There were far fewer Meghan Markle fans posting on social media about her reason for not being at the Golden Globes, but there were some who defended her reported decision to not attend the event by choice. "Every interviewer was talking about her[;] why wouldn't they invite her. But for [Meghan] she knew by just being there it would be overshadowed taking away from the other cast. Everyone would be talking about her and not them," one person posted on X.

Even though Meghan wasn't at the Globes, she still got talked about. We found out from Gina Torres that her "Suits" co-stars don't have her number, so she's not in the cast's group text, which was another reason some people thought that Meghan hadn't actually been invited to the awards ceremony. Then Jo Koy made a joke about Meghan and Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex in his monologue — it was about as well received as his joke about Swift, which is to say badly.

Interest in "Suits" has skyrocketed since it started streaming on Netflix in June 2023. For over three months, it was the number one most-watched streaming show since its debut. Meghan commented on the show's renewed popularity at Variety's "Power of Women" event in November 2023, saying, "Good shows are everlasting."
