Celebrities continue to use their bodies as a canvas to express their feelings, and this time singer and OnlyFans star Kerry Katona has found herself in the spotlight. The 45-year-old artist decided to immortalize her affection for 33-year-old personal trainer Paolo Margaglione, whom she met last year on the set of the show “Celebs Go Dating.” The new tattoo, located just below her bicep, features the concise inscription “Ti Amo” (Italian for “I love you”).
The symbolism of feelings in tattoo culture
For Kerry, this is not just an impulsive decision, but a conscious gift to her beloved for their anniversary. In the world of tattoo culture, inscriptions in foreign languages, especially Italian or Latin, are traditionally considered a classic romantic declaration. The use of red ink gives the design a special emotional vibrancy, setting it apart from other works on the star’s body.
Context of celebrity intrigue
Interestingly, this “inked gesture” followed just days after Kerry’s former friend, 47-year-old Katie Price, showed off her new tattoo to the public. Katie got the phrase “owned by Lee” tattooed on her stomach, dedicated to her husband, Lee Andrews. Katie and Lee officially registered their marriage in January of this year.
It’s worth noting that the personal relationships of these two ladies have recently resembled the plot of a thrilling series:
- Breakup: Kerry Katona and Katie Price, who previously communicated closely and even toured together with a theater show, quarreled in early 2026 in Dubai.
- Conflict: In February, an incident was reported between Katie’s husband and Kerry’s current boyfriend, which only added fuel to the fire of their mutual estrangement.
- Reaction: Despite Katie’s attempt to “bury the hatchet” by leaving a comment with hearts under Kerry’s post, Katona herself emphasizes that she is tired of this drama and has no intention of participating in public disputes.
The culture of “couple” tattoos
The story with Katie and Kerry’s tattoos reflects a general trend among celebrities: using skin as a way to confirm the seriousness of their intentions. While Katie Price opts for provocative inscriptions about “ownership,” Kerry Katona bets on a classic declaration of love. For Lee Andrews, Katie’s husband, tattoos have become a way to prove his devotion: his body already bears the name of Katie herself and the name of her eldest son, Harvey.
Tattoo experts note that such “love” tattoos remain one of the most sought-after trends, despite the risk of their impermanence in case of a breakup. However, for public figures, it is always a way to stay in the spotlight and convey their position to the audience, even if the romance itself goes through turbulent stages.
| Name | Tattoo dedication |
|---|---|
| Kerry Katona | “Ti Amo” (on her arm) |
| Katie Price | “owned by Lee” (on her stomach) |
| Lee Andrews | Katie’s name and Harvey’s name (on his arms) |
Currently, Kerry Katona claims to be in a “good place” and does not want to waste energy discussing the past. Her new tattoo has become the final punctuation mark in the current chapter of her life, where her feelings for Paolo come first, not the loud headlines of the tabloids.
