What your favourite celebrities' TATTOOS say about them, according to science - from Ed Sheeran to Post Malone...and even The Rock
But it's not just these inked-up stars who are fond of tattoos.
Other A-listers who have secretly hit the studio include Keke Palmer, Tom Holland, and even Kendall Jenner, who has the word 'meow' tattooed onto her inner lip.
So, do these inkings change your perception of these stars?
In a recent study, researchers from Michigan State University revealed how people make judgements based on someone's tattoos.
According to their analysis, people like Ed Sheeran with cheerful, colourful tattoos are seen as more agreeable.
In contrast, people like Zayn Malik, who opt for tattoos featuring death imagery, are more likely to be rated as unpleasant.
'While people often believe tattoos reveal deep truths about someone's personality, those impressions usually do not hold up,' said William J Chopik, lead author of the study.
Cheerful and colourful tattoos
In the study, the team showed 375 tattoos to 30 people, who were asked to rate the personalities of the people behind them.
The results revealed that people with cheerful and colourful tattoos were more likely to be seen as agreeable.
'If tattoos had more life (vs. death) imagery or were comforting (vs. disturbing), the participant was rated as more agreeable,' the team said.
Stars with colourful tattoos include singer Ed Sheeran, and TV presenter Ulrika Jonsson.
Sheeran, 34, - whose 60 strong collection of tattoos includes cartoon penguin Pingu, a Heinz Ketchup label and a gingerbread man - has spent more than 40 hours getting inked by Derby-based tattooist Kevin Paul.
But fans 'forgot' how many colourful tattoos Ed had across his chest and back, as he showed them off in a recent TikTok video.
Meanwhile, Jonsson took to Instagram in 2022 to reveal a colourful flower tattoo on her arm, coloured in a bright pink.
British model, Cara Delevingne has more than 20 tattoos to her name, including an abstract face on the back of her left arm
Expressionist tattoos
Expressionist tattoos tend to convey 'strong human emotions, passions, anxieties and general alienation around a loss of spirituality', according to Tattoo Filter.
But if you have one, you might be seen as unconscientious, according to the study.
British model, Cara Delevingne has more than 20 tattoos to her name, including an abstract face on the back of her left arm.
Actor Chris Hemsworth, meanwhile, surprised fans in 2022 when he unveiled a geometric design on the inside of his right forearm.
Large, traditional-looking tattoos
When you think of tattoos, large, traditional-looking designs might be the first to spring to mind.
And according to the reseachers, people with these kinds of tattoos are seen as more outgoing.
'If a tattoo was larger or was more traditional (vs. modern), the participant was rated as more extraverted,' the team explained.
Stars with large, traditional-looking tattoos include Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, who has a tribal-inspired tattoo spanning the width of his left shoulder to his forearm and chest, in homage to his Samoan roots.
Jason Momoa is also fond or a traditional tattoo, with a tribal shark-tooth pattern down his foream, inspired by his family's 'aumakua - a god in Hawaiin mythology.
Low quality tattoos
Many celebrities are guilty of getting low quality tattoos.
Back in 2011, actor Zac Efron showed off a tattoo on the side of his hand, reading 'YOLO' - an acronym for 'you only live once'.
However, it seems the actor came to his senses, with the tattoo having subsequently been removed.
Meanwhile, rapper Gucci Mane is known for his ice cream face tattoo, which he has admitted he probably wouldn't get again.
Unfortunately for these stars, people with low quality tattoos tend to be seen as neurotic, according to the study.
'Someone with a low-quality tattoo may be perceived as less conscientious as others may assume they are less concerned with identifying an excellent artist or satisficing with the quality of their tattoo,' the researchers said.
Tattoos with death imagery
From skulls and skeletons to Grim Reapers, many popular tattoos feature death imagery.
But if you have a tattoo with one of these symbols, you might be seen as less agreeable.
'If tattoos had more life (vs. death) imagery or were comforting (vs. disturbing), the participant was rated as more agreeable,' the researchers explained in the study.
In 2020, singer Post Malone debuted a collection of death-related tattoos on the left side of his shaved head, including a spider, a skull, and succubus.
Meanwhile, singer Zayn Malik has a skull in the middle of his chest, set amongst dozens of other tattoos.
