Never-before-seen photos featuring Suits stars Meghan Markle and Abigail Spencer have an incredibly tragic backstory.
Shared on Instagram by Kelly Mckee Zajfen, the pics show the trio wearing t-shirts with the slogan 'Love Like a Mother'.
Kelly, a former model, had actually lost her nine-year-old son, Georgie, two years ago to Covid and viral Meningitis.

She set up the non-profit organisation called Alliance of Moms when he passed away. It is a community which supports pregnant and or teens parents who are in the foster care system and provides essential services to make their lives easier with such an amount of responsibility, and lack of resources available.
Meghan and Abigail joined Kelly in the snaps which were captioned: "When we speak about the people in our lives who lift us up when you need it with undeniable force of pure love I think of these two.
"You inspire me. You pick me up when I need it and you Love Like A Mother!"
Speaking to People, Kelly opened about how she relives her last moments with Georgie every day, saying: "The mornings are the hardest for me. Waking to the reality that my son is gone.
"It is hard to articulate this kind of pain. Where you can somehow function, but you are not entirely sure how every movement of your body is doing its job.
"The moment I wake, I relive our last moments together. It is traumatic, painful, and so very vivid.
"It happened very quickly. We had no idea when we took him into the hospital that 12 hours later, he would not make it.
"My nine-year-old son George died."
She called him ‘healthy and vibrant’ when talking about her loss.
"We lost him. I kissed him. But it was to say goodbye. It is impossible to know how to survive this type of grief. Even more impossible is the ability to find all the right tools that will help you manage each day. I definitely do not have all the answers," Kelly told the outlet.
When Georgie sadly passed, Meghan and Harry donated $5,000 to a GoFundMe made in his honour to help support the grieving family after becoming great friends with Kelly through Meghan's ex-husband, Trevor Engelson.
