Take a Look at the Tattoos of 90 Day Fiancé

Now that's a lot of tribal

For decades, TLC has created some pretty unusual and totally bingeable TV shows. Growing up, my family consumed plenty of garbage reality television courtesy of TLC, including “Jon and Kate Plus 8,” “Little People, Big World,” and “19 Kids and Counting.” We were hooked on these strange and curious characters, situations and stories, tuning in to shenanigans week after week.

Since 2014, one of the network’s most popular franchises has been “90 Day Fiancé” which features couples who are in the process of applying for a K-1 visa. These couples typically consist of one American and one foreign citizen experiencing dating in real life after months (or years) of long distance. The show has introduced the world to some pretty wild couples, many of which are doomed from the start. From major lies to extreme age gaps to lifestyle differences to cultural clashes, many couples from this show don’t make it through the 90 days. However, they certainly provide entertaining television along the way.

“90 Day Fiancé” has created seven main seasons, as well as a plethora of spin-offs including “90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?,” “90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days,” and “90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way.” As a whole, the franchise has introduced many cast members with visible tattoos and these pieces have just as much personality as the people wearing them. Take a look at tattoos on some of the most memorable “90 Day Fiancé” cast members in the gallery below, then let us know your favorite couple to watch from this franchise in the comments section on social media.

Geoffrey

Geoffrey appeared on the fourth (and most recent) season of “90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days.” On the show, he traveled from Tennessee to Russia to meet his girlfriend Varya.

Geoffrey has some of the most interesting tattoos of any “90 Day Fiancé” cast member. His work is straight from the 90s and includes a faded centipede on his bicep, several pieces on his back and what’s that—nipple framing tribal? Amazing.

Big Ed

Big Ed was the breakout star of “90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days,” shocking fans worldwide with his mayo shampoo process, blatant misogyny and overall appearance. He traveled to the Philippines to meet his girlfriend Rosemarie on season four.

Big Ed, like Geoffrey, has several tattoos straight from the 90s. In a hilarious shower scene, we saw Ed rocking two rune-like symbols (possible Celtic) on each bicep and he appears to have either tribal or Sanskirt on his back.

Erika

Erika was another fresh face of season four of “90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days,” and this Australian photographer welcomed American girlfriend Stephanie to stay with her during the show.

Erika is an avid tattoo lover and unlike Geoffrey or Big Ed, most of her collection appears to be quite modern. Erika loves bright and colorful fashion, beauty and accessories, which translates over into her tattoo collection. Much of her collection is inspired by popular culture and she’s collected pieces from Disney films, “Labyrinth,” “RuPaul’s Drag Race” and more.

Koala-t content right here Did you know koalas, much like me, can sleep for up to 18 hours a day? Some people think this is because koalas get ‘high’ from eating eucalyptus leaves – this is actually a myth! It’s because their diet of these leaves is so low in nutrients that they need to conserve their energy. ⠀ ⠀ What’s your favourite australian animal? I’m a huuuuuge lover of dingoes and snakes personally ⠀ ⠀ #90dayfiance #beforethe90days #90dayfiancebeforethe90days #tlc #realitytv #loveislove #lgbtq #lgbtqia #lgbt #samesexcouple #ldr #longdistancerelationship #longdistance #australianfashion #adelaidefashion #melbournefashion #manicpanic #manicpanichothotpink #evohair #handmadeaustralia #koalasofinstagram #koala #marsupial #australianwildlife #australianoutback #australianwildlifephotography #animalrescue

⁣I’m about to be on one of the biggest reality tv shows I’ve ever heard of. Those are words I never thought I’d say – and although I am so excited about it, there is also fear of my own vulnerability. My whole life is about to go on display. My heart, my emotions, my personality, my people, and my experiences. I can’t wait to give everyone a glimpse into my world and let y’all get to know the sparkly, happy, fun gal I am. This is an amazing, brilliant, fantastic adventure that I am so grateful to be a part of!! But oh boy, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t slightly nervous! ⠀ ⠀ It’s so important at times like this to really FEEL what you need to feel and to grow through those feelings of fear and vulnerability – which is exactly what I’ve been doing. I’ve been riding the wave of my own feelings and allowing myself to develop and dive deep within myself to learn more about who I am and how to be the best version of myself. Surrounding myself with my loved ones and doing things that make my soul sing. ⠀ ⠀ I guess what I’m here to say is that although a core element of my personality is that bright, bubbly, glittery little Aussie – I have my moments too where I don’t feel that way. I will always be honest and open about that and encourage people to use their darkness to create light. ⠀ ⠀ This is a reminder to always be kind and loving and genuine with yourself AND others. That’s all ❤⠀ ⠀ #90dayfiance #beforethe90days #90dayfiancebeforethe90days #tlc #realitytv #bodypositivity #positivemindset #pinklovers #adelaidefashion #melbournefashion #confidence #vulnerable #selfportrait #lifephotography #pinkhair #purplehair #girlswithtattoos

She has two full sleeves and to this day encourages Zied to wear temporary pieces on social media.

I’ve been asked about my tattoos a lot lately, so I thought I’d post these. These are about a year old. Most of them have a meaning, but some I got just because I loved them. I have no plans to get more. And I have no plans to remove any. . . . . . #90dayfiance #tattoos #beforethe90days #90dayfiancememes #realitytv #TLC #beforethe90dayfiance #90dayfiancebeforethe90days #rebeccaandzied #90df
