Meghan Markle Reportedly ‘Stuffed’ Bra On ‘Deal Or No Deal,’ Co-Star Says
Meghan Markle was reportedly asked to stuff her bra while she was on “Deal or No Deal” years ago.
Her co-star, Tameka Jacobs, opened up about her time on the show during an interview with The Sun. She said that the producers of the show asked the briefcase ladies to wear so-called “tit tape” to hold their breasts in place during the filming.
“Meghan’s aspirations were to win an Oscar or be on Broadway, so if you’re in a mini dress, high heels, with your boobs taped together and pushed up when what you want to do is serious acting, then it’s tough,” she said.
Jacobs also said that she and all the other women that held briefcase on the show were under so much pressure. They were not allowed to pack on the pounds, and a producer would always check their physical appearance and monitor it on a daily basis.
The briefcase ladies whose breasts weren’t that big were also asked to stuff their bra with foam. Jacobs added that all of the briefcase ladies got dressed in the same room, and the Duchess of Sussex never seemed self-conscious about her appearance. Jacobs said that Markle was not one to parade inside the room in just her underwear because she was one of the shy ones.
And even though they weren’t allowed to gain weight, Markle always downed a slice of pizza or two and never packed on more pounds.
Despite everything that the briefcase ladies had to go through, they still found enjoyment during their time on the show.
Markle joined the reality TV show in 2006, and she was responsible for holding and opening a briefcase that featured a certain amount of money on it. Prior to working on the NBC show, Markle also had a job in the U.S. embassy, but she gave it up after meeting a manager from Hollywood at a party.
She, later on, landed the lead role in the USA Network drama “Suits” as Rachel Zane.
