Stephanie Davis has a new tattoo on her wrist, and there's a devastating reason behind her new ink.
The former Hollyoaks star already had a number of tattoos, including a design on her thigh depicting a woman crying into a glass of wine. The actress has successfully beaten an alcohol addiction in recent years after spending eight weeks in rehab.
She was joined by her boyfriend, Joe Mckalroy, and his mum Jane to get a new symbol tattoo on Tuesday. Joe and Jane got the same tattoo themselves.

The three each got a semi colon inked onto their wrists, in memory of Joe's late brother Sam. Sharing a post on Instagram, Stephanie said: "On the 3rd of June 2020 my partner Joe lost his brother Sam to suicide at 20 years old. Today Joes mum Jane, Joe & Me got matching semi colon tattoos in memory of Sam & to raise money for @itsworthtalkingabout
"If you need someone to talk to or lost someone to suicide or struggling there are groups on. PLEASE REACH OUT and don’t suffer in silence, It’s so important to talk, Please reach out, or just take a look…" [sic]
The post included photos of Sam with Joe and their mum, as well as their new tattoos. There was also a list of meetings for those in need of support.
Joe has previously been referred to by the star as her "soulmate". During a recent trip to Istanbul for surgery, she said Joe was "with her all the way" and "held her hand" during the operation.
