The Duchess of Sussex has reportedly turned down a special guest appearance at next month's Emmy Awards.



The 37-year-old former actress was asked to attend the glamorous showbiz event as a way of bidding farewell to her role in 'Suits' and life in Hollywood, but it's believed she's "politely declined" the invitation because the prestigious event doesn't fit with her new royal role.



A source told The Sun newspaper: "We had hoped Meghan would attend as a way of saying goodbye to her 'Suits' fans and colleagues. Show executives and NBC had offered Harry and her an invitation to celebrate with the biggest stars around, meet her showbiz friends and even present an honour. But Meghan is not attending."



The brunette beauty starred in the legal drama series as Rachel Zane from 2011 until 2017 when she announced that she was giving up her acting career to focus on more "important" causes.
