A new statue of the late Queen Elizabeth II has been the subject of mockery and indignation – and even likened to movie character Mrs Doubtfire after its controversial unveiling.

A new statue of Queen Elizabeth has been mocked online, with some saying it is "offensive" or more accurately resembles Mrs. Doubtfire.

A new statue of the late Queen Elizabeth II alongside Prince Philip and her beloved corgis has been mocked for failing to resemble the monarch “in any shape or form”. Located in Northern Ireland ’s Antrim Castle Gardens, the new bronze statues by Belfast artist Anto Brennan were unveiled on Saturday (7 September).

The newly unveiled sculpture at Antrim Castle Gardens in Northern Ireland was compared online to Robin Williams’s character in the 1993 movie “Mrs. Doubtfire.”

Many locals and users online argue that the sculpture, which is on display at Antrim Castle Gardens, hardly resembles the late British monarch.

Mockery and indignation began within hours of the unveiling of the bronze statue of Queen Elizabeth II at Antrim Castle Gardens in Northern Ireland last Friday. Detractors said it did not resemble the queen.
