Millie Bright's tattoo designs

Last week, we saw the 29-year-old Chelsea star, Millie Bright, lead the Lionesses out in their group D opener against Haiti. Bright is currently England's interim captain in place of injured Leah Williamson. However, her own presence at the World Cup was also in doubt after spending a few months out with a knee injury.

Nonetheless, this period of absence allowed her to spend even more time in the tattoo studio, and she has some new designs to show for it!

Owl tattoo

Bright recently went for a sitting for her new owl tattoo sleeve with tattoo artist, Dan Rossetter. Born on the outskirts of Sheffield in Yorkshire, Bright would regularly spot owls out and about near her rural childhood home.

The owl tattoo is itself very impressive, but perhaps even more so is the fact that her tattoo artist revealed she'd fallen asleep during the five-hour job!

Half a tiger forearm tattoo

Millie Bright's left forearm is home to an impressive tiger tattoo done using black and grey tattoo ink. The design is combined with the eye of her partner, Levi Crew, which can be seen clearly near the centre-back's wrist. This tattoo is particularly meaningful as it is an ongoing reminder of the strength she shows and needs in her daily life.

Dreamcatcher tattoo

One particularly personal design for Bright is the dreamcatcher tattoo that sits on the inside of her left forearm. Inspired by mum Nicola's encouraging words to 'dream big' before every match, Bright designed this beautiful piece of body art herself.

Angel with wings tattoo

On her right wrist, Bright has a script tattoo that reads 'angel' and is accompanied by a set of wings. It's a much smaller and simpler design than those on her left arm, yet still catches the eye on the pitch.

Matching tattoo with Rachel Daly

Within the England Squad, it's not just Bright who has a passion for body art. Her teammate, Rachel Daly, also sports numerous tattoos. During training ahead of their first World Cup game, Bright and Aston Villa player Daly showed off the matching two halves designs they both have on their right hands. Displayed as a 1/2 fraction, we can only assume this design is a nod to the famous saying that football is a game of two halves.
