The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been invited to meet their Lego doppelgangers as part of a fun celebration for their recent move to Windsor. This delightful event is organized by Legoland Windsor Resort, where miniature models of the royal family, including their three children, have been created to commemorate this exciting transition.
In a charming twist, the new Lego figures will showcase a "Royal Removal" scene featuring William, Kate, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, Prince Louis, and their dog Orla. The models depict the family unpacking their Lego brick furniture, bringing a playful element to their relocation.
Will Metcalfe, a model maker at Legoland, expressed hope that the royal family could visit the resort to see their miniature counterparts. He shared, “If possible we’d like to get them to come down, the royals, to come and have a look for themselves and actually meet themselves in Lego. I think that’d be quite fun for them!” This lighthearted invitation highlights the connection between the royals and their public, all while offering a unique experience for both the family and the visitors to the resort.
As the Cambridges seek a quieter life away from their formal residence at Kensington Palace, they have chosen to lease a charming four-bedroom cottage near Windsor Castle, which is situated just a short walk away. This move is part of their desire to prioritize their children's well-being and provide them with a more relaxed upbringing.
The Queen has graciously permitted the lease of the historic cottage, built for Queen Adelaide in 1831. This picturesque setting will serve as a new home for the family, allowing them to embrace country living while staying close to royal traditions. The Lego installation at Legoland will be on display from September until the end of autumn, allowing visitors to witness the remarkable craftsmanship that went into creating the scene.
Legoland’s chief model maker, Paula Laughton, remarked, “The resort has always had a special connection with the royal family, so to welcome our new neighbors, our talented model makers are giving the royals a brick-tastic housewarming present by recreating the family in miniature form.” This creative tribute reflects the enduring bond between the monarchy and the public, as well as the whimsical nature of Lego that continues to captivate audiences of all ages.
This wonderful collaboration between the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Legoland Windsor not only celebrates their move but also brings joy and excitement to fans and visitors alike. It serves as a reminder that even amidst royal duties, there is always room for fun and creativity.
