MEGHAN MARKLE WAS A FAILURE IN HOLLYWOOD

Meghan Markle was a "failure" as an actress before landing the role of Rachel Zane in "Suits" in 2011, Princess Diana's biographer claimed.

Andrew Morton gave the Duchess of Sussex, 37, a series of backhanded compliments about her determination in a new interview.

"Let's not forget that, for ten years, her budding career as an actress was something of a failure," Morton said in the documentary "Meghan & The Markles: A Family At War" (via The Sun).

"For almost a decade, Meghan auditioned for parts in movies, ads and gameshows."

"She was kind of, at 30, over the hill, in Hollywood terms, when she got this gig in 'Suits,'" he said.

"The fact that she kept on going on, the fact that she went to all these rehearsals and auditions without the prospect of work showed that kind of determination that her father imbued in her and that has propelled her to where she is today, "he added.
