Chrissy Teigen’s Dad Gets Her Face Tattooed For Her 33rd Birthday
While a wad of cash for a next tattoo is a great birthday gift, Ron Teigen Sr. upped the ink game.
Chrissy Teigen’s father, Ron Teigen Sr., surprised Chrissy Teigen with the second best gift anyone could ask for. The first, being gifted money for a tattoo—the second, being what Mr. Teigen got from Mark Mahoney. Dad tattooed a Chrissy portrait on his upper arm, and the birthday girl captioned her snapchat: “MY DAD GOT A TATTOO OF ME FOR MY BIRTHDAY.”
The 33-year-old model, shared the photo of her dad’s new ink, ending the caption with a series of heart emojis.
Mark Mahoney is the main tattoo artist at the Shamrock Social Club in Hollywood, namely tattooing Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp, alongside a whopping list of A-list celebrities.
That list also includes celebrities like Lana Del Rey, Angelina Jolie, David Beckham, Cher, Jared Leto, and Britney Spears.
Kim Kardashian left an “OMG” comment on her Instagram photo.
Katie Couric wrote, “Oh. My. God.”
Mindy Kaling commented, “Literally cannot believe.”
Chrissy is the daughter of Ron and Vilailuck, and has a sister named Tina.
Chrissy’s dad lives around the corner from Chrissy, and said that her mom stays with her at her Beverly Hills home.
“So my mom lives with us but everybody is like, “Where is your dad?” she said. “He comes by every day and they’re married. It just works for them. It’s a good family life. We’re all very close, very tight-knit.”
The model, author, and TV personality celebrated her birthday with husband John Legend and their two children, 2-year-old Luna and six-month-old Miles, on a beach holiday to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
During her get-away, she posted two videos on Twitter that showed roses on their hotel bed in the shape of a heart, and a beach-side dinner surrounded by holiday lights.
She captioned the clip of the romantic roses on the bed, “Whose birthday is this?”
Chrissy donned a bathrobe as she walked to a table set outside for her birthday dinner.
