In a recent episode of Chicks in the Office, actor Rick Hoffman opened up about the much-talked-about viral moment during Meghan Markle's wedding to Prince Harry in 2018. Hoffman, best known for his role in Suits, explained the reason behind his 'awful face' caught on camera that day. As it turns out, it all had to do with a rather unpleasant odor.
Hoffman revealed that he has a heightened sensitivity to smells and, during the wedding, he started to detect something foul in the air. In an attempt to alleviate the smell, he covered his face, mentioning that he uses a coconut vanilla moisturizer which he hoped would help counteract the unpleasant scent. Trying to divert attention from his goofy expression, he spoke about his antics with fellow Suits star Sarah Rafferty, who reprimanded him to 'cut it out.'
But it wasn't until after the offensive smell hit Hoffman's nostrils that he decided to move away from the scene, not wanting his friends to associate the odor with him. He jokingly shared that Meghan Markle herself, also from the Suits cast, was aware of his sensitivity towards hygiene and found it amusing.
Last month, the Suits cast reunited for various events, including an appearance at the 2024 Golden Globes and an e.l.f. Cosmetics Super Bowl ad. Exciting news also emerged this month, confirming that a Suits spinoff called Suits L.A. would be getting a pilot at NBCUniversal. The original series, which ran for nine seasons from 2011 to 2019, captivated audiences with its legal drama and charismatic characters.
During an interview at the Golden Globes, actor Patrick J. Adams, who played Mike Ross in Suits, shared that the new spinoff was still in its early stages. He even hinted at a potential plotline involving Meghan Markle's character Rachel and his character Mike, saying they might come to L.A. to fix something. Adams playfully acknowledged Meghan's current popularity and teased that he would share more details later.
The upcoming Suits project, Suits: L.A., will feature a fresh cast and follow the story of Ted Black, a former federal prosecutor, who must embrace a role he once despised. Production for the spinoff is set to begin in late March in Vancouver, Canada, under the guidance of showrunner Aaron Korsh. Adams expressed his eagerness to reprise his role if he were to receive the call, emphasizing his love for the show, the character, and the people he worked with.
As we eagerly await the debut of Suits L.A., it's exciting to see how the spinoff will shape up and whether any familiar faces will make an appearance. Until then, fans of the original series can reminisce about the unforgettable moments, including Rick Hoffman's viral wedding face and the incredible chemistry shared by the Suits cast.
