Meghan Markle joined forces with her former Suits co-star to help promote her friend’s charity, posing in T-shirts that read “love like a mother.”
The Duchess of Sussex, 42, was seen beaming in new Instagram photos alongside actress Abigail Spencer to support her friend Kelly Zajfen’s new Mother’s Day campaign for her ‘Alliance of Moms’ charity.
A week after Zajfen gushed about Meghan’s new American Riviera Orchard jam on social media, the actress returned the favor by promoting the charity campaign.
Zajfen said of her actress friends: ‘You inspire me. You pick me up when I need it and love like a mother!’
Spencer appears to remain a close member of Meghan’s inner circle, while several of her former co-stars have been notably excluded from royal life as their stocks have skyrocketed in recent years.

In his Instagram post alongside Meghan, Zajfen thanked the actresses for “supporting this campaign and our youth.”
The trio wore the shirts two weeks after Zajfen launched her “Love Like a Mother” campaign, which aims to provide educational resources, doulas, medical care, housing and therapy for young mothers and their children.
Zejfen’s Alliance of Moms charity is a non-profit organization that supports young mothers in the foster care system.
In his Instagram post alongside Meghan, Zajfen thanked the actresses for “supporting this campaign and our youth.”
“When we talk about the people in our lives who lift us up when we need it with an undeniable force of pure love, I think of these two,” he wrote.
She added that proceeds from the sale of the t-shirts “support essential services, education and advocacy so young parents in foster care and their children can heal and thrive.”
Meghan’s support for her friend’s campaign came less than a week after Zajfen shared a glowing review of the royal’s new strawberry jam, launched through her American Riviera Orchard lifestyle brand.
After receiving a limited edition bottle, the charity boss wrote on social media: ‘Oh just a taste of what’s to come!’ I’m very proud of you, M.’
The friends also traveled to Utah together last month for a ski vacation, reports the daily beast.
While their friendship appears to be blossoming, Spencer’s appearance in the promo comes as people close to Meghan say she’s almost lost touch with the rest of her former Suits co-stars.
The Duchess is rumored to have experienced breakups with her Suits co-stars and former best friend Jessica Mulroney, but many of her former friends still have close ties with each other.
Gina Torres (pictured with Meghan in September 2011) recently claimed that no one on the show yet has the duchess’s contact details.
Although Meghan Markle’s former co-star Sarah Rafferty previously described the cast as a “family”, Gina Torres recently claimed that no one on the show yet has the duchess’s contact details.
At the Golden Globes in January, the actress, who played Jessica Pearson in the US drama, revealed that her former co-stars simply “don’t have her number” when asked if anyone had contacted the former actress.
One interviewer asked: “Who texted Meghan and said, ‘You have to come to the Golden Globes, Meghan Markle’?”
The star, who attended Harry and Meghan’s wedding in 2018, said: “We don’t have his number.” We just don’t do it. She will see it. She will look. She’ll be happy we’re here.
The following month, Patrick J. Adams and Gabriel Macht, who played Mike and Harvey on the show, revealed that they had also had “no communication” with Meghan.
