Markle is no stranger to negative press.
Last month, the Duchess caught heat for postponing her new Netflix series, "With Love, Meghan," amid the LA wildfires.
"It would have been wrong to launch her new show while the wildfires continue to rage through L.A.," royal photographer Helena Chard recently told Fox News Digital. "I have to say it's a first, her giving some thought to the release date of her series. She usually releases her work at the most inappropriate time, to the dismay and wrath of the general public."
"The public have understandably constantly berated her for being tone-deaf. She is hoping the public see her in a new light as a caring, helpful and kind person, thus changing their current perception of her."
Spencer said Markle's new show will highlight the person she actually is.
"What I love about it is, you know, Meghan is one of my best friends, and I feel like the whole world is going to see, like, an authentic, very cool, very lovely insight into who she actually is as a person," she teased. "You're also going to learn a lot! I've learned a lot from her myself."
This isn't the first time Spencer has voiced her support for Markle.
The "Rectify" actress went on to share her memories of Markle supporting her through good times and bad, and specifically recalled a time she "physically held me in my darkest hours after my dad died."
"After a gut-wrenching break up she brought me into her home & nursed me back to health. Soup & salad waiting in the kitchen, just, if I needed it. She's taken my son in as her own. I can't tell you the value of having another working mother I can lean on when with the pressures of visibility & child-rearing woes become overwhelming," Spencer continued.
She referred to Markle as a "safe harbor" and "someone I can fall apart in front of."
