The show is a spin-off from Guy Ritchie’s blockbuster film of the same name, which tells the story of an American drug lord looking to sell his cannabis empire in England.
There had previously been speculation that the Duchess of Sussex was in talks for a role in the show, but her name was not announced among the cast.
Meghan, the wife of the King’s second son, Harry, made her name as an actress on the US legal drama Suits.
She recently returned to acting for the first time in nearly a decade in a cameo as herself in the upcoming comedy Close Personal Friends, starring Lily Collins and Brie Larson.
