Vintage Meghan Markle for Tostitos, Everyone!

Before she was preparing to marry into the British royal family—before she scored her gig on Suits, for that matter—Meghan Markle was just an aspiring actress out here trying to build that CV. Hence, this Tostitos commercial.

The video was uploaded to YouTube in 2009, so presumably it aired around that time. HuffPo recounts some of Markle’s other roles:

She was a Hallmark TV movie darling, a FedEx delivery girl in “Horrible Bosses,” and ― of course ― Rachel Zane on “Suits.” The 36-year-old was also once a “Deal or No Deal” briefcase model from 2006-2007.

A short clip of her time on the latter show circulated just after Prince Harry and Markle announced their engagement. In the video, you can see host Howie Mandel refer to Markle by name….

I will genuinely never recover from how much this whole thing resembles a romance novel.
