These Hollywood stars don't think that monogamy is the key to a lasting relationship
The now-ex couple got matching cloud tattoos on the middle fingers of their left hands, and the words "mille tendresse," which Davidson later covered up on his neck with the word "cursed." He also got a bunny mask tattoo behind his ear in honor of the singer which he covered with a black heart.
The daytime talk show host expressed on 'The Real' that when she was younger she got a few tattoos that she dedicated to ex-boyfriends.
Grande also has been covering up tattoos dedicated to her ex-fiancé, like his name on her finger. She also covered up “reborn”—which Davidson also had—with what seemed to be a feather or leaf.
When she dated A$AP Rocky, she had the title of his mixtape 'Live, Love, A$AP' inked on her fingers, but later had it crossed out when the couple broke up.
Minaj's ex Safaree Samuels had her face tattooed on his arm, but since their split he has covered it with a bed of roses.
Blink-182 rocker Travis Barker debuted a tattoo dedicated to his then-relatively-new girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian, inking her name above his left nipple. Of course, Barker is already covered in ink so the new tattoo is layered on top of another tattoo. He also previously got a tattoo of a heart inscribed with the name of his ex-wife, Shanna Moakler, so this kind of permanent dedication isn't new for him.
Rihanna and Drake got matching shark tattoos back in 2016, shortly before they went their separate ways. The small tattoos remained untouched for five years, but in 2021, fans noticed that she had covered hers up with another tattoo.
In the case of Travis Barker, he has few qualms about the permanence of ink. He got a tattoo of new fiancée Kourtney Kardashian's lips to cover up the old tattoo of his ex-wife's name, Shanna Moakler, ET reports. He also covered up a large tattoo he'd dedicated to Moakler on his bicep with a big scorpion, adding a tattoo imprint of Kourt's black-lipstick kiss print near the of the scorpion's tail. And that's not all the ink he's dedicated to his wife!
Shortly after going "Instagram official" with then-boyfriend Pete Davidson, Kim Kardashian appeared on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' to give an inside look into their relationship. Kim revealed favorite tattoo Davidson got for her said, "My girl is a lawyer." However, the 'Kim' tattoo that fans had already noticed isn't a tattoo. It's actually a brand! Davidson got her name branded onto his chest after presumably less than six months of dating. Davidson reportedly told her, "I don't want to be able to get rid of it or to cover it up, and I just wanted it, like, there as, like, a scar."
While dating rapper Tyga, the makeup mogul had a small "t" inked on her ankle for her then-boyfriend. Meanwhile, Tyga rocked Kylie's first name on the inside of his right arm.
The same weekend that Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian made their red carpet debut for the White House correspondents' dinner, Davidson was papped leaving the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles with fresh ink that read "KNSCP," and fans were quick to piece together that the "K" might stand for Kim, and the rest of the letters stand for her children in descending order of age: North, Saint, Chicago, Psalm. Though the pair are now split, Davidson had multiple tattoos dedicated to Kim.
Hawk-eyed fans noticed that Kanye "Ye" West's now-former girlfriend, Chaney Jones, had 'Ye' tattooed on her wrist in an Instagram post. Jones and West had been dating for several months, though they split and Ye is rumored to now be married to Yeezy designer Bianca Censori. Regrets? Probably.
On Valentine's Day, Jennifer Lopez shared a post on Instagram revealing her and Ben Affleck's complementary couple tattoos. The photos show the singer's infinity sign on her ribcage that appears to have the names "Jennifer" and "Ben" written in cursive, along with an arrow going through it. Affleck's ink has two arrows crossing one another with the letter "J" above and "B" below. Lopez wrote in the hashtags, "#CommitmentIsSexy" and included several adorable snaps of the pair as they celebrated their first Valentine's Day as a married couple.
Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz got married in 2023 when he was just 23 years old and she was 27. That was already a pretty big commitment for the young couple, but Beckham took it a step further and dedicated over 20 tattoos to his wife. He has a large portrait of Peltz that covers his right upper arm. "I think once you find that person that you just can't live without, I think it's so like easy," he said in a Feb 21. interview. "I love her more than anything. I always try to make her happy. That's all I do."

Love can sometimes make couples do dumb things, like getting matching ink or even tattoos of one another. But what lovebirds often fail to realize (even famous duos) is that love doesn't always last forever—but ink does!
After marrying Antonio Banderas in 1996, Melanie Griffith got a tattoo of "Antonio" in a heart on her right arm. The tattoo unfortunately outlasted their marriage, however, and after their divorce in 2015, Griffith had it removed. Now, in its place, is a design featuring the first names of her four kids: Alexander Bauer (whom she shares with ex-husband Steven Bauer), Stella Banderas (whom she shares with Banderas), Dakota Johnson (whom she shares with ex-husband Don Johnson), and her step-son Jesse Johnson.
