Meghan Markle can be still spotted on screen, whether it’s in old Hallmark Channel movies or during a Suits marathon. But now the Duchess could be returning to TV in an unseen 'raunchy' pilot filmed almost a decade ago.

Before the actress became a Royal Family member, she appeared in the Comedy Central pilot The Boys and Girls Guide to Getting Down.

The show bills itself as a “somewhat outrageous” guide with “helpful tips about which substances should not be mixed, how to approach potential hook-ups, avoid undesirables and basically have a good time without completely destroying yourself.”

It sounds almost as risque as her blink and you’ll miss it appearance on the 90210 reboot.

New Girl star Max Greenfield appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden, where he discussed The Girls and Boys Guide to Getting Down pilot he shot with the Duchess in 2011, alongside Adam Pally and former America’s Next Top Model and current Real Housewives of Atlanta star Eva Marcille.

It was filmed after Markle's Deal or No Deal briefcase-toting days, but before her Suits stardom.

Max, who is preparing to reprise his role in the upcoming Veronica Mars reboot, said he recently received an email telling him the pilot had been bought and someone was planning to re-release it.

“Meghan and I really didn’t connect after that or during that. Look, had I known, I maybe would have played my cards a little differently,” Max joked.

Unfortunately, Max didn’t get a royal wedding invite, though his host and interviewer James Corden did.

During Max's appearance, Corden confirmed the royal couple didn't have a wedding registry - perhaps someone can send her a DVD of her pilot appearance as a belated wedding gift?
