What Has Eric Roberts Said About Meghan's Comeback?
Meghan's comeback will 'blow everybody's minds' says Eric Roberts.
Roberts, brother of Hollywood superstar Julia, boldly claims Meghan's comeback will "blow everybody's minds."
He said: "She will come back.
"It is time. And Meghan needs to come back to work. I feel like her whole family will support it, and she is amazing," his wife Eliza — a casting director and pal for Meghan's — added.
Eric, 69, who played shady billionaire Charles Forstman on the legal drama, developed a friendship with Meghan, 44, while shooting the hit USA Network show.
His wife Eliza believes Meghan stepped away from Suits because the Royal Family had concerns about her "very sexy" screen character, paralegal Rachel Zane.
Why Did Meghan Quit 'Suits' Role?
Meghan left her role in 'Suits' because it was 'too sexy.'
She told The Daily Mail: "It is tricky because of the monarchy. Her role in Suits was very sexy.
"Her making love with another man, that was just – they've never seen anything like that.
"She worked so hard to get there. That was just too much," Eliza said. "Women don't give up their jobs for a marriage anymore.
"I understand the intention, and she thought she'd be satisfied with doing good works in the world. But she needs to be acting.
"She is a young woman who needs to be acting."
Eliza added: "Meghan is a star. From the second you see her, she just has star quality. It doesn't matter. It was always going to happen."
'I Think She's Going To Be Fantastic'
