The installation date of Meghan’s statue is on May 18 which is on the eve of the Royal Couple’s wedding day. Madam Tussauds' museum will also be holding a “royal stag and hen do” party to celebrate the couple’s last night of being single.
"You are cordially invited to A Royal Stag and Hen-Do! What better way to celebrate the wedding of the year than with the happy couple themselves during their last night of freedom!" the attraction said.
Prince Harry’s statue in London that was originally created to mark his 30th birthday, has been recently modified with a beard. As per reports, Meghan Markle did not pose for the statue and the creators had to depend on photography and research information to get the desired results. Madam Tussauds’ wax museum also features statues of Queen Elizabeth II, Prince William, and his wife Kate Middleton.
Travel companies and tourist hotspots are sure to use the nuptials as an opportunity to attract tourists and in turn spike their profits. Tussaud’s company- Merlin Entertainment may also seek a boost as terror strikes kept tourists at bay last summer.
