For almost a year, rumors have flown about the romance between then36-year-old actress and Britain’s 33-year-old Prince Harry—thenredheaded hell-raiser, former army captain who had completed two toursnof duty in Afghanistan, and all-around favorite royal. If Markle andnPrince Harry are indeed headed to the altar, she will become the firstnAmerican to marry into the royal family since, forcing his abdication from the throne, almost 81 years ago.nMarkle is the calm in the center of the media storm inspired by hern with the prince. The couple met in London through friends in July 2016, Markle says. Since then, media coverage of theirnromance has been so intense—and much of it so unpleasant—that PrincenHarry was moved to issue a statement asking the press and public,nessentially, to back off. They haven’t. Even have becomenInstagram stars.nMarkle, new to fame, has handled the hoopla with surprising aplomb. “Itnhas its challenges, and it comes in waves—some days it can feel morenchallenging than others,” she says. “And right out of the gate it wasnsurprising the way things changed.
But I still have this support systemnall around me, and, of course, my boyfriend’s support.”n. While arguably the most popular member of the British royal family,nPrince Harry is also the most iconoclastic.
He’s loved for having beennthe bad boy in his youth and now the regular guy of the family, for hisn10 years of army service, including his time in Afghanistan (the onlynplace he ever felt “normal,” he’s said), and in recent years for hisnphilanthropy on behalf of combat veterans.nV.F. Contributing editor Sally Bedell Smith, who, says, “Harry, who could have been the scapegrace sibling, was that for a while.” There was the widely released photo ofnhim looking tipsy at a London nightclub. There was the scuffle with anphotographer outside another London nightclub at around three A.M. Thatnresulted in the photographer’s cut lip. There was the “Colonials andnNatives” costume party of 2005, in Wiltshire, to which Harry camendressed like Nazi general Erwin Rommel, complete with desert uniform,nGerman Wehrmacht badge, and swastika armband.
A photo of the prince innthis costume landed on page one of the British tabloid The Sun. Thenpublic was outraged, and Harry apologized. More recently, cell-phonenpictures of Harry carousing with friends in Las Vegas in 2012 wentnviral. “Getting to 100 episodes is pretty surreal,” Adams says. “I nevernthought that a story about six people working in a law firm in New YorknCity would be something that would capture people’s interest all overnthe globe. I was backpacking through New Zealand a couple of years agonand stopped to help a Swedish guy who had twisted his ankle.
He lookednup at me, and his eyes went wide, and all he could talk about was hownbadly he wanted Mike and Rachel to figure things out.”nMike Ross’s relationship with Rachel Zane is one of those long,nsimmering teases that take several episodes to come to a boil, but itnwas clear from their first meeting that they were meant to be together.n“I think Mike and Rachel are a classic Romeo-and-Juliet story,” Adamsnbelieves. “They come from totally different sides of the tracks. Rachelnhas taken the path well traveled, worked hard, and followed the rules ofnthe game.
Mike is a naturally gifted, brilliant guy but has followednexactly none of the rules.”nWhen it came to casting Rachel Zane, “we needed somebody in the rolenthat was absolutely engaging, relatable, young enough, who is beautifulnin a non-traditional way, and who had an authenticity,” says BonnienHammer, chairman of NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment Group.nAaron Korsh, the show’s creator, recalls that Rachel Zane wasnparticularly challenging to cast because the role required “toughnessnand attitude while still being likable. We all looked at eachnother after Markle’s screen test like, Wow, this is the one!
Inthink it’s because Meghan has the ability to be smart and sharp butnwithout losing her sweetness.”nWhen she auditioned for the role, Markle showed up in black jeans, anplum-colored spaghetti-strap top, and heels. It suddenly occurred to hernthat for the screen test she needed to look less casual and more like anlawyer.
She dashed into an H&M and bought a little black dress forn$35. Sure enough, she was asked to change into the dress, which shenhadn’t even tried on. Thank God it fit.n“My parents had been so supportive,” she told V.F., “watching menaudition, trying to make ends meet, taking all the odds-and-ends jobs tonpay my bills. I was doing calligraphy, and I was a hostess at anrestaurant—and all those things that actors do. My father knew hownhard it is for an actor to get work, so he above all people was so proudnthat I was able to beat the odds.”nOne of the strongest bonds Prince Harry and Markle share is theirnphilanthropy. For Markle, it began at an early age. Her mother, DorianRagland, made sure that her little girl knew about the greater world andnits political and economic challenges when she was growing up in LosnAngeles.n.
