McCormick said: “I think returning to Suits would be a good move for Meghan because it anchors her to a successful television series.
“Being directly involved and associated with projects that are positively viewed is terrific for her image and can also insulate her a bit when facing public criticism.”
Speaking to The Mirror, he added: “Meghan should be grateful for this opportunity and make it a point to be kind and charming to everyone down to the production assistants on this program.”
He noted Meghan could ask for more money but a higher demand could cause significant issues for the Duchess.
McCormick added: “Because Meghan’s profile has risen considerably since her previous run, I think she should negotiate a healthy salary increase but, not get greedy.
“If she asks for too much money and the deal falls apart, it will hurt her reputation.”
Meghan Markle reportedly pocketed £37,000 per episode during her time on Suits – with over 100 episodes under her belt, her annual salary was around £333,000. She still receives royalties from the show due to her contract.
PR guru Mayah Riaz thinks it could be a smart move for Meghan to return to Suits.
Chatting about how much cash Meghan could rake in from a Suits spinoff, Riaz said: “In terms of her fee, given Meghan’s increased profile since leaving Suits, it is reasonable to expect that her asking price would be significantly higher than her previous salary.”
She hinted that the actress could ask for a fee between 300,000-300,000−400,000 (£235,000-£314,000) per episode.
The extra income could be just what Meghan and Harry need, as one expert suggests they are facing money troubles.
Royal writer Tom Bower highlighted how the couple has “no new income streams, no new companies”.
Speaking to Closer magazine, he added: “Everything they’ve attempted to do to relaunch themselves I think in the end has been utterly unsuccessful and has failed.”
