AceShowbiz - Melanie Griffith has got rid of her love tribute to her ex-husband Antonio Banderas. Years after they finalized their divorce, the actress has finally covered the faint trace of her old heart-shaped tattoo of the Spanish actor.
The "Working Girl" star debuted her fresh ink to replace her old tattoo when she stepped out in Los Angeles on Monday, July 10. In photos circulating online, the 65-year-old was wearing a sleeveless black top to show off her new tattoo on the upper side of her arm.
Melanie now sports the names of her four children on her arm, which are arranged in crossword style. Her children include daughter Stella, 26, whom she shares with Antonio, as well as stepson Jesse Johnson, 40, and daughter Dakota Johnson, 33, from her marriage to actor Don Johnson, as well as son Alexander Bauer, 37, whom she shares with her second husband Steven Bauer.
The "Mulholland Falls" actress paired the black tank top with white maxi skirt. She also wore black sandals, black gloves and glasses as she carried a black handbag.
Melanie and Antonio got married in 1996 after a whirlwind romance that began when they worked on 1996's comedy "Two Much". They called it quits in June 2014 after 18 years of marriage with the actress filing for divorce from the actor/director.
The "Automata" actress cited irreconcilable differences as the reason of the split. She asked for both child support and sole physical and joint legal custody of their then-minor daughter Stella.
Their divorce was finalized in December 2015. According to court documents, Melanie and Antonio had to sell their house in Los Angeles and split the profits. Melanie got their house in Aspen, Colorado, and half of all profits, royalties and residuals Antonio earned from 2004-2014.
Following their split, Melanie also began laser treatment to remove the heart tattoo dedicated to the "Puss in Boots" star.
