You’re never too old to get some fresh ink

Great grandmother, Gwladys Wiliams is the oldest person in the UK to go under the needle at the ripe old age of 94. She has had two hearts and the words ‘Leri & Nain forever’ tattooed on her arm as a tribute to one of her great grandchildren next to a bunch of daffodils which she had tattooed on her arm 7 years ago.

Gwladys has a total of 58 grand children, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren. She only became interested in tattoos into her later life with tattooist, Sascia Angel Marques, of Inkvasion in North Wales saying that Gwladys was “hard as nails” and “hadn’t flinched once.”

Surrounded by pictures of her family in the comfort of her own home, Gwladys said that the tattoo was surprisingly un-painful and said she was “happy” with the tattoo. When talking about why she wanted this tattoo as a tribute to her great grabddaughter: “I decided to have it done because I love her so much and I might not be here for so long.” Let’s hope this is a sign of more to come for Gwladys!