'Given that death- and disgust-related imagery tends to increase morbid thoughts, it also stands to reason that raters might think people with tattoos of death might be more likely to be higher in neuroticism or lower in agreeableness (compared to those with more life imagery),' the researchers added.
WHAT ARE PEOPLE'S BIGGEST BODY ART REGRETS?
Dr Stephen Crabbe, a linguistics expert from the University of Portsmouth, commissioned a survey of 1,000 UK residents who had already confessed to regretting their tattoos.
Around 18 per cent of the UK population aged 18 years and older admits to having body art, according to the study.
They found out what tattoos they had, why they got them in the first place, and why they changed their mind about them.
Almost one third (31.34 per cent) of men and 24.33 per cent of women regretted daubing someone's name permanently on their body.
Specific designs stood out for condemnation. For men, a tribal theme (12.81 per cent) and Asian characters (12.53 per cent) were the other most popular designs they held regrets about getting.
Women felt star constellations (15.95 per cent) and Asian characters (12.64 per cent) were most likely designs to regret.
One aspect found by the survey was that 15.64 per cent of women felt judged by their tattoo, compared to just 9.54 per cent of men.
Around one third (29.50 per cent) said they had considered getting a tattoo removed but hadn't yet gone through with it and around one quarter (24.50 per cent) already had removed a tattoo.
Around one third (28.30 per cent) answered that they would rather cover the tattoo up than have it removed and just 17.70 per cent admitted that they would leave the tattoo as it was and not cover it up.

Why celebs think cigarettes are 'cool' again: Bizarre reason stars shun vapes in favour of real tobacco, as Beyonce and Dua Lipa lead the legions lighting up
From Beyonce lighting up on stage to Dua Lipa dangling a cigarette between her fingers in a holiday snap shared on Instagram, celebrities are entering a new era of outright flaunting the dirty habit they were once at pains to keep a secret. Pop stars with a young fan base went through a long phase of keeping any penchant for cigarettes as private as possible, for fear of being accused of promoting bad habits - but that era appears to be at an end. Stars including Paul Mescal, Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams have all been spotted smoking in public - and crucially they've opted for traditional cigarettes rather than vapes or e-cigarettes. While nicotine is known to increase the risk of at least 16 types of cancer and contributing to 20 per cent of preventable deaths, vaping has equally disasteful problems of its own - that have nothing to do with the health risks. Last month, the sale of disposable vapes was banned in the UK to discourage children from taking up the habit and to try to mitigate the environmental impact. Vaping is also closely associated with teenagers, who would have in previous generations experimented with smoking, and middle aged addicts trying to quit cigarettes, with the the 45-54 age group seeing the largest increase in vaping rates. Stars including Paul Mescal (pictured), Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams, Dua Lipa and Beyonce have all been spotted smoking, as vapes and other quitting aids dwindle in popularity - having been deemed designed for middle-aged people or teens So perhaps it's no surprise that smoking cigarettes has enjoyed renaissance over the past year with superstars resuming smoking in an apparent bid to 'look cool'. It's a habit celebrated by the Instagram account 'Cigfluencers' documents stars smoking alongside the bio: 'aka HOT PEOPLE keeping the art of SMOKING & BEING COOL alive…'. One of the world's leading lung oncologists, Dr James Wilson, told MailOnline that after an explosion in popularity for vaping, a return to traditional smoking is not surprising. 'Vaping now has a curious allure, appealing to two very different groups, young and old,' he explained. 'We have traditional smokers attempting to stop using cigarettes, and teenagers attracted to the novelty of e-cigarettes. Vaping has become associated with image rather than health. 'So, much like the 1950s, when smoking was regarded as trendy, today's young people are attracted to vaping for its perceived coolness. And of course failing to see the risks associated with addiction. A simple image-driven appeal can lead some back to smoking cigarettes, perhaps when the novelty of vaping wears off. 'Society is beginning to acknowledge that while vaping may assist some in quitting smoking, it also risks normalising tobacco use for our vital younger generation. The benefit of quitting cigarettes versus the adoption of vaping is something we must honestly address in this country. 'Education on the risks involved is key. Oddly, this echoes the kind of cyclical nature of smoking's desirability. From the mid-20th century to today, it is a history we need to discuss. 