Who is Sarah Rafferty? Suits actress playing Donna Paulsen and Meghan Markle’s friend who attended the Royal Wedding
SARAH Rafferty is an American actress, who is best known for her role in Suits.
The star jetted into the UK to be with her good friend Meghan Markle on her wedding day, but who is she?
Who is Sarah Rafferty?
Sarah Gray Rafferty is an American actress, best known for playing Donna Roberta Paulsen on Suits.
Born on December 6, 1972, in Connecticut, US, Sarah is currently 45 years old.
She appeared in numerous TV shows in the US, including Law & Order, Six Feet Under and 8 Simple Rules, before she landed the role in Suits in 2011.
How does Sarah Rafferty know Meghan Markle?
Sarah and Meghan become close friends after meeting on the set of Suits.
Meghan famously called her her “Suits sister wife” and used to post about her on social media before she deactivated her account.
She has remained pretty quiet about the big day, but last November said: "I don't comment on my castmates' personal lives, but of course, it's very exciting. And I'm very happy for her."
Why is Sarah Rafferty not Meghan’s maid of honour?
There were rumours that Sarah would be chosen to be Meghan's right-hand girl for the big day.
Unlike Kate, who had younger sister Pippa Matthews by her side at her wedding, Meghan will be going it alone.
"Ms Markle will not have a Maid of Honour," a Buckingham Palace spokesperson told Cosmopolitan.
"She has a very close-knit group of friends and she did not want to choose one over the other.
"They have all been actively involved in helping her prepare and will be there with her to celebrate on the day."
Is Sarah Rafferty married?
Sarah Rafferty is married to Aleksanteri Olli-Pekka Seppälä, a stock research analyst.
They tied the knot in June 2001 at the Roman Catholic church of St. Mary in Greenwich, Connecticut.
Sarah and Alek have two daughters, Oona Gray (2007) and Iris Friday (2012).
