He has since removed the controversial tattoo done by tattoo artist Jonathan ‘JonBoy’ Valena, known for his work with Hailey Baldwin Bieber, Kendall Jenner and Justin Bieber, among others.

Some of his other tattoos include a gun on his hip bone and a matching tattoo with his sister Kaia Gerber inked on his arm, which reads ‘Kaia XXIII’.
