All eyes are on Prince Harry and American actress Meghan
Markle as they prepare to tie the knot on May 19. The Big Day will be another
sensation in the history of British royal weddings not only because the
bride-to-be is a commoner or because the couple is having lemon elderflower
instead of the customary fruitcake. Rather, Markle says she is delivering a
speech at the reception—a privilege often reserved to the most important men of
the event: the groom, the father of the bride, and the best man.
A staunch advocate of gender equality, Markle has never
been shy about her views despite knowing that she is marrying into British
Royalty, which isn’t allowed to speak publicly about politics. Royal watchers
may find her defiance of protocol shocking, yet fans of the actress aren’t
strangers to her strong personality and feminism in her fictional role as
Rachel Zane in television legal drama Suits.
Here are just a few times Markle as Rachel Zane has stood
up for herself in a sea of ambitious and powerful men:
Not Daddy’s Little Girl
The daughter of a skilled lawyer and law firm name partner,
Robert Zane, Rachel would rather support herself financially through hard work
than take advantage of her father’s wealth.
Too Smart for a Paralegal
Rachel may be a paralegal for almost six years, but she is
not afraid to show that she’s a lot better than most associates in the
firm. Just having her own office is
proof that her abilities are recognized by the bosses.
No Easy Target
There’s no excuse for men to flirt with a woman they fancy
in a professional setting. Rachel makes sure she sends the message clearly like
when she called out Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams) during his orientation for
hitting on her and ogling the whole time. She even keeps a drawer of staplers
to keep tabs on how many men have flirted with her at work.
Femme Fatale
If she does want to reciprocate a man’s interests, Rachel
can be very bold and might even make the first move.
