Great grandmother, Gwladys Wiliams, is the oldest person in the UK to go under the needle at the ripe old age of 94. She got 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 seven years ago.
Gwladys has a total of 58 grand children, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren. She only became interested in tattoos in her later life. Her tattooist, Sascia Angel Marques, of Inkvasion in North Wales said 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 had been 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!
