Many of the images have now gone viral on social media.

The doppelgangers are ­obviously keen on frame and fortune . . . 

Meanwhile, celebrity lookalikes can rake in a fortune from their famous face.

Last month we told of Heidi Agan who has been dubbed the UK’s most realistic Kate Middleton lookalike.

The royal dupe has worked as an impersonator for the Princess of Wales for more than a decade.

The mother-of-two from Northamptonshire started working as Kate’s double in 2012.

She signed up with the London-based agency Susan Scott Lookalikes and went from working as a waitress to jetting around the world.

Heidi told Barcroft TV in 2014: “I was working a good six days a week to try and keep a roof over my head and my children’s heads.”

Now, she can be paid “thousands” to do half a day’s work and performs alongside colleagues who impersonate Prince William, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

She has done television appearances, newspaper publications and media events.
