Here's What Lucy Hale's Tattoos Really Mean

Posted by Erma Hippe on Tuesday, June 11, 2024

Lucy Hale has a very simple, small sun tattoo on her lower back which can be seen in this Instagram photo. "I have a little, tiny sun that I got with my sister in honor of our grandmother," she told Refinery29 in 2017. Hale and her sister also share matching tattoos that read "I love you" in their grandmother's handwriting.

Per Refinery29, Hale also has at least three "quote" tattoos. One is a Biblical verse that reads: "Catch the foxes for us / the little foxes/ that spoil the vineyards/ for our vineyards are in blossom." She and her best friend also got matching tattoos that read: "Love her but leave her wild," which is a line from a poem by Atticus. Another one of Hale's quote tattoos — "Courage, dear heart" — comes from C.S. Lewis' "Chronicles of Narnia" series (via Just Jared Jr.).

Hale continues to add tattoos that are subtle but sweet tributes to her family members. Last June she got tattoos of the numbers 14, 16, and 20, which represent the birth years of her young nieces and nephew, as well as script of her beloved dog Elvis' name (via HelloGiggles).

Most recently, Allure reported in February that Hale had gotten a butterfly tattoo. She posted an Instagram photo of her new ink accompanied by the caption, "Rebirth."
