# Lookalike royals promote Barnardo’s pre-loved wedding clothes - Link: https://fundraising.co.uk/2018/05/16/lookalike-royals-promote-barnardos-pre-loved-wedding-clothes/ - Published: 2018-05-16T17:55:18+01:00 - Author: Howard Lake **Barnardo’s have made the most of the upcoming Royal Wedding by using Prince Harry and Meghan Markle lookalikes to showcase pre-loved clothing around the streets of Windsor.** Tourists and locals alike took a number of double-takes as they spotted ‘Prince Harry’ and ‘Meghan Markle’ walking around Windsor in the sunshine, riding an open- top bus, and visiting Wetherspoons pub, appropriately called The King and Castle. The bride wore a classic off the shoulder white dress with a train, while the groom wore a blue suit, all from a local Barnardo’s store in South High Street. The wedding dress cost just £79.99 – a fraction of the price expected to be paid for Meghan’s actual dress – while the groom’s outfit came to less than £60. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert.
