This amazing physical detail of a princess went unnoticed during the jubilee

Many people today decide to get a tattoo. Lots of people, but not the royal family. For members of the monarchy, tattooing is not a usual practice, but rather a rather rebellious and possibly frowned upon act. A very famous princess has however departed from the rule. During the seventieth anniversary of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, which took place from June 2 to 5, Princess Eugenie surprised everyone by showing off a tattoo for the first time. Located behind his right ear, the design, no larger than three centimeters, depicts a discrete circle.

It’s Friday, June 3, on the occasion of Mass celebrated at Saint Paul’s Cathedral in honor of the British sovereign, that the daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, whose hairstyle revealed the nape of the neck, unveiled her new tattoo. The rapid appearance of the 32-year-old young woman that day was obviously enough for the photographers to capture this small circle inked behind her ear. If she is not the first member of the royal family to appear tattooed, King George V and Amelia Windsor, for example, having done so before her, Princess Eugenie and her tattoo have been in the news since the Queen’s Jubilee.

Princess Eugenie tattooed: a tribute to the queen?

More than just a drawing behind the ear, Princess Eugenie’s understated tattoo might actually have a special meaning. Although she hasn’t spoken about it, it could actually be a tribute to his grandmother, Elizabeth II. Indeed, in the world of tattooing, the circle has a very specific meaning. According to the magazine Wit represents eternity. Who else than the 96-year-old queen, who seems to have been on the throne since the dawn of time, better embodies eternal life? For members of the royal family, the circle can also refer to the ruler’s orba centerpiece of royal regalia since the 1660s. A gold sphere set with precious stones and pearls, it represents “Christ’s dominion over the world” and serves as a reminder that the monarch is God’s representative on Earth.
