Lena Dunham tattooed the word “Staunch” on her bikini line as a replacement for the “Staunch” tattoo that she used to have on her wrist which she covered over with a cross.
Her love of the word “Staunch” is inspired by the movie Grey Gardens, in which Little Edie says “But you see in dealing with me, the relatives didn’t know that they were dealing with a staunch character and I tell you if there’s anything worse than dealing with a staunch woman… S-T-A-U-N-C-H. There’s nothing worse, I’m telling you. They don’t weaken, no matter what.”
In one of her instagram photos, this tattoo has a star around it. However this doesn’t seem to be part of the tattoo as it isn’t present in more recent pictures.