'The reality is that there's nothing glamorous about nicotine addiction, no matter how it is delivered. Both ultimately take a toll on general health, skin, lungs, heart, lifestyle, and overall vitality. That doesn't sound too cool to me.' In addition he warned that celebs who favour smoking over vaping are taking a serious risk with their health. 'Smoking is very simply more harmful than vaping,' Dr Wilson said. 'This is due to the specific toxic substances involved and the subsequent biological effects. 'The promotion of smoking, especially by huge stars like Beyoncé, does two things, it reinforces its acceptance and normalises a dangerous habit to vulnerable young people. Research shows us that early exposure to smoking imagery does increase the likelihood of smoking initiation. 'When tobacco is combusted, we know it unleashes thousands of harmful chemicals, from tar to carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, and various carcinogens. These substances damage lung tissue directly and also impact the cardiovascular system. That means an increased risk of heart disease and stroke. Tar is particularly worrying as we know it accumulates in lung tissue, leading to COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and emphysema, conditions that severely impair lung function. 'Vaping is simply heating a liquid solution, usually with propylene glycol or vegetable glycerin. Vapes are not without risk, but we know they contain fewer harmful substances than cigarettes. It is the absence of combustion in the vaping process that means many of the dangerous byproducts are significantly reduced. The latest research shows that vaping presents health risks. But cigarette smoking delivers a far greater level of toxic compounds. 'The biological impacts of smoking, particularly on adolescent lungs, can hinder growth and development and also long-term respiratory issues, plus a potential addiction to nicotine. 'The long-term consequences from smoking are indisputable. In my clinic in I see cancer, cardiovascular diseases, a reduced quality of life, all directly because of cigarette use.' GRACIE ABRAMS The singer and nepo-baby, who is the daughter of Star Wars titan JJ Abrams, came under fire last weekend for being spotted with a cigarette at Glastonbury. Fans took to social media to blast the star, 25, with references to her 2021 song Camden at the helm of the critique over her smoking. In the song, Gracie utters: 'At least I'll never turn to cigarettes / My brother shielded me from all of that / He said that smoking was a killer.' Taking to X, users penned: 'Let's think about our choices, Gracie... Can't afford to smoke with that voice... Smoking? This explains her out of breath performances... She takes her career as seriously as we would imagine nepo babies to.' PAUL MESCAL Gracie's boyfriend Paul meanwhile is also a fan of puffing on a nicotine stick. The Irish hunk is often seen smoking and even gave an interview in which he detailed his inability to quit while bulking up to star in last year's Gladiator 2. Despite honing his buff body with a strict diet and gruelling gym routine, he admitted he refused to sacrifice his two main vices. He said: 'I did everything he asked but I like to drink, and I like to smoke, so I drew a line in the sand where those were concerned'. Paul is known to rub shoulders with fellow A-list puffers, as he was recently spotted enjoying a cigarette with Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Natalie Portman. CHARLI XCX As the founder of the 'Brat Summer', Charli XCX is a strong promoter of smoking. The British star described the concept of 'Brat' as 'a pack of cigs, a Bic lighter and a strappy white top with no bra'. Such is her passion for smoking that at her 32nd birthday party in LA last year, her fellow pop star Rosalía gifted her a bouquet of cigarettes. DUA LIPA Dua Lipa publicly stated that she quit smoking, yet there were late instances in which she was seen with cigarettes after this announcement. In December 2021, she mentioned quitting due to laryngitis and for her 'Future Nostalgia' tour. However, in the summer of 2023, she was photographed smoking. More recently, she posted photos on Instagram where she is seen holding a cigarette, seemingly in defiance of a no-smoking sign. DOJA CAT Last year, Doja Cat was seen puffing on a cigarette - despite extensive discussion of her plans to quit both vaping and traditional smoking. The musician enjoyed a smoke despite previously claiming she was 'nicotine free' through the help of hypnotherapy, and undergoing tonsil surgery to remove an abscess in 2022. In April 2023, Doja spoke about smoking nicotine-free vapes during a conversation with Interview Magazine: 'I haven't smoked nicotine in like 10 weeks... 'And then Elle just came out with a shoot where I'm smoking a cigarette, but it was when I was smoking. They've had these photos in this interview for a thousand years, and now people are like, 'Oh my God, she's smoking again.'... 