A day afterUSA announced that Meghan Markle and Patrick J Adams are officially leaving the show at the end of this season that debuts on March 28th, they announced that Katherine Heigl is joining the show for its 8th season which begins filming in April. They revealed that she will playing “Samantha Wheeler, a talented new partner at Pearson Specter Litt who challenges the status quo and will either become the firm’s greatest ally…or most powerful enemy.”
Heigl is second person to join the legal drama, who also starred on last season’s failed show Doubt. Dule Hill co-starred with her on the CBS legal drama that was pulled after just 2 episodes. Which makes you wonder what they are thinking?
I like Heigl, but she is very polarizing. With Suits losing two of its beloved characters, you would think they would want to get someone that would make people want to tune in and not tune out. People tune in for Hill, who has already proven himself on Suits, but I do not think that Heigl can do the same. Which makes me think that the next season of Suits might be its last. Unless they give Louis Litt (Rick Hoffman) and Gretchen (Aloma Wright) more scenes together. I love their pairing!
USA announced today that Suits’ second half of the 7th season will debut on March 28th, and season 8 will air sometime after that. Only thing is that not all of the cast will be back for it. As we know Meghan Markle retired from acting because she is marrying Prince Harry, and now it has been confirmed that her TV fiance’ Patrick J Adams is also leaving the show.
He posted a message on Instagram thanking the fans, and did an interview with The Hollywood Reporter explaining why he is leaving. A lot has changed in his life since the legal drama debuted and the biggest change is that he got married to Troian Bellisario. He says that he wants to spend more time with her. Suits tapes in Canada, and his wife lives in Los Angeles. He also feels that his character has done all he can, especially now that he is a lawyer.
I still wonder how and why the show is going to go on without him. His character was the main one on the show. Without him, it will feel like a much different show. One I hope we can still enjoy.
This Sunday at 7p, GSN is going to air Cover Story: Meghan Markle, The Prince and the Game Show Model. The documentary will feature several exclusive interviews about the future Mrs Prince Harry including one with her half sister. Samantha Markle told them that she is not estranged from her younger sister, only by distance. She also talks about what it was like growing up with an interracial family and how they did not see it that way.
When it comes to May nuptials, she said, “I never for one minute thought I would not be at her wedding,” adding, “And I would do whatever I had to do get there.” Hopefully, she will be invited to the big day.

Before Meghan Markle was a huge advocate, she was a little advocate whose advocacy landed her first television appearance on Nick News. Seeing how passionate she was 11 in that 1993 news report, proves she is going to make a great Duchess.
Patrick J Adams shared a photo of himself in what appears to be a hospital room with his wife, Troian Bellisario, nervously looking over him and said, “50cc’s. Cute. Stat.” Does that mean he could not handle that his TV fiancee, Meghan Markle, went to get him milk and never came back because she got engaged to the Prince of England? Or something else happened to the Suits star? Or could it be that he is a filming a scene for a movie? We do not know, but we do hope he is better soon.
