Brie Bella has been the heartbeat of the WWE Universe ever since she made her debut. Best known for her killer looks, Brie left no stone unturned in leaving a mark in the professional wrestling industry. Adding to her looks and personality, her partly hidden tattoos reveal a lot about the former WWE star.
Despite looking clean on most of her skin, Brie Bella has a tattoo, which only a few of her fans know of. She has a pair of bear claws inked on the lower part of her abdomen. The tattoo is quite below the waist and she had to unbutton her pants to let the audience have a good glance at the tattoo.
The former WWE star spoke to Tyler Henry of E!, where she revealed the story behind her tattoo. Brie’s bear claw tattoo is a symbol of her old love for her late ex-boyfriend. “He made me a bear that I could always keep by my bed, so I could always see him,” she said.

“I got these in memory of him. I got those when he passed,” said Brie Bella, speaking of the tattoo. The incident dates back to when Brie was just 18. A childhood trauma, the tattoo is still visible in many of Brie’s pictures, even after her marriage to Bryan Danielson aka Daniel Bryan.
Does Brie Bella have any other tattoos?
Other than the bear claw tattoo, Brie Bella had another tattoo inked when she was 15. While she decided on the fairy tattoo, Nikki Bella got a ‘heart on fire’ tattoo on their backside. But, in an episode of Total Divas in 2015, Brie got her fairy tattoo removed.
“I want to be a mom soon, so the fairy one just had to go. I don’t even know how to explain it to my kids,” she said, being ashamed of her childhood mistake. However, years later, Brie seems to have gone through a mind change. She decided to get inked yet again, but this time with a butterfly.

Sharing the update with her fans on Instagram, Brie posted a picture of the tattoo on her arm. “Getting a mini tattoo for my 40th. Thinking a butterfly…feels like this year, going into my 40th, has been a beautiful transformation,” she wrote. Unlike her teenage years, this tattoo seems to be quite thoughtful, and it is expected that the fans will continue to see it forever.
