Jayson Tatum has been one of the biggest names in Boston over the last few years. However, despite his hyper public life, the Boston Celtics star has kept his romantic relationship with English pop singer Ella Mai away from the media.

Despite the extra privacy, fans never cease to show their keen interest in their romantic relationship. After Ella Mai made a social media post on the release of her EP "3," new information started to circulate on social media. It has been revealed that Jayson Tatum and Ella Mai have matching tattoos.

Tatum and Ella Mai both have the number "3" inked behind their left ears. Although Mai and Tatum have had matching tattoos for quite some time, it only came to light after she posted a picture explicitly showing her behind-the-ear tattoo.
