Gabriella Munro Douglas, a 36-year-old furniture designer from southwest London, stumbled upon a unique side hustle as a Kate Middleton lookalike.
Encouraged by her family, Gabriella joined a lookalike agency in 2011, amidst the buzz surrounding the Royal wedding.
Her uncanny resemblance to the Princess of Wales led to numerous opportunities, including meet and greets, corporate events, and photo shoots, earning her up to £650 to £1,000 per day.
Gabriella meticulously studied Kate's wardrobe and public appearances, replicating her style to perfection. She even purchased a fake bump during Kate's pregnancy to enhance her resemblance for appearances.
"Of course, emulating Kate meant I had to keep up with her wardrobe and accessories, but thankfully it was quite easy," Gabriella told The Sun.
Despite her success, Gabriella's Instagram account has been inactive since 2016. Her IMDB profile reveals an uncredited role in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Interestingly, earlier this year, a video of Kate Middleton with Prince William sparked a conspiracy theory, with some social media users claiming it was actually Gabriella, the lookalike.
Gabriella's story is a testament to the unexpected turns life can take, and how a simple resemblance can lead to unique and lucrative opportunities.
