The sweet meaning behind Carrie Bickmore’s new ink
Carrie Bickmore has opened up about what her new ink means after showing it off during an episode of The Project.
The co-host was conducting an interview with heavily-tatted BMX rider Logan Martin when she joked that she looked like him in reference to the tattoos.
“I look very similar to that,” she said as she held up her arm and showed off heart tattoos on her wrist.
“I got two little love hearts on the weekend. Bad ass guys, bad ass.”
“You almost have as much as I do,” Logan joked.
Earlier on her radio show Carrie & Tommy, she said the new ink was in fact a tribute to her three-year-old daughter Adelaide.
“You may have seen on my Instagram a few weeks ago when I was away, Chris sent me a video of [her daughter] Addie,” she said.
“She was missing me and she has this little saying. She says to me, when she wants me to know that she loves me, this is what she says: ‘Hi mum I love you, heart to heart’.
“And she makes a little heart symbol with her fingers. I can't have her with me at all times because I've got stuff to do.
“So I thought, why not have it with me in spirit and I'll get two little hearts tattooed on my wrist so I can look down and always think of her saying, ‘I love you mum, heart to heart’.”
Carrie has three children - Oliver, 15, with her late husband Greg Lange, and two daughters, Adelaide and Evie, seven, with her partner Chris Walker.
