Is there anything about Meghan Markle that doesn’t warrant investigation? Between her dabbling in horology and her constant tabloid headlines, it seems like she can’t go a week without making news. Now, a new claim has emerged from her *Suits* days. Did Meghan Markle wear her own jewelry on set? Was it a harmless flex, or a low-stakes embellishment?
According to Meghan herself, she wore her own personal jewelry on *Suits*—rings, bracelets, charms, and even family heirlooms, such as her grandmother’s charm bracelet and a Signet ring. This was all back in 2013, long before Harry entered the picture. Meghan told *Marie Claire*, "All the jewelry that I wear on the show is my own personal jewelry and family heirlooms." It’s a touching detail, but as we dig deeper, some cracks begin to appear.
For one, pieces like the JNA Terrell necklaces worn on screen were reportedly custom-made for *Suits*. So, the claim about wearing family heirlooms might be more of a strategic embellishment to make her seem more relatable. But there’s more. In 2015, Meghan gushed to *Hello!* magazine about splurging on a Cartier Tank watch when *Suits* was renewed for its third season. "I totally splurged and bought the two-tone version," she said, adding that it was engraved with the words "2 MM from MM," intending it to one day be passed down to her daughter.
However, those in the know wouldn’t exactly call it a French Tank watch—Cartier's iconic style. Calling it a "French Tank" sounds more like something you'd hear in a late-night infomercial for a chic new line of armored vehicles. It’s a glaring mistake for watch collectors, raising the question: Was Meghan innocently unaware of the specifics of her luxury items, or was she pretending to know more than she did?
Then there’s the engraving, "2 MM from MM." How very "main character" of her. Typically, heirlooms don’t come with self-inscriptions declaring their emotional significance. Perhaps the allure of a personalized Cartier got the best of her—or maybe she was just practicing for the day when the world would know her initials by heart. Either way, it seems a bit much for a "family heirloom."
What about the idea that Meghan might have acquired jewelry specifically to wear on *Suits* and somehow kept it afterward? It’s not out of the realm of possibility. Was she subtly hinting to designers that they could get free publicity if they sent her some pieces? “Don’t worry about the costume department, I’ve got the jewelry covered!” Sure, it sounds like an easy way to upgrade her wardrobe while boosting her own accessories collection.
In typical *Suits* style, maybe Meghan treated those jewelry pieces like party favors—a little thank you gift as she left the set each night. Freebies for a rising star? Not unheard of. The marketing trick, often called "merching," involves borrowing pieces under the guise of promotion and then conveniently keeping them.
And then there’s Meghan’s supposed multilingual prowess. She’s claimed to be fluent in French—until, that is, a film crew in Montreal started speaking the language, and she was left out in the cold. Tom Bower’s book *Revenge* even suggested that she was "utterly pissed off" when she couldn’t keep up in a conversation after eight years of French study. Later, she adjusted the claim to four years. Which is it? When all else fails, she probably thought, just say "Bonjour" and hope for the best.
So, what’s the verdict? Did Meghan Markle steal jewelry from the *Suits* set? We may never know. But between the Cartier Tank mix-up, the curious case of the supposed heirlooms, and her multilingual misadventures, one thing is clear: Meghan has a knack for making every detail about herself just a little too perfect—or perfectly exaggerated.