How does Markle handle the tabloid nonsense about her and Harry? “I canntell you that at the end of the day I think it’s really simple,” shensays. “We’re two people who are really happy and in love. We were verynquietly dating for about six months before it became news, and I wasnworking during that whole time, and the only thing that changed wasnpeople’s perception. Nothing about me changed. I’m still the same personnthat I am, and I’ve never defined myself by my relationship.”nThe media frenzy seems to bother the prince more than it does Markle.nThe from Kensington Palace by hisncommunications secretary read, in part, “Meghan Markle has been subjectnto a wave of abuse and harassment.
Prince Harry is worried aboutnMs. Markle’s safety and is deeply disappointed that he has not been ablento protect her.” As for Markle, she prefers what the British calln“ostriching.” She says, “I don’t read any press. I haven’t even readnpress for Suits. The people who are close to me anchor me in knowing whonI am. The rest is noise.”n. Markle’s parents “crafted the world around me to make me feel like I wasn’tndifferent, but special,” as she wrote in a 2015 essay for.
As dolls in the 1980s were generally sold in sets of black and white, for Christmas one year her father bought “a black mom doll, a white dad doll, and a child in each color. My dad had taken the sets apart and customized my family.”nProblems began in the seventh grade, when she had to complete anmandatory census by checking one of four boxes: “white, black,nHispanic, or Asian.” The pale, freckled, curly-haired Markle felt thatnto choose either white or black would be a rejection of one of hernparents. Her teacher told her to check “Caucasian” because she lookednwhite, but she couldn’t. She ended up leaving the boxes unchecked. “Inleft my identity blank—a question mark, an absolute incomplete—muchnlike how I felt,” she once said.nBecause she is light-skinned and has not made an issue of beingnbi-racial—though she has embraced it—she has auditioned for white asnwell as black and Latina roles. There was widespread disbelief amongnviewers in Season Two of Suits when her black father, a high-powerednlawyer played by the charismatic actor Wendell Pierce (of Treme fame),nfirst appeared on the show—most people didn’t think her character, ornthe actress playing her, was bi-racial.nOne thing Markle noticed about how she was perceived was that “atnalmost every photo shoot they would airbrush out” her freckles. “I’venalways loved my freckles,” she now says, so when she was photographednfor V.F., she was “thrilled to work with Peter Lindbergh becausenhe rarely retouches and he believes in such little makeup.
I gave him anbig hug and said, ‘I am so excited to work with you because I know wenwill finally be able to see my freckles!’ ”n. Bonnie Hammer expressed her concern about Markle’s sudden, internationalnfame. “She isn’t somebody who was already a celebrity, who hadnpaparazzi tracking her day and night in Hollywood or New York ornToronto.
She’s going through something that should be the most gloriousnand open time in her life, to be able to share, but because ofncircumstances, that’s very hard.”nMarkle credits the rock-solid support from her close friends for helpingnto sustain her. The international tennis great Serena Williams is one of those friends. The two met about seven years ago at the Super Bowl. “Her personality justnshines,” Serena said about Markle, who asked her advice on how tonhandle some of the more extreme results of fame, such as paparazzinshowing up at her house and chasing her. “I told her, ‘You’ve got to benwho you are, Meghan.
You can’t hide.’ ”nAnother close friend is the Bahrain-born fashion designer Misha Nonoo.nThey met in Miami through a mutual friend and immediately bonded. “Herngreatest strength is her compassion for others,” says Nonoo. “Much ofnthe work she does is unseen by the public.”nAnother close friend is the actress Abigail Spencer, who has been an Suits cast member. When asked why she thinks Harry was drawn to Markle,nSpencer says, “She’s got warm elegance, though her style is hard to pinndown. It’s classy and timeless.
When you’re talking to her, you feelnlike you’re the only person on the planet. And it’s just wonderful tonsee her so in love.”n. Lawrence is also loyal to her close friends outside the industry andnmakes time to celebrate their personal milestones. “All of my friendsnare getting married and having babies,” she says, revealing one rolenthat she will absolutely never reprise. “Weddings rock, but I willnnever be a bridesmaid again,” says the four-time survivor. “Therenneeds to be a bridesmaids’ union.
