Kim revealed favorite tattoo Davidson got for her said, "My girl is a lawyer." However, the 'Kim' tattoo that fans had already noticed isn't a tattoo. It's actually a brand! Davidson got her name branded onto his chest after presumably less than six months of dating. Davidson reportedly told her, "I don't want to be able to get rid of it or to cover it up, and I just wanted it, like, there as, like, a scar."

He also previously got a tattoo of a heart inscribed with the name of his ex-wife, Shanna Moakler, so this kind of permanent dedication isn't new for him.

Celebrities who love (and regret) their couple tattoos
Melanie Griffith replaces Antonio Banderas tattoo with tribute to her kids
© Getty Images
Love can sometimes make couples do dumb things, like getting matching ink or even tattoos of one another. But what lovebirds often fail to realize (even famous duos) is that love doesn't always last forever—but ink does!
After marrying Antonio Banderas in 1996, Melanie Griffith got a tattoo of "Antonio" in a heart on her right arm. The tattoo unfortunately outlasted their marriage, however, and after their divorce in 2015, Griffith had it removed. Now, in its place, is a design featuring the first names of her four kids: Alexander Bauer (whom she shares with ex-husband Steven Bauer), Stella Banderas (whom she shares with Banderas), Dakota Johnson (whom she shares with ex-husband Don Johnson), and her step-son Jesse Johnson.
Click through to check out the other stars who have gotten inked for love, and find out how some have tried to cover them up when the love fizzled out...
