The special meaning behind Drew Barrymore's tattoo

In the May 6 episode of the talk show, Drew shared that not only does she love tattoos but getting this specific tattoo has been a dream of hers. The actor got inked on TV on her forearm courtesy of Ryan Ashley of the Ink Master fame. Showing off her new tattoo, that reads, "home is where we are," the actor explained that the phrase holds a very special meaning for her and her daughters. She said that she has been telling this phrase to her two daughters Frankie and Olive and to herself for the last 5 years. She posted the clip of her tattoo on her Instagram in which she was heard saying, "Wherever life takes you, if you're lucky enough to be alongside people you love, then to me, that became the definition of home" and said that this is the most important life lesson that she has learnt.

Further explaining the meaning of her new tattoo, a choked-up Drew shared that she wants people to feel that no matter where they are in the world if they have someone loving them, nothing is more fulfilling than that while holding out her arm to show the tattoo. The actor was in tears when she spoke about her two daughters. She said that she never knew what home was until she had her daughters. She concluded the video by saying, "When I was in rental apartments, or not knowing where life was going, or so upset that the plans I tried to solidify for my kids had changed, it really led to the discovery of what home really means for me and that is if we are together, wherever we are, home is where we are."
