In episode 7, Meghan Markle welcomed her longtime friend Heather Dorak and mixologist Payman Bahmani-Bailey to make drinks when the conversation turned to what the bartender did before becoming a cocktail specialist.After Payman revealed he used to be a lawyer in New York City, the mother of two brought up her former USA Network show, where she played an attorney for numerous seasons before marrying Prince Harry.
"Did you watch Suits?" Meghan asked.
"No, no, I don't watch basic cable. I like shows with curse words and stuff," Payman jokingly admitted.
Taking the admission in stride, the 44-year-old noted, "Great, I love it."

Online readers and social media users were outraged by Meghan Markle asking someone if they had watched her former television show."It's like it was painful for her to ask a question not related to her. And then she did ask a question related to her and was humiliated," one person wrote on X.
"Did he just bulldoze her by saying he doesn't watch basic cable? Ouch," another added.
"Oh, good God did he say, 'No, no I don't watch basic cable?'" a third penned.

Although Meghan Markle's guest failed to watch Suits, many people have since discovered the legal series after the former actress rose to prominence upon marrying into the royal family."I'm not surprised that people are rediscovering Suits because it was so well written and so well produced," Meghan gushed in an interview. "It's a time capsule for me. I still have the pencil skirt from the first episode! That's the one thing I kept."
The California native exited the show and ended her acting career when she became engaged to Prince Harry in November 2017. "I don't see it as giving anything up. I just see it as a change," she explained during an interview after her now-husband proposed. "It's a new chapter, right? And also, keep in mind, I've been working on my show for seven years. We were very, very fortunate to have that sort of longevity on a series."
