One week before his splitfrom fiancéeAriana Grande, Davidson changed up thePlayboy-inspired bunny ears mask(the one Grande wore on the cover of herDangerous Womanalbum) tattooed on the left side of his neck, which he got when the two began dating.
He replaced it with a large heart and a small lowercase “a” next to the design, perhaps to signal that the tattoo change was not because of a falling-out with Grande.
According to theNew York Post’sPage Six, he transformed his tattoo to match Grande, who has a large heart tattoo on her body (it’s unclear where).
But since their split became permanent, there’s more to change: they each hadtiny clouds on their fingers;the word “reborn” on their thumbs; the acronym “H2GKMO” inked on their right thumbs (it’s an abbreviation of Grande’s favorite saying, “Honest to God, knock me out”); and the numbers"8418,“which was Davidson’s late father’sFDNY badge number,on their arms and ankles.

The actor’s tattoo artist, Jon Mesa, sharedbefore-and-after photosin May 2018 of the re-worked ink on Davidson’s arm, revealing a now-covered collection of tattoos that included the cartoon drawing of David, a series of stars, the words “I was saying I was crazy before I knew I was,” and “X.XI Forever.” It’s unclear what the numbers represented in roman numerals, 10.11, might signify.

In 1994, Depp had the last two letters of Ryder’s first name removed, creating the motto “Wino Forever.” Ashe toldPlayboy, the new tattoo is “actually a bit more accurate.”

The first, a giant “NINE” on the back of her neck, was a reference to Parker’s jersey number; the second, a small “07-07-07” on her wrist, was the day the couple were wed; the third, Parker’s initials, was hidden somewhere on her body. After the couple divorced in 2010, Longoria waited two years, then got them all removed.