It’s horrendous. If anyone asks menagain, I’m going to say, ‘No. That part of my life is over. I appreciatenthe ask.’ If I do ever get married, I don’t think I will havenbridesmaids. How can I rank my friends?”nNot that she would have the time to plan a wedding if it were on hernradar.
Lawrence—whose longest relationship was with X-Men co-starnNicholas Hoult—currently seems more focused on professional, rathernthan romantic, collaborations. As for children, Lawrence’s maternalnfocus right now is her small brown dog, Pippi Longstocking. LastnChristmas, Lawrence’s mother commissioned a portrait of Pippi from an14-year-old fan of Lawrence’s in New Zealand. At first, the actress hungnthe portrait in her Los Angeles home only when her mom visited beforenrealizing, “Fuck it.
I am the person who has an acrylic painting of herndog,” and proudly showcased it above her fireplace. “I am a psychoticndog mom in a way that I am genuinely embarrassed about. If I could putnher inside me and give birth to her I would.” Because of this, Lawrencenjokes that having actual children “would be dangerous. My kids would benincredibly jealous because I would still be way more attentive to Pippinthan I would to them.”nVIDEO: Jennifer Lawrence Is a Surprisingly Good Mimen.
These days, Pippi and Lawrence are constantly on the move—recentlyntraveling together to Montreal to film the Aronofsky movie with MichellenPfeiffer, Ed Harris, and Javier Bardem. Lawrence had been wanting tonwork with the Black Swan filmmaker, so when he pitched her the project,nstill without a script, she immediately accepted. (“He is anvisionary,” she says.) It was in Montreal that she absentmindedly fednPippi a sparerib, which required an emergency vet run.nThis fall, Lawrence flew to Africa to shadow photojournalist LynseynAddario as she documented South Sudanese refugees crossing into Uganda.nAlthough the experience offered her a rare veil of anonymity (whennintroducing herself to a U.N. Worker as Jennifer, he replied, “Ahhh,nlike Jennifer Lopez”), she was haunted by her uselessness. “The worstnfeeling about being there was that I wasn’t helping anybody,” she saysnof the humanitarian crisis. “I was doing a character study.” (Lawrencenis also a producer on It’s What I Do, the Spielberg film based onnAddario’s memoir.) Lawrence, who has donated generously to a number ofncharities (including $2 million to a children’s hospital in hernhometown this year), said she found solace in vowing to visit again in anmore active role.nAnd Pippi joined Lawrence in Atlanta, Georgia, for Passengers, anbig-budget project she tried, at first, to resist. “My plan was to do anfew more years of indies and remind people and myself how I started,”nLawrence says, referring to Winter’s Bone, her 2010 breakout, whichnearned her her first Oscar nod, at 19.
Then she read the screenplay, bynJon Spaihts (Ridley Scott’s Prometheus). “I wanted to say no, but Inkept coming back to it.”nDirected by the Oscar-nominated Morten Tyldum ( The Imitation Game), thenreportedly $150 million movie stars Lawrence and Chris Pratt as anjournalist and engineer who leave their earthly lives to journey to andistant colony. Due to a mechanical malfunction, both characters wake upnabout 30 years into the 120-year voyage and struggle to survive whilenhurtling through space. The co-stars share several love scenes thatnspark—an on-screen electricity Lawrence says was easily summoned,nsince her co-star “could have chemistry with a cactus.” Lawrence gotnalong with Pratt’s wife (Anna Faris, star of the CBS sitcom Mom) asnwell, appearing on her top-rated podcast, Unqualified, and forming an“spin-off friendship” with her. “I think women can sense if you arenthe kind of woman who is going to run off with their husband,” Lawrencenexplains.
“I don’t think I give off that vibe. I give off the ‘Pleasenlike me!’ desperation. Which is not threatening.”nAs for Pratt, she says, “He is a ray of sunshine. We had to have a talknabout his good moods at four in the morning, when he was encouraging thencrew and I’m like the Grinch.
I came on set like, ‘No more smiling. Nonmore dancing.’ ” Pratt laughed when I raised the subject. “Jen isnreally tuned in to her emotions,” he told me. “If she’s mad, she’llnlet you know. She is very clear in her communication.
I found itnstartlingly refreshing. It’s nice to work with somebody and know exactlynwhere they stand. She’s a boss. It’s pretty awesome.”n.
