Our favourite 90s rom-com heroine has been immortalised! Yes, there's now a statue of Bridget Jones in Leicester Square in London, *and we love her, just as she is.* 

Star of the film franchise, **Renée Zellweger,** and author of the original books, **Helen Fielding,** attended the unveiling, along with cast members from past and present Bridget Jones films including **Leo Woodall** and **Sally Philips.** 

The life-sized bronze statue depicts a smiling Bridget, wearing a mini skirt and holding her diary and pen. She's standing amongst a pink and white floral wall. No sign of cigarettes or alcohol, or those infamous granny knickers, which is probably a good thing! And no sign of Daniel Cleaver either...

"It seems really cute. I mean, it's really so weird, but it's really cute," Renée said after seeing, well... herself, in sculpture form (per *The Guardian).* 

The statue joins the likes of Paddington Bear, Mary Poppins and Harry Potter as part of Westminster Council's 'Scenes in the Square' campaign - a trail of film sculptures in what is now the area's thriving entertainment hub. Bridget is the first rom-com character the council has honoured with a statue!
