Before she married into the royal family and became a duchess, Meghan Markle was a Hollywood actress and she took part in the USA series Suits. Meghan Markle grew up in Los Angeles and she was surrounded by the film industry since her father, Thomas Markle, worked as a lighting director and director of photography. Despite all this, Meghan didn’t even think about an acting career before she saw Julia Roberts on screen.
“She was the first person I saw onscreen and thought, ‘That looks like so much fun; I wanna do that,’” the Duchess shared in a 2017 article.

Julia Roberts didn’t only have an influence in Meghan Markle’s life career- she changed her life relationship as well. After she found inspiration in Julia’s work, Meghan pursued acting herself. When she landed a role on Suits, she moved to Toronto where it was filmed. Even though she still considered Los Angeles her home, she spent a lot of time in Canadian city since she filmed seven seasons.
While living in Toronto, the Duchess of Sussex made friends such as Jessica Mulroney and Marcus Anderson, who introduced her to Prince Harry via blind date. So without her acting career, Meghan would probably never lived in Toronto, and she wouldn’t meet anyone connected to the British royal family.

It might seem a bit unbelievable that Julia Roberts is responsible for their relationship since she doesn’t know the Duke and the Duchess personally, but this isn’t so crazy after all. However, if you believe in the theory of soulmates, Meghan and Harry would meet and fall in love even without her acting career.
In an alternate universe, they could meet since they share a passion for philanthropy. Meghan even studied International Studies when she attended Northwestern University. So if she didn’t pursue acting, her other interests could have led her to her prince.