It helps that, in a culture measured in clicks and likes, friends andnfollowers, she stays off social media, her only Web footprint being thenobligatory Facebook fan page. Despite her efforts, she is stillnpop-culture catnip and top gossip fodder for the glossies. She doesn’tnread the rumors (“I try to just live in a nice little imaginaryncocoon”), but her relatives do—and buy into each tabloid twist withnthe rest of America.
“My brother asked me the other day, ‘Everybodynonline thinks you and Amy Schumer aren’t friends anymore,’ ” shensays, annoyed. “And I said, ‘Oh, really, because everything online isnalways true.’ ” (For the record, she and Schumer are still friends andnare planning on starring, once their schedules relax, as sisters in ancomedy they wrote together.) Her own online interests skew more medicalnthan movie-star, and she tends to fall down Google rabbit holesnsearching for “funny-looking bacteria.” (“I’m sure you do that allnthe time,” she deadpans.) Lawrence says the first book she read wasncalled How My Body Works, and she requested autopsy books for her lastnbirthday. Despite her lifelong curiosity, she says she has always beenn“too emotional” to actually consider medicine as a career. But itndoesn’t seem coincidental that she found another way to studynhumans—by playing them on-screen.nBut it is not just her curiosity and one-in-seven-billion charisma thatnrenders her Hollywood’s rare double-barreled movie star—able tonattract mass audiences and critical recognition. Francis Lawrence, whondirected most of the Hunger Games series (and is not related tonJennifer), has his own theory about Lawrence’s superpowers. “Jen is thenmost in-tune person I’ve ever met,” he said. “It’s uncanny, but herngift is that she can read people so quickly and use that on-screen.
Inwould hate to date her because you would never be able to get away withnanything.”n“She has unbelievable clarity,” Stone echoed. “She can witness ansituation or meet a person and see through the entire thing almostninstantly. It’s stunning.”nWhen I bring up this compliment, Lawrence waves it off. She has andifferent way of describing her depth of perception. “I’m a goodnbullshit detector,” she says, digging her manicured nails into the bowlnof popcorn sitting on the table between us.
A waiter instantaneouslynappears and whisks it away without explanation. “Ever since I was ankid, I was always calling shit out,” she says, an eye still on thenwaiter, who returns with a new bowl of popcorn and disappears again.n“See, they were totally aware that was stale!” Lawrence crows, hernsilent hunch proven correct.

She plunges her hand back into the bowl.n“I knew!”n. Last August, Louis-Dreyfus and costar Tony Hale were deep in the muggy San Fernando Valley, sweltering in a prop airplane that lost air-conditioning every time the cameras rolled. Louis-Dreyfus had just returned to work after her 11-month break for cancer treatment.n“It was so unbelievably hot,” recalls Hale, who plays Meyer’s sycophantic bagman, Gary, of shooting the memorable opening moments of Veep’s seventh season. (Hale, who has previously won two Emmys for outstanding supporting actor in a comedy in the role, is nominated again this year.) Meyer and Gary open the door of the airplane prepared to greet a throng of supporters to find only an empty tarmac. Once again the Meyer campaign screwed up and sent the press, the crowds, and her prep team to the wrong Iowa town.
Meyer, in the season’s first crescendo of bratty frustration, hurls her phone onto the runway.n“We’re doing it. And then there’s this idea,” says Mandel. “What if Tony chases after the phone once she’s thrown it.
It would be very easy to go, ‘We’ve got it. Let’s move on.’ ”nLouis-Dreyfus, however, pushed for more.n“We were just absolutely giddy,” Hale says of the shoot.

“Julia described being back on set as kind of an elixir. It’s like so much of her mental energy had gone into fighting cancer, now it could be redirected. What a gift that was.”nWhile by outward appearances Louis-Dreyfus was fully back, she tells me at lunch that she was not yet in fighting shape when she returned to set. Still, she couldn’t bear to stay away any longer, especially with a cast and crew of 200 on hold. “I hated the idea of all these people waiting for me,” she says. “That made me really anxious.” So rather than postpone her return date, she got on the plane.nLouis-Dreyfus’s diagnosis and treatment played out publicly, making her return to Veep all the more charged.

In September 2017 she chose to share her cancer diagnosis with her nearly 1 million Twitter followers in a post that read, in part, “One in eight women get breast cancer. Today, I’m the one.”nWhile Louis-Dreyfus was relieved that she could somewhat control the messaging and use her bully pulpit to talk about the inequities of our current health care system, she didn’t anticipate just how intense the reaction would be.
