“This is a massive moment for Meghan and signifies a return to doing what she truly loves,” a source from the Amazon MGM Studios production told the outlet on Wednesday, adding that the mom of two “has been swamped with offers but this one felt right.”

“It is Meghan’s way of gently putting her toe back in the water and seeing how she enjoys being back on set,” the insider continued.

In 2017, amid her historic engagement to Prince Harry, Markle addressed her decision to step back from her work in Hollywood — which included roles in “Remember Me” and “Horrible Bosses,” among others — to focus on royal life.

“It’s a new chapter, right?” she said of leaving her role on “Suits” while looking ahead to a new life.

“I’ve ticked this box, and I feel very proud of the work I’ve done there, and now it’s time to work with [Harry] as a team,” she added.

The network behind “Suits” released their own statement in support of Markle’s decision.

“From all of us at USA Network and Universal Cable Productions, we want to send our most heartfelt congratulations to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry on their engagement,” the November 2017 statement read.

“Meghan has been a member of our family for seven years and it has been a joy to work with her,” they continued. “We want to thank her for her undeniable passion and dedication to ‘Suits,’ and we wish her the very best.”

Markle, 44, made her final appearance on the Season 7 finale of the legal drama series in April 2018 — a month before she tied the knot with Harry in a lavish UK ceremony.

In 2020, The “With Love, Meghan” personality and her husband quit their duties as working members of the royal family, and subsequently moved to Southern California.

They’ve since welcomed son Prince Archie, 6, and Princess Lilibet, 4, whom they’re raising in their lavish Montecito, Calif. mansion.