'But I don't smoke. I'm nicotine free. And I love nicotine free vapes. Any zero nicotine vape doesn't hit, it just feels like you're breathing and it's like, 'What is this?' It feels pointless. But this thing really feels… It hits, it has the same effect. 'I also got hypnotherapy. And it worked, like immediately. I did it and then just didn't smoke after that, forever'. The next month she was blasted for vaping at the Met Gala, despite Anna Wintour banning smoking and it being nearly a year after she had an abscess surgically removed from her throat. Although seemingly simply part of her stage act, Beyonce proved cigarettes are certainly the accessory du jour at her Cowboy Carter tour stop in Paris last month. The superstar pulled out a cigarette mid-performance and started pretending to puff on the prop during her show. As seen in fan-taken footage at previous shows, she takes 'smoking hot' literally during the gig and goes onstage to theatrically light a piano on fire. SABRINA CARPENTER Sabrina Carpenter - known for her sizzling, oversexualized image - used a fork as a cigarette holder in the music video for her latest single Manchild. The song, which was released last month, saw her sparking up a cigarette in a petrol station while sitting on a retro car with a fur coat. She has also been pictured puffing on cigars at various times Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, Justine Triet, Swann Arlaud, and Sophie Mas backstage at the 2024 Academy Awards. It was reported in 2022 Kirsten and Jesse had kicked the habit for their children, however recent snaps appeared to indicate other ways. She is a long time smoker and has even been accused of losing her voice due to her habit.

Jessica Mulroney's life after being 'ditched' by Meghan Markle: Stylist with lustrous TV contracts went from flying high as a VIP at the royal wedding to monetising Instagram Stories - after 'drift' with BFF following 'white privilege' row
They were once the besties that enjoyed soaring up to the height of the A-lister world together; but after a 'white privilege' row in the light of the Black Lives Matter movement saw Jessica Mulroney being dropped from lustrous media contracts, she and Meghan Markle appear to have long drifted apart. And without the clout of the Duchess of Sussex at her aide, the stylist, 45 - whose daughters were the the flower girls at the royal wedding in 2018 - seems to have taken to more grounded methods of making a living among the VIPs, including, most recently, monetised Instagram Stories. The influencer, who has been setting up a following as a fashion page on the platform, over the weekend shared a link encouraging followers to sign up for 'exclusive content'. According to Meta, Instagram subscriptions allow you to create posts, highlights and broadcasts 'for your most engaged followers at a monthly fee'. It's a far cry from Jessica's earlier gigs - as the woman who once dressed the First Lady of Canada and worked as a contributor for Good Morning America. Meanwhile Meghan - who herself has been curating a social media presence since January, with a whopping 3.9 million followers on Instagram, a Netflix lifestyle series and a new Montecito-aesthetics-inspired brand - hasn't been linked to once-bestie since the fallout five years ago. Despite their close relationship, insiders claimed that the Duchess had permanently cut ties with Jessica in 2020, after she became embroiled in a 'feud' with influencer Sasha Exeter. Jessica is said to have 'taken offence' to a 'generic call to action' post Sasha had shared about the Black Lives Matter movement. And without the clout of the Duchess of Sussex at her aide, the stylist, 45 - whose daughters were the the flower girls at the royal wedding in 2018 - seems to have taken to more grounded methods of making a living among the VIPs, including, most recently, monetised Instagram Stories In a follow-up video, Sasha said: 'What happened next was a series of very problematic behaviour and antics. 'I'm by no means calling Jess a racist but what I will say is this: She is very well aware of her wealth, perceived power and privilege because of the colour of her skin and that, my friends, gave her the momentary confidence to come for my livelihood in writing. Textbook white privilege really, in my personal opinion.' Following the claims, Jessica issued three public apologies but was dropped by a number of television networks, including Good Morning America. In one instance, commenting on a video clip shared by Sasha, Jessica said she was 'unequivocally sorry', writing: 'As I told you privately, I have lived a very public and personal experience with my closest friend where race was front and centre. It was deeply educational.' Insiders then claimed that Meghan had permanently cut ties with Jessica after she became embroiled in a race row with the influencer. An insider told Page Six that the duo's relationship was already on the rocks because the Duchess felt that Jessica was trying to 'make a career out of the friendship.' 'The white privilege row has really given Meghan the excuse she was waiting for to cut Jess off for good,' the source said. 