Jaden Hossler Covers Matching ‘3’ Tattoo He Got with Nessa Barrett

When Jaden Hossler and Nessa Barrett revealed their relationship in 2021, they got matching tattoos.

Only a few days after going public and telling photographers they’re the happiest they’ve ever been, the couple got a matching tattoo to further cement their bond. Jaden Hossler and Nessa Barrett matching tattoos went viral, and the topic was trending for a couple of days.

In April 2021, artist Isaac Pelayo shared the matching tattoo of the now-former love birds on his Instagram story. The number ‘3’ was tattooed on both TikTok stars, Barrett on her left thumb and Hossler on the right side of his neck.

It has been almost two years since the duo parted ways. Recently, eagle-eyed netizens noted that Hossler had removed the matching tattoo with his former girlfriend.

He replaced the ‘3’ tattoo on his neck with a star symbol. Fans and followers of Hossler and Barrett shared their opinions about the removal of the matching tattoo in the comment section of THETEATALK’s Instagram post.

One of them hoped that Barrett would move on like Hossler has. They wrote, “damn that boy is long moved on, hope Nessa can do the same soon (for her sake),” while another chimed, “Nessa needs to get a new man and get those tattoos covered.”

Many believed that it was Hossler’s new girlfriend, Stassie Karanikolaou, who made him remove the matching tattoo. A netizen penned, “His gf must be full of insecurities to make him cover those tattoos and make a matching one with him. I thought she is a grown woman.”

“Stas probably told him to cover them,” another opined. Many pointed out that it was weird that he only removed the matching tattoos he got with Barrett but not Mads Lewis.

Hossler and Lewis dated before the former got together with Barrett. During their relationship, the pair got a matching tattoo, but Hossler has not removed it to date.

A fan quipped, “But still has left or right side, whatever the one he got with Mads. Feels real personal lol,” and another commented, “But he kept the one he got with Mads, wow Jaden.”

However, many were happy for the singer. They applauded him for moving on from his past to a better future.

A fan commented, “Good for him new year new him,” and another wrote, “Now he can move on, it’s a new year.”

This is not the first time he removed a matching tattoo he got with Barrett. The duo had inked “Its you I welcome death with” together, but Hossler covered it up with a line back in August 2023.

It looks like he is slowly removing all the tattoos he got with Barrett or the ones that connect him to his relationship with her. It is unknown if Barrett has done the same or not. 

When Barrett and Hossler were dating, they were the “It couple” amongst the TikTokers. Barrett has talked about her relationship with Hossler a couple of times, and she has nothing but the best to talk about it.

Before their breakup, Barrett talked about her relationship with Seventeen, where she raved about how much she adored Hossler. She expressed her belief that she was incapable of loving someone since she had never been in love. 

Everything was different with Hossler. “I get this weird feeling with Jaden that I’ve never had with any human being, not even my mom, where it’s like I love him with my whole heart. I would do anything to make it work. He has shown me so much. Honestly, I owe it to him, because I would be in a really dark place now without him,” she admitted.

Unfortunately, five months later, in May 2022, the duo confirmed their break up via a joint statement on Instagram. 

“Last month we broke up to take time to focus on our own careers & mental,” they wrote. “Please don’t send hate or make assumptions. We would like to heal privately and hope you all can respect that. We love you all so much.”

Barrett sat down with Zach Sang on June 30, 2023, and discussed her track ‘Lie,’ her upcoming EP, Hell Is A Teenage Girl, and her previous hit, ‘American Jesus,’ among other things.

She reminisced about her breakup with Hossler while talking about their dating history. She stated how much he meant to her and how much she adored him.

She claimed that their relationship was intense and she was deeply in love with Hossler. She stated that she had never felt the same way about anybody else while dating Hossler. As a result, she went so far as to express her desire to spend the rest of her life with her ex-boyfriend.

Barrett then discussed their breakup. She didn’t go into specifics, but she did say how she did things that irritated Hossler while he did the same. These factors eventually prompted the pair to split up.

Barrett, on the other hand, mainly remembers the wonderful moments when she and Hossler were dating. She went on to remark that their connection was exceptional because they were there for one other when they had no one else. 

She also alluded to Hossler proposing to her. Unfortunately, their relationship did not continue, and since then, the duo have parted ways.
