According to MDN News, the fitness fanatic recently explained that she is using tattoos to cover the scars from the accident. She shared that she was not a big fan of tattoos before the accident. Part of the post read:

"To make life easy for myself, I decided to get inked so I could cover my scars bit by bit to clean the dirt. My mum supported my art because she knew that it would give me the peace I needed and boost my dead confidence at the time."

Speaking exclusively to Briefly News, a Cape Town-based tattoo artist, Musa Ally, said tattoos can be used as a form of self-expression. He said:

"Tattoos are a powerful form of self-expression. They allow individuals to carry meaningful art and personal stories on their skin, creating a unique, permanent canvas that represents their identity and experiences."

"In short, she is saying she used to hate tattoos when she was a normal person."

@MaggyValen commented:

"You know, as a country, we have a serious issue on our hands; we might have a Nigerian Miss South Africa at any time, and that's not good. Can we focus on that? Please don't bore us."

@KidiPotse added:

"We embrace our scars differently; with my accident scars, I completely did nothing about them, but since she's in the limelight, I can understand her covering herself with tattoos. She looks beautiful. ❤️"
