The playful question elicited laughter from the actors as Joe continued to name who he considered the attractive stars of the show, including Adams and Gabriel Macht, who portrayed Harvey Specter.
He further probed: “Is it hard to work with all of that hotness?”.
With a chuckle, Meghan responded: “I mean, how do you even answer that? No. Absolutely not. It’s one of the job perks, right?”
She quickly shifted the conversation to her character’s impressive wardrobe, confessing to “borrowing things, here and there”.
The mum-of-two elaborated: “There’s a Tom Ford skirt and I think, ‘If Rachel can wear that on Tuesday as a paralegal, then I can certainly borrow that for a Valentine’s date!’ It’s pretty fun!”

Meghan returned to screens with her new series, With Love, Meghan, which features her cooking and hosting for a number of her celebrity friends. However, the eight-part series has received scathing reviews in the British media, with one outlet branding the venture “insane”.
The headline of a review by The Guardian reads: “Kiss the deal goodbye! With Love, Meghan is so pointless it might be the Sussexes’ last TV show.”
Stuart Heritage described it as the third consecutive disappointment from Harry and Meghan’s output after the duke’s Polo series and the Heart Of Invictus documentary.
The Telegraph gave it two stars and said: “It is, to put it kindly, insane”, branding it an “exercise in narcissism, filled with extravagant brunches, celebrity pals and business plugs”.
