Meghan Markle gets her own fro-yo flavour after business boom with name drop

Meghan Markle landed her own frozen yogurt flavour after name dropping the shop sent the business booming.

The Duchess of Sussex, 39, told Oprah she used to work at Humphrey Yogart, in Los Angeles when she was 13 years old.

It was her first real job before she went onto become an actress and star in TV shows including Suits.

More than 200 people flooded the little yogurt shop and got in line the day after the explosive interview aired on Sunday in the US.

As a thank you, bosses have whipped up a special flavour to celebrate Prince Harry and Meghan.

Their limited-edition flavour Banana Royale, made up of banana and peanut butter ice cream, takes on a combination of the couple's favourite treats.

It combines Meghan's love of chocolate chip banana bread and Harry's taste for peanut butter.

In comparison it's reported a regular Monday at Gelson's grocery, in Sherman Oaks gets around 50 customers, according to TMZ.

The branch she worked at has now closed.

All of the Humphrey Yogart's shops have closed with the exception of one.

The original shop remains in Sherman Oaks.

In the Oprah interview, Meghan had no qualms name dropping the frozen yogurt shop as she squeezed in a flavour of her own work experience.

"Thank God I had that life experience. Thank God I had known the value of working," she told Oprah.

"My first job was when I was 13 at a frozen yogurt shop called Humphrey Yogart."

It's not the first time the yogurt shop has honoured their former employee.

In 2018, they released a special ice cream to celebrate the Royal wedding of Meghan and Harry.

At the time, they offered a 50% discount on the peanut butter and strawberry ice cream combination.