'I don't know what the tipping point was, but Jess has been on the outs for some time. Canadian TV network CTV also cut off ties with the stylist, revealing that it would be pulling all episodes of her wedding-themed reality TV show I Do Redo from its platform. Jessica also also stepped down from the board of directors of The Shoebox Project, the charity she co-founded a decade ago to 'provide gifts to women living in shelters or accessing community support,' according to public records. 'In light of recent events, the charity supports Jessica's decision to step away from the Board of Directors,' read a statement from the organization at the time. Jessica took a two-month break from social media - but six months after the scandal, she shared what were understood to be DMs and text messages between herself and Sasha that the National Post's columnist Barbara Kay called 'a complete exoneration of Jessica from all the false allegations of racist bullying.' Kay concluded that Jessica 'is innocent of the moral crimes she has been so unjustly charged with. She added: 'She did not deserve the reflexive shunning the accusations called forth. But she has no wish for revenge. She wants only to resume the profession she loves with honour and dignity.' Sasha does not appear to have commented further on this. After growing distant from Meghan, Jessica's fashion partnerships also appeared to dry up for a time. In September 2020, Jessica addressed the rumours of rift between her and the Duchess. She wrote on her Instagram Stories: 'I'm going to tell this once and for all. Meghan and I are family. 'She is the kindest friend and has checked up on me everyday.' Six months later, Jessica shared a photo of the flowers she received from Meghan on her 41st birthday, on which she wrote: 'LUCKIEST FRIEND XXXX, THX MM.' The following year however, it became increasingly evident that their friendship had soured. In June 2021, the mother-of-three posted a cryptic quote on her Instagram Story, which read: 'Life changes. You lose love. You lose friends. You lose pieces of yourself that you never imagined would be gone. Two months later, she told her followers: 'It can be lonely having the world, friends distance from you and not even ask how you are. But, thankfully, you find the things that truly matter…' The following year, Jessica posted a picture of a sign reading: 'You are not too sensitive. You are not overreacting. If it hurts you it hurts you.' She captioned the post: 'I wish I had a seen this a long time ago. I hope it makes a difference in your day too.' Since, Meghan seems to have kept a distance from her former pal - with no mention of her in Harry's book Spare or the couple's 2022 Netflix documentary. Jessica was also not invited to take part in the Duchess's most recent project - With Love, Meghan. The lack of friendship between the pair is starkly different to how they once were -Meghan raved about her best friend on her defunct lifestyle blog The Tig, and her sons and daughter appeared alongside Princess Charlotte and Prince George as page boys and flower girls at the wedding. Before she married Prince Harry, Meghan would often gush about Jessica online - with the pair often going on holidays together. In December 2015, the Duchess said that 'the room stops' whenever her friend 'shows up at an event'. Referencing the 1980s US sitcom Out of This World, Meghan compared Jessica to the show's heroine Evie (played by Maureen Flannigan) - who has the ability to freeze time. Gushing about the effect Jessica has on people, Meghan described her as 'savvy and fashionable and tres cool, and also va va va voom pritaaaay'. She continued: 'And here's the other thing - she also happens to be an incredible stylist, clothing the likes of Canada's First Lady, Sophie Trudeau.' In her 2022 Netflix documentary, Meghan shared footage of the night Prince Harry proposed in 2017 - where she FaceTimed her friend 'Jess' as she walked the grounds of Kensington Palace. The following year, Meghan then asked Jessica's three children John, Brian and Isabel to be in her wedding party - while the stylist was given a starring role as she entered St George's Chapel alongside the Princess of Wales. The day of the royal wedding Jessica shared snaps captioned: 'Proud friend. Proud mom.' While she was still living in Toronto, the Duchess was regularly pictured at glamorous events with the Canadian mother-of-three. Meghan was all over the stylist's social media page years ago, and Jessica is even understood to have helped pick out the wedding dress for Rachel Zane - the Duchess's character on Suits. Royal expert Katie Nicholl told Cosmopolitan in 2018: 'They went to the same yoga and Pilates and became firm friends. 