She further told the British news outlet, "Tattoos are one of the ways that people express their personality. But if you ask people about the meaning behind them, they often don’t really know why they were drawn to a certain type of tattoo. They might want some Chinese writing, or a tribal band and have absolutely no idea why they feel instinctively drawn to that."
Andrea elaborated, saying, "Sometimes their subconscious hasn’t made peace with something traumatic that has happened in a past life and that’s why they want to mark it on themselves."
