Sometimes celebrity relationships end just as quickly as they began, but not before the couple has tattooed a symbol of their love on their bodies. Many of these celebrities end up regretting their tattoos and have them removed or redesigned into something else. Other celebs want to take on new careers later in life that require them to have fewer tattoos. Here's a look at some top-name celebs who regretted their ink:
Nick Carter and Paris Hilton
Nick Carter and Paris Hilton only dated for seven months, but it was still enough time for them to get tattoos in honor of their relationship. Nick had "Paris" tattooed on his wrist while Paris had "Nick" tattooed on her derrière. When the couple split, Paris didn’t shop around at a tattoo supplies shop for a way to remove her tattoo. She went straight to the pros and had her ink removed with lasers. Nick had his tattoo covered with a skull and the words "Old Habits Die Hard."

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline
Britney Spears and Kevin Federline had an infamous whirlwind romance that ended quickly in an annulled marriage. During the time they were together, the two had dice tattooed on their arms, Britney's in pink and Kevin's in blue. Both had their tattoos removed via laser tattoo removal after they split.
50 Cent
Curtis Jackson, better known as 50 Cent, has been widely recognized for his numerous tattoos. But now that he's pursuing other career options aside from being a rapper, he's beginning to have more and more of them removed. Covering his tattoos with makeup when he's shooting a movie takes as long as four hours, which is why 50 Cent is now regretting all that ink.

Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp fell madly in love with Winona Ryder and had "Winona Forever" tattooed on his arm to declare his undying love for her. But after the relationship ended, he had three letters removed from her name, so the tattoo now reads "Wino Forever."

Kelly Ripa
Kind of funny seeing this wholesome, girl-next-door celebrity in the same group as 50 cent. But, like all the celebs in this post, she’s got a tattoo she wishes she wouldn’t have. Saying it will forever remind her of youthful stupidity, the rose on her inner left ankle is definitely visible. Just when we thought she wasn’t in love with the idea of tattoos, she goes and gets another. This one is the last name of her husband and children, Consuelos, in pretty lettering across her inside wrist. Let’s hope this isn’t one she regrets later.
