EasyJet crowns William and Kate look-alikes by Cheap Flights Booker UK

EasyJet has crowned the winners of a competition to find Europe"s best Prince William and Kate Middleton look-alikes.

Simon Watkinson from London and Orsola Rossi from Milan triumphed in the contest, which invited entries from several countries across the continent.

Twenty finalists from more than ten European nations gathered in London yesterday (27 April), where they were asked to take part in tests including waving like a royal, acting out a romantic wedding proposal and throwing a bridal bouquet.

Mr Watkinson said he couldn"t believe he had won the competition, despite being told many times that he looks like Prince William, while Ms Rossi said it was "very exciting" to be voted the best double for "one of the most famous women in the world".

The pair will remain in London for the royal wedding celebrations and will also receive a year"s worth of free easyJet flights.

Paul Moore, the airline"s communications director, said: "The competition has been fierce, with hundreds applying to be crowned the best Will and Kate look-alikes Europe has to offer. However, Simon and Orsola stood out as they bear such a striking resemblance to our future King and Queen.

"It has been great fun to fly look-alikes from all over Europe to London to enjoy the wedding celebrations and crown our very own easyJet royal couple."
