Shenae Grimes-Beech doesn’t remember’ Meghan Markle guest starring on ‘90210’: Just a ‘blip’

Meghan Markle’s NSFW “90210” cameo didn’t make an impression on Shenae Grimes-Beech.

The 33-year-old, who played Annie Wilson on the CW show, admitted to “Scheananigans With Scheana Shay” podcast listeners Friday that she doesn’t recall the Duchess of Sussex’s time on set.

“I don’t think any of us really remember at all,” Grimes-Beech said of the 2008 scene. “It was such a blip on our radar.”

She explained that the Season 1 moment was “one scene at one time” amid “119 episodes.”

The “Degrassi: The Next Generation” alum noted that while she “can’t remember all of the guest stars that came on,” having the Duchess of Sussex, 42, as a guest star is “pretty iconic” and “pretty cool” looking back.

Notably, Grimes-Beech and Markle were in the scene together, along with Dustin Mulligan, who played Ethan.

In the now-viral clip, Annie waved at Ethan before realizing he was receiving oral sex from Markle’s character, Wendy.

The episode aired two years after the royal family member left “Deal or No Deal.” She would go on to star in “Suits” from 2011 to 2018.

In his January memoir, “Spare,” Prince Harry confessed to watching his now-wife’s sex scenes on the legal drama.

“I’d witnessed her and a castmate mauling each other in some sort of office or conference room,” the former military pilot, 38, wrote, adding that he “didn’t need to see such things” and needed “electric-shock therapy” to get them out of his head.

“Watching some of her love scenes” with co-star Patrick J. Adams was a “mistake,” Harry concluded.

Adams, 41, attended the duo’s May 2018 wedding with his wife, Troian Bellisario.

As a member of the royal family, Markle stopped acting — but “Suits” was added to Netflix in June and broke streaming records.

She and the Duke of Sussex signed a $100 million agreement in 2021 to create shows and other content with Netflix, and their “Harry & Meghan” documentary series aired on the platform in December 2022.

While Netflix said last month that they “value [their] partnership” with the duo, Harry and Markle did lose their $20 million Spotify contract in June.

Amid rumors that they are also struggling in their marriage and “taking time apart,” the pair put on a united front Wednesday in matching outfits. They enjoyed a date night at Italian hotspot Tre Lune the following day.
