Theo James, star of Netflix's 'The Gentlemen,' playfully denied persistent rumors linking Meghan Markle to the series' third season. When asked about a potential royal co-star, James quipped that Sarah Ferguson would be his love interest, before clarifying the speculation was "hot air."

While James dismissed the Markle rumors, reports of her potential return to acting and early talks for 'The Gentlemen' have circulated. James stated his current priority is promoting the upcoming second season, which premieres Thursday. 'The Gentlemen' has already secured a renewal for its third season.
