Regretting Your Ink? Here’s an Epic List of Celebrities Who Got Tattooed for Love

We’ve all had that feeling — the one where infatuation seems like true love and all of a sudden you’re walking into a tattoo shop and … no? OK, well, the following list of celebs, including Khloé Kardashian, Paris Hilton and Heather Rae Young, may or may not have had the urge to permanently ink their boo’s name on them in the name of “true love.”

While some of these celeb couples and their tattoos have withstood the test of time, others faded as fast as they wished the ink did. And trust us, a whopping zero of these names will surprise you.

Take Travis Barker, for example. Kourtney Kardashian‘s boyfriend, who has over 100 tattoos, got the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star’s name inked on his chest in April 2021. The craziest part? The Poosh.com founder and Blink-182 only made their relationship official two months prior!

Clearly, Travis is smitten. However, Kourtney, who shares kids Mason, Penelope and Reign, with ex Scott Disick, “is in no rush” to marry her rockstar beau, a source previously told Life & Style.

“But she’s never been married … so, who knows? Right now, she’s just happy and there’s zero pressure on the relationship to be anything more than what it is,” the insider added. “It’s the most normal relationship she’s ever been in. There’s no jealousy or petty behavior. Kourtney and Travis are both independent with their own interests.”

As it happens, Travis’ tattoo in honor of Kourtney isn’t the first time he’s ~gone under the needle~ for love. In fact, he and ex-wife Shanna Moakler, with whom he shares teenagers Landon and Alabama, got a number of designs dedicated to each other during their six years together.

Travis and Shanna were married from 2004 to 2008. Despite a brief reconciliation after Travis’ near-fatal plane crash in September of that year, the pair called it quits for good in April 2009. Shanna has since moved on with off-again, on-again boyfriend Matthew Rondeau.

Here’s hoping his relationship with Kourtney (and his tattoo!) doesn’t meet the same fate.
