The wax figure wears a green dress like the one
Markle wore on the day her engagement was announced, as well as
a replica of her diamond engagement ring, designed for her by
Harry.
The wax figure of the prince, originally created to mark his
30th birthday, has been updated with a new beard.
The couple's waxworks will be accessible to the public the day
before their wedding. Madame Tussauds is one of London's most
popular tourist attractions, with people queuing to take selfies
with wax figures of celebrities past and present.
The museum said visitors named Meghan or Harry would enjoy free
entry on the day of the ceremony.
"Excitement ahead of the royal wedding is reaching fever pitch
and we have been inundated with questions about when people can
finally meet 'Their Royal Likenesses'," said Edward Fuller,
general manager of Madame Tussauds.
Harry, the 33-year-old grandson of Queen Elizabeth and
sixth-in-line to the throne, and Markle, 36, who starred in the
U.S. TV legal drama "Suits", will marry in Windsor on May 19.
