WINDSOR: With just days to go ahead of their highly anticipated wedding, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made an appearance in the town of Windsor on Wednesday -- or rather life-size models of the couple did.

A team from the Madame Tussauds wax museum unveiled the
figures on the bridge linking Windsor, where Britain's sixth-in-line to the throne and his fiancée will marry on Saturday, to Eton, and passersby soon stopped to take pictures beside them.

The London-based museum last week unveiled the Meghan Markle
figure, which it said was dressed in a dark green P.A.R.O.S.H. frock, the same outfit the American actress wore when the couple's engagement was announced last year.

"I feel I should curtsy first of course," Izzy Newman, 51, joked after taking a selfie with the figures while wearing glasses decorated with crowns. "Let's enjoy the romance and the fun of it all, and the
pageantry and all that - Brits are great at that."
