Jelly Roll

Jelly Roll has appeared in a new trailer for the 2025 Invictus Games – and given Prince Harry a less-than-ideal new tattoo. Check it out below.

In a lighthearted new video shared yesterday (November 19), the royal is seen meeting up with the artist in the hopes of getting him to perform at the 2025 edition of the Invictus Games.

Waiting inside a tattoo parlour, hoping to bring the topic into discussion, Prince Harry is seen being greeted by Jelly Roll, who rocks up wearing gloves and carrying a tattoo gun.

“I could not believe it when they called me and told me Prince Harry wanted to get a tattoo today, and he wanted me to give him his first tattoo!” the artist gleefully boasts as he walks into the room.

Looking increasingly concerned, Harry clarifies: “I came here to ask you to do the Invictus Games, there’s no tattoo in this.”

Eventually, the two come to a deal, with the tattoo-covered ‘Son of a Sinner’ singer proposing a deal. “I’ll play the Invictus Games, [if] you just let me give you your first tattoo,” he says before a reluctant Harry responds “All right, screw it”.

As they debate where the placement should be – with the royal hoping for a more hidden spot on his lower back – they ultimately decide that the ideal spot for the first tattoo should be on the side of Harry’s neck.

Jelly Roll proceeds to tattoo ‘I AM JELLY ROLL’ in huge letters across the Duke of Sussex’s neck, before Harry starts to panic. “Dude, it’s enormous!” he shouts as the musician sprints out of the room. “You put your name on my neck? Are you serious? Oh, shit.”

Check out the full clip above.

The 2025 instalment of the Invictus Games will be held in Vancouver, B.C., next February.

They were founded by the royal back in 2014, and are held as a weeklong event that supports the journey into recovery from injured and sick service people across the world.

As for Jelly Roll, the new clip with the member of the royal family comes as he recently received two Grammy nods – one for Best Country Solo Performance and one for Best Country Song. Both nominations are for his song ‘I Am Not Okay’, which featured on his chart-topping album ‘Beautifully Broken’.

Since then, he has also announced that he will be joining Post Malone for an upcoming stadium tour across the US next spring.
