When Meghan Markle married Prince Harry and became a member of the firm, she ended her run on TV series Suits.
 

Of course, at the time, she didn't think she'd eventually exit the firm, and in a new interview with Variety is opening up about her decision to return to Hollywood.

Here's what she had to say about her complicated return to the industry:

Telling 'our story' with a new Netflix docuseries

Though she's "done" with acting, she's got a few projects in the pipeline, including a new Netflix docuseries with Oscar-nominated director Liz Garbus.
 

"It's nice to be able to trust someone with our story — a seasoned director whose work I've long admired — even if it means it may not be the way we would have told it. But that's not why we're telling it. We're trusting our story to someone else, and that means it will go through their lens," Meghan reveals of the series.
 

All other details have been kept under wraps thus far.
 

"It's interesting. My husband has never worked in this industry before. For me, having worked on Suits, it's so amazing to be around so much creative energy and to see how people work together and share their own points of view," she teases.

Trevor Noah has teased his new Netflix comedy special titled I Wish You Would.

Refunds to ticket holders of Justin Bieber's Justice World concerts were delayed by an "unexpected glitch", which has since been resolved.

Thuso Mbedu is back to the drawing board with her dreams for the future after achieving both in her latest film, The Woman King.

In a turn of events, James Corden says: "I haven't done anything wrong," following his ban from New York City's Balthazar restaurant.

Local celebrities stepped out in style at the Cruz SA Fashion Week opening party.
