Reacting to the news, devastated Jess took to her Instagram to reveal she had a tattoo of the Queen on her right leg.
“I love the Queen, I have a portrait of the Queen tattooed on my leg,” she wrote under a reposted story announcing Her Majesty’s death.
Showing off the inking covering her right calf, she went on: “This was the Queen on her coronation. Definitely my favourite tattoo.”
The MAFS star later continued alongside a photo of the Queen: “I can’t stop crying. My heart has broken. I wear my tattoo with pride.”
Jess went on to show fans how she was “sobbing” watching news coverage of the monarch’s passing – taking a photo of herself crying and holding her hand over her face.
“Face swollen, eyes sore, I’m so upset – Her Majesty the Queen, RIP,” she concluded her posts – following up with a series of tribute images.
