Meghan Markle laughs about life before joining Royal Family with Ellen DeGeneres in first talk-show appearance in decade

The former “Suits” star recalled how different her drive into the show was from her former acting days, when security guards would tell her to break a leg.

And she couldn’t stop giggling when remembering how she used to have to climb into her old banger through the boot – because you couldn’t access it from the driver’s door.

She told Ellen: “I would park at Gate 3 and scoot on over, and what was so nice was that the security guards here would always say, ‘Break a leg, we hope you get it!’ So the drive in today was very different.

“I think they probably said it to everybody. That’s how nice they were.”

Ellen went on to point out that Meghan drove to auditions in a “very special car.”

Markle laughs, “Yes, it had a life of its own. I had this very old Ford Explorer Sport and at a certain point the key stopped working on the driver’s side, so you couldn’t get yourself in through the door.

“After auditions I would park at the back of the parking lot and I would open the trunk and climb in, then pull it shut behind me and crawl over all my seats to get out. That’s how I would come to and fro.”
