Ariana Grande receives a new tattoo honoring Pete Davidson and his family

For all those dissidents still clinging to suspicions about the emerging gravity of Ariana Grande's and Pete Davidson's relatively new relationship, it might be time to start thinking about letting go. Example: Ariana Grande is said to have received a new tattoo that is of particular importance to Pete Davidson and his family. Specifically, according to a handful of reports that began circulating over the weekend, it appears that Grande's freshly stamped ink is intended to honor the memory of Davidson's father, who was killed during the 11 September.

Of course, the fact that Grande decided to get the tattoo in the first place – if the reports on its meaning are true – is not necessarily the marker of engagement, as far as she relationship with Davidson is concerned. That being said, it is hard to believe that the singer of "Dangerous Woman" (or anyone else) would feel comfortable buffering her body permanently with a personal marker if important of her father-in-law's life if she and Davidson were at least sure enough that they are there for the long run. With regard to the statements of love and partnership, it seems reasonable to say that it is a big problem.

So, let's talk about Grande's new ink, is not it? According to a recent report by Just Jared Jr., the 25-year-old No Tears Left To Cry was apparently sighted with a small tattoo on her left ankle during a public outing over the weekend -end. This is no exception to the norm for Grande, who has shown a lot of ink on social media lately. But it was the nature of this particular tattoo, as well as its seemingly powerful meaning, which drew the attention of the public. According to Just Jared Jr., Grande's tattoo consists of a series of particularly significant numbers: 8418.

Referring to the new tattoo reported by Grande, the point of sale suggests that the digital sequence could be a commemorative sign intended to honor the father of his fiance. , Scott Davidson. As several reports have noted, Davidson's father was a firefighter who died at work on September 11 and 8418 was his badge number. The photo accompanying Just Jared's report – which seems to describe a close-up of Grande's tattoo – is rather grainy, so it's true that its content is a bit difficult to decipher. But still, having examined the snapshot, the tattoo interpretation of the shot definitely seems like a pretty close reading on the dot.

Suffice it to say that Twitter fans have been everywhere in the news tattoo news of Great – as well as its possible meaning. Accompanying two photos side by side of Grande (the first picture is his hand in hand with Davidson, the second picture is a zoom shot of his tattoo at the ankle), the Twitter account @CurrentCulture echoes La Just Jared Jr. theory on its deep meaning, writing,

The tattoo reads "8418", which happens to be the same badge # that Pete's father wore on the day of the attack. 11/9. His father was a firefighter, who died as a hero trying to save the victims.

For skeptics who are currently thinking something like, "Uh, is not it a long way? – This is not, really. As Jared Jr. rightly pointed out in his report, the meaning of Grande's tattoo of "8418" was probably a little easier to grasp than it might otherwise have been, given that Davidson has the same tattoo on his rod.

Fans of the allegedly engaged couple know that the matching tats seem to have become a pretty happening for both Great and Davidson, with the "H2GKMO" (that's "honest of God"), "for the record" ink that they both unveiled on social media last week. Of course, this is in addition to their matching assorted cloud tattoos, as well as those decidedly Great-theme (a pair of black rabbit ears and the initials "AG" respectively) that Davidson acquired in early June.

That being said, the ink-related romance aside, the latest Great tattoo honoring the memory of Davidson's father feels like a kind of very different statement. So, although there has been no official confirmation as to the true meaning behind Grande's "8418" tattoo signaled, it certainly seems yet another example of what appears to be an incredibly supportive emotional partnership between her and Davidson.
