Presley Gerber turned heads when he debuted his face tattoo in 2020. Presley - the son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Geber - showed off his ink via social media in 2020, which read: "Misunderstood." The tattoo was placed underneath his left eye, and quickly received backlash from social media users "If I thought this was going to ruin my face or I didn't want this, I wouldn't have done it. I think that's a pretty obvious thing," Presley said during an Instagram Live at the time, addressing the online criticism. "I just wanted to come on here and be, like, if anyone has s*** to say to me about this or anything else and my family or how I grew up or anything, I will give you my address. I promise, and you can come say it to my face." Crawford and Rande, meanwhile, were reportedly not thrilled with their son's decision to ink his face. (The Hollywood couple - who tied the knot in 1998 - also share daughter Kaia Gerber, whom Presley has dedicated another tattoo for on his left tricep: "Kaia XXIII.") A source exclusively told Us Weekly in 2020 that Crawford and Rande were "very worried" about Presley, while a separate insider shared that the pair are "beside themselves." Later that year, Presley showed off another face tattoo - this time a large star with what looked like "LA" written in the center. He later revealed that the second face tattoo, which appeared to be the Los Angeles Dodgers logo, was a "filter."
