From lovers to cover-ups – how A-list stars have tweaked their tattoos after bitter fallouts
WHEN it comes to getting a tattoo tribute to your family, lover or idol, you should maybe learn from Brooklyn Beckham and think before you ink.
After his angry rant about parents Victoria and David last month, he has dealt them another blow by covering the word “Dad” on his anchor tatt, with three random-looking shapes over the letters.
But Brooklyn – who also has the eyes of wife Nicola, right with him, inked on his neck – is not the only celebrity to have thought again about their body art.
Tom Bryden looks at five other stars who said tatty bye to unwanted tatts…
ANGELINA JOLIE
SHE wore a vial of her husband’s blood around her neck, so a tattoo of Billy Bob Thornton’s name was one of Angelina’s tamer tributes.
After their split, the inking changed course – with the co-ordinates for the birthplaces of her six children.
SYLVESTER STALLONE
WHEN Sly covered a tatt of his wife Jennifer Flavin with his late pup Butkus in 2022, he had to deny the marriage was Rocky.
Maybe it was just a ruff time.
JOHNNY DEPP
AFTER his 1993 break-up from Winona Ryder, the Hollywood star changed the “Winona Forever” tattoo on his bicep to “Wino Forever” – a cheeky nod to Johnny’s love of wine.
HEIDI KLUM
THE supermodel gave her singer hubby the Seal of approval with arty print of his name, next to stars for their kids.
But Heidi split with Seal in 2012 and had his name lasered off.
MEGAN FOX
THE actress scrubbed a tattoo of one-time idol Marilyn Monroe from her arm in 2011, claiming she had outgrown it after seven years.
While Some Like It Hot, Megan clearly did not.
