From romantic gestures to indelible records: the legacy of loves that have not stood the test of time
Love has always been one of the greatest inspirations for art, and in the world of celebrities, it’s no different. Many celebrities choose to immortalize their feelings through tattoos, an immutable way of expressing passion and commitment. However, the permanence of the ink doesn’t always reflect the durability of relationships.
Over the years several iconic media couples have decided to put their love on their skin. However, many of these relationships have come to an end, leaving behind not only memories but also physical marks which, in many cases, have become the symbol of a closed chapter.
Check out a list of famous couples who have opted for tattoos as a symbol of their love, but have, over time, gone their separate ways.
Anitta and Simone Susinna
The couple opted for symbolic tattoos instead of names. Simon he marked a triangle on Anitta’s ankle, while she tattooed the word “connected” on it. The relationship, however, ended in a troubled way.
