Which 90 Day Fiancé Stars Have Tattoos (& What Their Ink Means) (2024)

Tattoos are a major form of self-expression, and 90 Day Fiancé stars know how to embrace them. Whether the tattoos are hidden where no one can see it, or in an indecipherable script, several 90 Day Fiancé cast members have tattoos with meanings that are sometimes absurd, but might be special to them. They could be lyrics from a favorite song, or relating to a memory they have of a lost loved one. When there is some kind of body art spotted on a TLC star, it is common to wonder what the tattoos signify and how they describe the cast member's personality.

One of the most talked about cast members with tattoos is 90 Day Fiancé's Angela Deem. She had a set of mysterious numbers on her wrist, a design on her breast, and was once ridiculed for covering Michael Ilesanmi’s name with a band-aid. Ximena Morales had Mike Berk’s name on her wrist, covered it up, and instead got a vulgar word on her leg. Erika Owens has creative tattoos to match her colorful personality, and Rebecca Parrott has full sleeve tattoos on both arms. Deavan Clegg has Edward Scissorhands adorning her body, while Larissa Lima seemingly got her tattoos removed. A few other stars also have an interest in body art, but here are some whose tattoos have often piqued interest.
