Dove told Drew she got her first piece of ink when she was 14, saying, “I had this best friend when I was younger. They were very fun, and I was very introverted, and she had wanted this tattoo for a long, long time.”

Surprisingly, Drew shared a similar story. “I'm so torn. Now I'm 48 and a mom of two girls, and it all comes full circle,” the Santa Clarita Diet actor explained. “'When did you get your first tattoo?' And I'm like 13.” She then joked, “I love illegal tattooing!"
The pair bonded over their regretful teenage decisions, with both women commenting on how their initial ink hadn’t aged well. “It's horrendously ugly,” the Descendants alum said of her first tattoo. And the Ever After star agreed, “So is mine!”
