Madame Tussauds unveiled two wax figures of Meghan Markle on Wednesday.
The first waxwork was unveiled at Madame Tussauds in London, while the second figure went on display at the Times Square location.
The waxwork, called ‘Her Royal Likeness’, shows Markle alongside husband-to-be Prince Harry and the rest of the royal family, including Kate Middleton, Prince William and Queen Elizabeth.

One of the most stunning details of the waxwork is the attention to detail on the engagement ring.
The real ring was made by Cleave and Company, Court Jewellers and Medallists to Her Majesty The Queen.
At its centre is a diamond from Botswana, a country that holds special significance for Prince Harry who has visited many times since he was a child. It is also a place the couple has spent time together over the last year and a half.
The ring features two outside stones, which are diamonds from the personal collection of Prince Harry’s mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

Prince Harry later revealed in the couple’s first joint television interview that he mounted the stones on yellow gold because it is her ‘favourite’.
He said: ‘The ring is – is obviously yellow gold because that’s what – her favourite and the main stone itself I sourced from Botswana and the – the little diamonds either side are from my mother’s jewellery collection to make sure that she’s with us on this – on this crazy journey together.’
David Allen of 77 Diamonds said a ring of this size and quality would start at around £50,000 but with the use of the late Princess Diana’s diamonds as side stones, this ring, like Kate’s before it is of inestimable worth.
