Melanie Griffith's New Ink: A Tribute to Her Kids
10 Jul
Summary
- Griffith debuted a crossword-style tattoo honoring her four children.
- The tattoo covers a previous ink dedicated to ex-husband Antonio Banderas.
- She was recently seen in Beverly Hills sporting the new family tribute.
Melanie Griffith recently made a rare public appearance in Beverly Hills, drawing attention with a new tattoo that honors her children. The 68-year-old actress sported a Frida Kahlo Daft Punk T-shirt, light blue jeans, sandals, and lace gloves. Her arm tattoo, a crossword-style design featuring the names of her four kids—Stella, Alexander, Dakota, and stepson Jesse—was prominently displayed.
This new inking, which Griffith debuted in July 2023, replaced a heart-shaped tattoo of ex-husband Antonio Banderas' name. Griffith and Banderas were married for 18 years before their 2014 split. They share one daughter, Stella, born in 1996.
During their marriage, Banderas became a stepfather to Griffith's children from previous relationships: Alexander and Dakota. He also has a stepson, Jesse, from his previous marriage. Despite their divorce finalized in 2015, Griffith and Banderas have maintained a close friendship.
