The cast of the cut-throat legal drama Suits strutted their stuff at the Golden Globes last night, but one royal star was noticeably missing from the red carpet reunion.
A-listers were out in force on Sunday night for the glitzy award show at The Beverly Hilton, giving Hollywood's elite the chance to catch up with their old pals and colleagues.
Much to the delight of Suits fans, some of our favourite faces from the popular series attended the 81st annual awards ceremony - including Patrick J. Adams (Mike Ross), Gabriel Macht (Harvey Specter), Gina Torres (Jessica Pearson) and Sarah Rafferty (Donna Paulsen).
Viewers weren't the only ones excited to see the gang back together, as Torres - who played the tough-talking managing partner at the fictional law firm - revealed their group chat had been buzzing about it too.

During a chat with reporter Marc Malkin on the red carpet, the actress said: "Well, when it all came through we were texting each other. Our text thread is insane right now, it's exciting."
The interviewer then pressed Torres about her former co-star, Meghan Markle, who announced she would not be reprising her role of Rachel Zane shortly before revealing her engagement to Prince Harry in 2017.
Malkin asked: "Who texted Meghan and said 'you've got to come to the Golden Globes!'"
Instead of fluffing up an answer, Torres was brutally honest about the reason behind the cast's lack of communication with the Duchess of Sussex.

Just like her character Jessica Pearson, Torres didn't mince her words.
She responded: "We don’t have her number. We just don’t."
Adams and Macht were both presenting at the star-studded ceremony and were later joined on stage by Torres and Rafferty to deliver the award for Outstanding Drama Series, which HBO hit show Succession took home.
Despite Markle supposedly leaving the chat, Torres reassured Suits fans there was no animosity between them.
The Hannibal star, 54, added: "She'll see, she'll watch. She'll be happy that we're here."

Adams, who played the smooth talking protagonist Mike Ross in Suits, also gave some insight into the cast's texting habits while at the Golden Globes.
He said: "Mostly, I’m just trying to get Gabriel to respond. Honestly, he’s slow on the text and he has like six different numbers now because he lives in England. So, we’re just trying to find out which number works."
Markle and her husband Prince Harry also came up in conversation during Jo Koy's controversial opening monologue, which has received mixed reviews.
He made a veiled jab at the 'rich, white and dysfunctional' Royal Family, before zoning in on the couple.

Koy told the crowd: "Succession has nine nominations. Just a great series about a rich, white, dysfunctional family, all scheming -- oh, wait, that's The Crown. I'm sorry."
The comedian then took a swipe at the Sussexes about their pricey Netflix deal, saying: "Harry and Meghan Markle got paid millions for doing absolutely nothing. And that's just by Netflix."
I bet Markle's phone has been buzzing today.
