With the upcoming royal wedding to Prince Harry, Meghan Markle definitely doesn't need to rent out her Toronto home anymore. She'll be living in a cottage at Kensington Palace after all! However her former rental is now on the market for $1.395 million, according to Realtor. The three-bedroom home was the soon-to-be royal's crash pad while filming Suits. With a lovely backyard for kicking back during the summer and a cute little kitchen, we have a feeling that the actress had quite a fun time in her Canadian home. Click ahead to explore the space.

In case you didn't know, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry just got married at St George's Chapel in Windsor.
And now that the ceremony and procession is over, it's time for the most important part: the cake.
Acclaimed London baker Claire Ptak of Violet Cakes gave us a sneak peak yesterday of the process it takes to make a cake for 600 people - and Kensington Palace have just revealed the magnificent result.
The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle tied the knot with Prince Harry at Windsor Castle, St. George's Chapel. She arrived at the venue in a fabulous royal wedding dress, designed by Clare Waight Keller.
The royal couple exchanged vows as Dean of Windsor asked if there was any reason Prince Harry and Meghan Markle should not marry. He then turned to the couple and asked, "Harry, will you take Meghan to be your wife? Will you love her, comfort her, honor and protect her, and, forsaking all others, be faithful to her as long as you both shall live?" "I will," he said, as the church giggled. He asked the same to Meghan and she, too, said, "I will."
Prince Harry gave a peck to Meghan Markle on the lips and the couple showed their love to the whole world.

SAMANTHA ATTACKED WITH QUESTIONS AND ACCUSATION AGAINST HER,DURING HER INTERVIEW
The Royal Wedding has taken another huge dramatic turn on the same day Meghan's dad was taken into surgery for a major heart operation. The bride-to-be's half sister Samantha Grant, 52, is now reportedly in hospital too after suffering a broken ankle and fractured knee. Entertainment website TMZ reports Samantha’s boyfriend told them the couple have had a "confrontation" with the paparazzi. He reportedly claimed they were driving in Florida when a photographer veered in front of them trying to take a picture, forcing the couple to swerve out of the way and hit a concrete barrier. TMZ states: “He says Samantha hit the windshield and fell to the floor mat. Samantha, who has MS, was unable to life herself up. “He says her foot was twisted backward.
“He drove Samantha to the E.R. where doctors are treating her.” This comes as Markle's half-sister launched a scathing attack on the US actress just days before the Royal Wedding. Samantha said Meghan, who will marry Prince Harry on Saturday, had no right to tell her not to speak about the family affairs. It comes just a day after Piers Morgan slammed Meghan, calling her a "little vulture" for constantly speaking about the Royal Wedding and trashing Meghan.
