Meghan Markle's 66-year-old mother Doria Ragland always appears much younger than her years as her job as a yoga instructor keeps her fit, and did you also know she has a rebellious arm tattoo showing off her youthful side?
On Thursday, Doria was photographed at Gagosian's art gallery in Beverly Hills, wearing a chic red strappy jumpsuit, showing off her arm inking which is a floral design.

"My mom still calls me Flower," she explained, joking: "I'll be a 41-year-old Flower. That's fine."

Meghan is very close to her mom and she wrote a beautiful, touching tribute to her in her former blog The Tig back in 2014. "Dreadlocks. Nose ring. Yoga instructor. Social worker. Free spirit. Lover of potato chips & lemon tarts. And if the DJ cues Al Green's soul classic 'Call Me,' just forget it," the Duchess said.
Doria lives in the the View Park-Windsor Hills neighbourhood of Los Angeles, which is a two-hour drive away from where Meghan lives with Prince Harry and her two children, Archie and Lilibet.
Her home is a 1,400 square foot property that has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and rare photos of the exterior show it with a clay roof, lime green exterior, a bay window and palm trees framing either side of the front walkway.

Doria inherited the home from her father when he passed away in 2011. The interiors are kept under wraps as Doria does not have social media and doesn't invite the press into her property.
However, she did feature heavily in the royal couple's Netflix docuseries, Harry & Meghan, spending lots of quality time with them.

Their vast estate has a separate guesthouse that Doria could use should she wish to stop over. Their outbuilding has a further two bedrooms, ideal for guests who want to stay with them.