'Meghan really looks up to Jessica. She thinks she's a talented person, a wonderful mother, and a great best friend.' Jessica also helped introduce Meghan to some of her famous friends, including singer Michael Bublé. The pair amped up their social media presence of each other in 2016 and 2017. Posting in February 2016, Jessica teased a trip to the Cayman Islands with her gal pal. She said: 'Girls trip has officially begun with @meghanmarkle (which means don't bother me unless you have to).' That summer, Jessica shared a slew of candid photos showing her and Meghan on holiday in Italy a month after her first date with Prince Harry. Instagram snaps showed the two women sipping cocktails at sunset and having fun in the sun on the Amalfi coast. Meghan's holiday to Positano was one of her last jaunts as a single girl before her engagement. Sharing one snap, Jessica wrote: 'Happy wife happy life #fakehoneymoon. #MJxItaly #positano #posivibes.' The duo had also posed for fun pictures in a Soho House photo booth - showing that the Duchess had perhaps for a while been a fan of the luxurious members' club chain where she and Prince Harry met up for a 2016 date. The same year also saw Jessica take to social media to regularly support Meghan on a number of initiatives the star was involved in. 'This woman is busy,' she wrote in one upload. 'She juggles more in a day than most do in a week. 'And yet she still finds time to travel to Rwanda with @worldvision and creates global awareness for the water crisis. 'She is a boss. And I adore her #worldvision #watercolorproject @meghanmarkle.' And Jessica was there during the early days of Meghan's romance with Harry. The fledgling couple spent time with the Mulroneys, part of the Canadian political dynasty, before their relationship was made public in 2016. A source years ago told E! News: 'When Harry first started going to Toronto to visit Meghan, it was Ben and Jessica who had them over at their house for dinners because it wasn't easy for them to go out in public without the risk of getting spotted.' Jessica was also there for Meghan's first royal appearance at the Invictus Games in 2017. She continued to offer guidance as to what Meghan should wear for significant occasions. Jessica was also among several famous faces who organised Meghan's baby shower in New York City, which is understood to have cost a whopping $500,000. The lavish trip included a stay of at least two nights in the $75,000-per- night penthouse suite at The Mark Hotel, which is believed to have been rented for two nights, a roughly $420 dinner at The Polo Bar, over $14,000 for protection, and thousands of dollars in gifts. In 2019, Jessica said her life is an 'open book' but when it comes to a certain few things – such as her friendship with Meghan – her lips are completely sealed. 'This is my first interview that I've done since the wedding or anything,' Jessica told Harper's Bazaar. 'Listen, every person has to have a bit of privacy in their life. There are certain things I hold very dear and secret... There are things I'll never talk about for sure. 'My life is an open book, but there's always a few secret pages in the back that nobody will be able to read.' Meanwhile she also travelled to London to visit the Duchess after she welcomed her son Archie in May 2019. Jessica was spotted at Toronto's Pearson International Airport before boarding a flight to London with her five-year-old daughter Ivy in tow to visit the royals. 'Packing for our first Mother/Daughter trip and I'm screaming with excitement. Are matching shoes too much.' She also ramped up her defences of Meghan on Instagram, often posting cryptic messages which appeared to be directed at critics of the Sussexes. But following the influencer scandal, rumours of a Meghan and Jessica fallout kept brewing, going between hot and cold. Jessica sent social media into overdrive after posting a cryptic message about her 'true friends'. 'Thank you to our true friends for sticking by us. We could never have made it without you,' she wrote on Instagram. 'Silver lining: we finally know the a******s who we thought were our friends. Best gift we could have ever been given.' Since then, Jessica has not commented on allegations of her drifting apart from Meghan. Meanwhile, as the backlash against Jessica began mounting, Meghan remained quiet and distant on the matter and has not publicly spoken about her friend in years. One source told Daily Mail their friendship is no longer 'what it once was,' adding that this was due to the pair having 'just grown apart' and not because of the fallout between Jessica and Sasha. The insider added: 'Of course, Meghan has been worried about Jess. She'll always have love for her.' Despite this, Jessica once again came out in support of the Duchess ahead of her and Harry's broadcast of her bombshell CBS interview with chatshow legend Oprah Winfrey. The Canadian stylist said no one 'has ever had to deal with the pressure, the politics and the press' like Meghan in an Instagram post. Uploading a photo of the pair of them, she added: 'In the face of it all, I have never seen her wave from kindness, empathy and love.' Meghan that year also sent Jessica a huge bouquet of flowers to mark her birthday. Jessica shared a snap on her Instagram page of a large bunch of pink roses in a glass vase, penning: 'Luckiest friend, thanks MM.' It seems that since the fallout, Jessica has tried to rebuild her brand - this time, without Meghan by her side. After years of working with high-end designers, the mother has now partnered up with Canadian high street label Aritizia. She has also secured deals with the online retailers Revolve and Fwrd. 