In Dater’s Handbook, Markle stars as Cass, a strong-minded businesswoman who happens to have a history of choosing the wrong men.

Cass meets Robert (Kristoffer Polaha), a down-to-earth, fun, interesting, and adorable man. They hit it off immediately. She feels the sparks between them, but then her client George (Jonathan Scarfe) asks her out. Well, why not? According to the handbook, she should keep her options open. George is the opposite of Robert. He’s stuffy and a bit pretentious. He prefers champagne while Robert goes for beer. But, according to her sister, George checks off all the boxes in the handbook.
