Born in the purple意思

"Born in the purple" is an English idiom that means to be born into a position of wealth, privilege, or royalty. The phrase originates from the ancient Roman practice of using Tyrian purple dye to color the robes of imperial officials and the royal family. The dye was very expensive and could only be afforded by the very wealthy or those in positions of power. Therefore, to be "born in the purple" was to be born into a family of wealth or nobility.

The phrase is often used metaphorically to describe someone who has had a privileged upbringing or who has been born into a life of luxury and influence. It can also imply that such individuals may have had an easier path to success or power due to their family background.
