"Suits" is currently on its fifth season and the upcoming Episode 8 will feature Claire's comeback. Mike and Rachel will be facing a lot of danger as Claire might just spill the big secret of the former.
According to a report by Design & Trend, "Pretty Little Liars" star Troian Bellisario will be reprising her role as Claire on the show's episode 8 entitled "Mea Culpa."Bellisario was interviewed and she dished that she will be an opposing counsel to the cases of Mike. Claire also spells trouble as it was formerly in the plot that Mike liked her before Rachel.
Bellisario shared in the interview, "It's definitely not a good thing, especially for Mike, and then also for Rachel (Meghan Markle.) When my character was first introduced it was a flashback , and she was the first girl that Mike lied to impress, pre-Rachel." In Season 4's episode 13 entitled "Fork In The Road," Claire was this girl who had a romantic interest in Mike before he became a fake lawyer at Pearson Hardman, Christianity Daily reported.
Just a flashback, Claire was a law graduate from New York University and was an intern at a legal clinic. She met Mike as he was a bike messenger. Mike wanted to impress her so he told her that he was a student at Columbia. However, it was revealed that Mike was lying to her so Claire dumped him.
Bellisario also talked about her character pointing out that Claire has gone through a lot of changes in her life and she has gained a lot of power in her come back. Claire is this person who is really smart but does not show everyone how smart she actually is. In the episode 8 of "Suits," this will be Mike's first case as a partner but he cannot meet with Claire as she knows his secret. Rachel will be seen stepping up for Mike in an attempt to keep his secret, Yibada reported.
Mike, who is played by Patrick J. Adams, is actually engaged to Bellisario in real life. "Suits" Season 5 Episode 8 will be airing this Wednesday, August 12, at 9 P.M. on USA Network.
