The future wife of Prince Harry was almost a Bond Girl, according to The Sun.

Apparently, producers loved her in Suits and short-listed her to be in Bond 25, alongside Daniel Craig, which releases in 2019. But her relationship with Harry ruled her out, as producers believed she’d be unattainable.

A film source said: “Meghan fits the role of a Bond girl perfectly. She’s glamorous and sexy and a good actress. The role more recently has gone to actresses deemed to be rising stars, and Meghan certainly was seen as that before her relationship with Harry became public. The brief was to find a glamorous rising star, specifically someone American or Canadian. Producers had narrowed down her and four other actresses on a shortlist last year with ‘Bond 25’ in mind. But the minute her relationship to Harry came to light they assumed she was out of the running so it soon became a list of four.”

They added: “Her engagement effectively spelt an end to her acting career too so that was the final blow.”
