The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, has been featured in an advertisement for Clevr Blends, a coffee company she holds shares in. Markle is an extra in the video for the company she has been invested in since 2020.
Clevr Blends was co-founded in 2019 by CEO Hannah Mendoza, a University of California Santa Barbara graduate. The Instagram reel shows Mendoza at the company’s headquarters thanking everyone for their commitment to the company in 2023. Markle appears in the video as an intern, brewing hot drinks and stacking boxes. Everyone looks to be having a great time, and Markle even tries to fist bump a team member, resulting in laughter from everyone on set.
The caption for the video reads: “So grateful for the immense love and support this year—thanks for helping us keep the latte-loving dream alive, and thriving!xo”
Clevr Blends is a superfood latte and tea brand that includes brain-boosting, mind-clearing, and mood-lifting ingredients. Markle even sent a basket to Oprah Winfrey in 2020, and the product was featured two years in a row on Oprah’s Favorite Things. According to the latte brand’s website, the media mogul described Clevr as her “new drink of choice for the morning and night.”
In 2019, Markle discussed her investment in the company with Fortune, calling it “a passionate female entrepreneur who prioritizes building community alongside her business.” She went on to say, “I’m proud to invest in Hannah’s commitment to sourcing ethical ingredients and creating a product that I personally love and has a holistic approach to wellness. I believe in her and I believe in her company.”
Mendoza also shared her gratitude for Markle’s investment. She stated, “Entrepreneurs need funding, but they also need advisers who care deeply about what they are building.” It appears that she has found both of those things in the Duchess of Sussex.