'January was the busiest yet most fulfilling month I've had in many years,' Jessica told her followers in 2024 when she shared video highlights of a trip to Los Angeles where she was 'working with and styling some of the most wonderful people and event'. After stepping back from The Shoebox Project in 2020, Jessica also appears to have worked her way back into the charity's good books. In November 2023, she attended the fundraising party with her daughter Ivy. Posting from the event, she wrote: 'Every year I am in awe of your generosity and support. What a night raising over 25k for women impacted by homelessness.' Although she didn't attend the event, the mother-of-three plugged the 2023 Canadian Arts & Fashion Awards on Instagram. She wrote: 'There is so much talent in this country and I thank you for always making me feel beautiful in your designs. Good luck tonight. 'Despite everything going on in the world, it is still important to celebrate our own.' In July 2023, she also shared 'a little a preview' of a photoshoot she did in Italy with her Instagram followers. She captioned the post: 'Makeup and fancy free. Can't wait to share the entire piece.' In response to two comments asking if the shoot was for Vogue, Jessica didn't shut down the suggestion and answered with heart emojis. Not long after, in a post she later deleted, Jessica captioned a carousel of photos with the hashtags '#Vogue #Italy #FashionSpread.' What's more, Jessica also teased a potential I Do, Redo comeback last summer. She wrote on Instagram: 'If anyone knows me or what I love to do, it involves surprising brides and grooms with the wedding of their dreams. Finally, Im getting back into the game. 'Coming to a screen near you.' Throughout 2024, Jessica also shared snaps of 'dress fittings', and captured her and husband Ben's attendance at the The Horatio Alger Award - awarded to 'distinguished Americans to individuals who have achieved success in the face of adversity'. 'Spending time with the incredible members and touring some of the more historic destinations in the city were both a close second to hearing the inspirational stories of some of the most impressive young scholars in Canada and the US,' she wrote in the caption. 'My father in law was so proud of his membership. Ben and I look forward to continuing his work with them in our own way.' Meanwhile in February - sporting a very glamorous make-up looks, she penned: 'Doing this thing today for work with a brand I truly love. As I get older, I've gotten over the travel of it all. Nothing compares to spending time with my kids at home. Absolutely nothing.' As per her Instagram bio, Jessica is also the founder of the Female Empowerment Project, which is 'a group of female experts in the world of finance, law, manufacturing, marketing and social media mentoring small female founded businesses in the US and Canada'.

Tim Tebow and Miss Universe wife welcome first child together... and reveal heartwarming story behind baby's name
Tim Tebow and his Miss Universe wife have welcomed their first child together. The 37-year-old college football icon and his model wife Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters announced the news with an emotional post on Instagram on Monday. The couple shared a series of black-and-white photos of themselves in the hospital alongside their new daughter. The caption read: 'Our daughter is here! We couldn't be more grateful for the blessing and gift of this new little life. 'We're so grateful to the whole medical team that assisted us in the best way possible during my labor and delivery. From our doctor to our nurses and all the hospital staff — we are so grateful and thankful for you. 'To my sweet friend @hannahjanoe thank you for capturing one of the most special moments of our lives so perfectly. 'Thank you to everyone who's been praying with us over her arrival. We are so incredibly thankful for all of the love and support we've felt. 'We can't wait to share her name with you soon'. However, it didn't take long for that announcement. Just hours later, the couple returned to Instagram to share a joint post which revealed their daughter's name. The post read: 'Meet our daughter, Daphne Reign Tebow. 'Daphne is a name that's been close to my heart since I was a little girl. I never got to meet my mom's mother, but her sister, Daphne, stepped in as a grandma figure to me. 'And Reign… it's a name that holds so much meaning. But more than anything, her name reminds us that when you're adopted into God's family, you become a child of the King. You were made to rule and reign—not in power, but in purpose, love, and identity. 'So here she is — our daughter. Our answered prayer. Daphne Reign Tebow — created in the image of God.
