Tattoo artist Jenna Boyter stuns followers with a shocking tattoo story

Tattoo artist Jenna Boyter has gone viral after sharing a shocking tattoo story on TikTok.

Jenna, who lives in Florida, USA, begins her video revealing that she's often asked about the "weirdest" tattoo she's ever done, but tends to avoid talking about specific clients "because it's rude".

But it appears she's made an exception, assuring viewers that this was a good story.

"The shop that I used to work at was located next to a busy bar, so it wasn't uncommon for people to get a few drinks in them and then think that they would want to get tattooed," she explained.

Jenna went on to recall how one night a "lovely couple" entered the shop excitedly wanting to get portraits tattooed of each other.

Jenna initially refused as she doesn't do portrait tattoos, before the couple explained that they had already drawn the portraits for her to easily copy.

"They said, 'We have drawn them ourselves on a napkin. Little stick figure portraits, and we would like each other's faces on our wrists'," Jenna explained, showing a brief picture of the completed tattoos.

Jenna thought it was very cute, and went ahead with inking the couple. Halfway through, however, she was stunned by a revelation.

"I am talking to them and they are telling me about their engagement plans. Their soon to be blended family. And I was like, 'How did you guys meet?'

"They met yesterday. Yesterday."

To date the surprising story has been watched almost 900,000 times, and received over 150,000 likes.

One commenter named Julissa called for a follow up. "I need a 'Where are they now' episode," she commented.

Another, TiJa, revealed she'd had a similar story with a couple making big plans very soon after meeting.

"When I worked in jewelry, I had a couple come in to look at engagement rings. I asked how long they'd been together.. it was their first date," she wrote.
