New Princess of Wales wax figure unveiled at Madame Tussauds London

Ammon News - A new wax figure of the Princess of Wales has been unveiled at Madame Tussauds London. Kate's waxwork has been styled in a sparkly Jenny Packham gown and silver pumps, paying homage to her outfit to the annual diplomatic reception in December 2023. On top of the dusty pink dress, the statue is adorned with the Royal Victorian Order blue sash. The new figure is also styled with the Royal Family Order of Elizabeth II, replica Greville Diamond Chandelier earrings and a replica of the Lover's Knot Tiara from the Madame Tussauds London archive. The tiara was previously worn by the wax figure of Princess Diana at the tourist attraction in the 1980s. "We are delighted that a new figure of the much-loved Catherine, Princess of Wales, has officially landed in The Royal Palace Experience at our attraction in the heart of London, continuing our centuries-long work with the Royal Family," Steve Blackburn, senior general manager at Madame Tussauds London, said. "Kate, majestically crafted by our talented studio team, has been sculpted to ensure her resemblance is fit for a future queen, alongside her dashing husband." The new wax figure will stand next to the statue of her husband, Prince William, and her in-laws, the King and Queen Camilla. William's waxwork has been upgraded by dressing it in a black Ede & Ravenscroft tuxedo, a white bow tie, as well as replicas of his sash and star of the Order of the Garter and army medals.

New Princess Kate Wax Figure Seeks To Make Her Look "Fit For Future Queen"

The new figure stands next to one of her husband Prince William. (File) London's Madame Tussauds museum on Wednesday unveiled a new wax figure of Princess Catherine "to ensure her resemblance is fit for a future queen". The new figure stands next to one of her husband, Prince William, as well as those of King Charles III and Queen Camilla. She is wearing a sparkly pink Jenny Packham gown and silver pumps, as well as a Royal Victorian Order blue sash. The outfit was styled "in homage to the outfit worn to the annual diplomatic reception in December 2023," Madame Tussauds said. It is finished with an exact replica of the Lover's Knot tiara, which had been worn in the 1980s by the museum's figure of Princess Diana. Senior general manager, Steve Blackburn, said the Princess of Wales, also known as Kate, was "majestically crafted by our talented studio team". She "has been sculpted to ensure her resemblance is fit for a future queen, alongside her dashing husband," he added. Kate's new double has been put in place nearly 14 months after the princess, now 43, announced she had been diagnosed with an unspecified cancer and was having chemotherapy in March 2024. The shock announcement came only weeks after officials revealed that King Charles III, 76, had also been diagnosed with cancer. While Charles' treatment continues, Kate has said she is now in remission. The figure of Kate was also styled with the Royal Family Order of Elizabeth II and replica Greville Diamond Chandelier earrings. Her husband too, the Prince of Wales, "has been upgraded," the museum said. He is dressed in a black Ede & Ravenscroft tuxedo, with a white bow tie, with replicas of his sash and star of the Order of the Garter and army medals.
