the relaunch of the podcast.
Earlier this month, the former actress’s Archetypes podcast received a rebrand after launching on all streaming platforms with a new cover (pictured).
The podcast maintains the same name: Archetypes with Meghan, and is described as “a podcast where we investigate, analyze and subvert the labels that try to hold women back.”
The previous 13 episodes of the podcast, dating from August to November 2022, are now available to stream on all platforms.
Meghan’s Archetypes podcast about female stereotypes ran for only one series before her lucrative deal with Spotify ended in 2023.
The new deal comes a year after the duchess and her husband, Prince Harry, ended their $20 million deal with Spotify and three years after it was signed.
“I’m proud to now share that I’ll be joining the brilliant team at Lemonada to continue my love of podcasting,” Meghan said in a statement last month.
Spotify and the Sussexes’ audio production company, Archewell Audio, issued a joint statement saying they “have agreed to part ways and are proud of the series we made together.”
A top Spotify podcast executive had called Prince Harry and Meghan ‘fucking scammers’ after they produced just one 13-episode series of a podcast for the company and then parted ways.
In a statement about her new podcast, Meghan added: “Being able to support a female-founded company with a lineup of highly entertaining and thought-provoking podcasts is a fantastic way to start 2024.
‘Our plan to relaunch “Archetypes” so that more people can access it, as well as the launch of a dynamic new podcast, are in the works. “I’m really looking forward to sharing it soon and I’m so happy to join the Lemonada family.”
