I got a face tattoos after a famous film character that I hugely regret – I’m judged on school run and at job interviews
WHEN Lily Wright got face tattoos honouring her favourite film character aged 20, she didn’t foresee how it would impact her on the school run years later.
The 28-year-old gets “judged” by other mums while dropping her four-year-old daughter off at the school gates due to a six-letter word tattooed on her cheek.
Lily has spent years living with three face tattoos inspired by Margot Robbie's famous Suicide Squad character.
As an ode to the actress’ on-screen portrayal of Harley Quinn, Lily had the same three sketches permanently etched on her face as the fictional heroine.
But now, she “massively regrets” the inks and is getting them removed.
The three tattoos are a cross above her eyebrow, as well as a heart and the word “ROTTEN” inked on her cheek.

Melbourne-based Lily has admitted her “massive regret” for the film-inspired tattoos.
She got them done while involved in “crime and drugs” as an impressionable 20-year-old.
The reformed mum finds that people judge her for the inks, particularly when she is doing the school run or attending job interviews.
“I got in some criminal trouble in 2016 and I decided to get my face tattooed,” Lily told
“I feel like I have been judged a lot for them.
“I feel like the tattoos hold me back.”
Lily, who is now on the straight and narrow after going to rehab, hopes getting the tattoos removed will help her find a job.
Lily will begin her laser treatment with Removery at the end of August.
