Choosing religion over butterflies, Drew Barrymore is reportedly having her tattoos removed to adhere to her husband’s Jewish religion, Star magazine reports.
While converting to Judaism for her husband, William Kopelman, 38-year-old Barrymore is having six tattoos removed so that she can be buried in a Jewish cemetery.
Apparently, her array of tattoos include a bouquet of flowers on her hip, a butterfly on her stomach, a moon crescent on her toe, two angles on her lower back, and a cross on her leg– all which are going to disappear after a painful surgery.
“Drew also wants to be a Santa Barbara mom, and tattoos clash with that wardrobe,” a source told Star. “She’s growing up and turning conservative.”
