Every Role (And Where to Watch)

Meghan Markle’s acting career didn’t make her a household name. But Meghan’s movies and TV shows did raise her profile enough to where she met Prince Harry and became one of the most famous people in the world. 

Meghan hasn’t acted since marrying Harry in 2018. Despite the renewed popularity of her TV drama Suits, the duchess has limited her on-screen appearances to interviews, documentaries, and a commercial cameo.

Showbiz Cheat Sheet’s guide to Meghan Markle’s acting career covers every one of her movie and TV appearances. It also answers where you can see Meghan’s acting in 2024.

‘Married…With Children’

Meghan Markle’s first acting role was in the classic sitcom Married…With Children. Like so many other actors, Meghan got her start as an uncredited extra in just one episode.

Meghan appeared in season 9 episode 28 titled “The Undergraduate,” which aired in 1995. It’s a “blink-and-you’ll-miss-it” moment as the future royal sits on stage in the background of a school scene.

Married…With Children is available to stream on Hulu.

‘General Hospital’

Meghan’s first credited acting role was in a 2002 episode of General Hospital. She played a nurse named Jill in the Nov. 14, 2022, episode.

Meghan already had a connection to General Hospital before landing the gig. Her father, Thomas Markle, Sr., served as the soap opera’s lighting director. Meghan delivers one forgettable line in her turn as Jill.

Past seasons of General Hospital are not available to stream.
