Meghan Markle is continuing to expand her starry friendship circle.
The Duchess of Sussex was spotted leaving a restaurant with actress Kimberly Williams-Paisley in Montecito, Calif., over the weekend.
The “Suits” alum was all smiles as she exited trendy Italian eatery Tre Lune on Sunday wearing ballet flats, blue jeans, a white shirt and accessorizing with a small black bag.
Meanwhile, Paisley-Williams kept it comfy and casual in a long blue dress, sneakers and sunglasses, according to photos obtained by the Daily Mail.
The restaurant is a favorite amongst the Hollywood crowd, with stars like Sofia Richie, Ellen DeGeneres and Kourtney Kardashian all previously dining there with pals.
It’s unclear when Markle, 42, first struck up a friendship with Williams-Paisley, 52. However, it’s likely the two may have met through the industry or via mutual friends as they both have an acting background.
Markle’s new gal pal is best known for her starring role in the 1991 comedy “Father of the Bride” and is also the wife of Brad Paisley. The couple met when the country singer, 51, asked the actress to star in his 2001 music video for “I’m Gonna Miss Her,” a track off his second studio album, “Part II.”
They married in 2003 and have two children together – sons William Huckleberry, born in 2007, and Jasper Warren, born in 2009.
The couple have been longtime residents of Montecito and are also reportedly friendly with DeGeneres, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom.
Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, have also remained pals with DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi. In 2023, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex even attended the pair’s wedding renewal ceremony.
As previously reported, Markle and Prince Harry relocated to Montecito in 2020 after stepping down as senior members of the royal family.
They currently reside in the charming California town with their two children – son Prince Archie, 5, and daughter Princess Lilibet, 3.
As for their professional endeavors, Markle appears to be taking a break at the moment after recently wrapping up filming for her Netflix cooking and lifestyle show.
Page Six previously reported that the show, which she began filming earlier this year, will be home-centric, focusing on food and gardening, and in a similar vein as her former lifestyle blog, “The Tig.”
The royal also announced the launch of a lifestyle brand called American Riviera Orchard earlier this year.
“She’s been working on this for over a year, and it’s all the things that are close to her heart — all the things she’s passionate about,” a source told Page Six at the time.
