Sarah Ferguson unexpectedly made a return to growing talks about The Gentlemen casting featuring Meghan Markle. For the past couple of days, it was reported that the Duchess of Sussex might be featured in Guy Ritchie's show. However, those were only speculations. The Gentlemen star Theo James dismissed those rumours with a witty response during an interview.

During an interview with Town & Country, the Hollywood actor joked about "a certain ex-royal" becoming a part of the series. And that former royal is none other than Sarah Ferguson. "Yes, Fergie is joining. She'll be playing my love interest," he said, adding playful remarks about the ongoing casting gossip.

"No, I think [reports of Markle joining the show] were mainly a lot of hot air. At the moment, we're just trying to get as many eyes on season two, and then season three will happen soon," Theo clarified regarding the widespread rumours circulating across entertainment media platforms over the past week.

In conversation with Extra, the actor also made light-hearted comments and brought Prince Harry into the debate with his signature humor. "No, Prince Harry is playing one of my love interests. So that's the Meghan Markle thing..." Theo said, finally putting all the widespread speculation to rest.
