When the cast and crew of Suits, including Prince Harry's soon-to-be wife Meghan Markle, were filming the final scenes of Season 7 in Toronto last week, security was tighter than ever. The location was a closely guarded secret, the sets were blacked out, and call sheets were only handed out on a need-to-know basis.
But as it turns out, the extreme security measures weren’t just about protecting the season finale or Meghan’s final appearance on the show from leaks. No, Prince Harry had another secret up his sleeve. He used the occasion to stage an epic engagement party for him and his bride-to-be. And who better to help him plan it than Meghan’s co-stars and close friends from Suits?
“Everyone on set knew about Meghan and Harry’s engagement and wanted to do something special to celebrate it, tying it into her farewell bash,” a source close to the set told Woman’s Day. “Meghan was initially worried that word might get out about the secret engagement party, but she was reassured by the fact that her departure from the show provided the perfect cover.”

The Heartfelt Farewell
“The Suits cast and crew really pulled out all the stops in their planning,” an insider revealed. But it wasn’t all about partying.
