“If I told you how good, you probably wouldn’t believe me,” he said, in reference to the new mum’s royal connections.

Fans of Suits loved the nod to Meghan, who shot to fame in the show and gave birth to her first son Archie in May.

Fans also speculated that the duchess would be watching and guessed at what her response to the mention would be.

Patrick Adams spoke about the reference to Meghan on Entertainment Tonight, saying it was an “obvious acknowledgement” that she’s still part of the show.

He said: “For Mike, this is just a trip to New York.

“There’s phone calls with Rachel saying goodbye and I love you, and, you know, I think there’s some obvious acknowledgment that she’s still there and a part of the show.”
