Meghan admitted in an Esquire interview that she took the job “while I was auditioning to try to make ends meet.”

She recalled, “I would end up standing up there forever in these terribly uncomfortable and inexpensive five-inch heels just waiting for someone to pick my number so I could go and sit down.”

Meghan would eventually be best known for her role in legal drama TV series “Suits,” in which she starred from 2011 to 2018. She married Prince Harry in May 2018.  Niña V. Guno /ra
