Robin Williams Daughter, Zelda, Gets Tattoo That Is Touching Tribute To Her Dad
Zelda Williams, daughter of the late Robin Williams, recently shared her new permanent tribute to her dad on Instagram.
Williams tribute to her dad is a hummingbird tattoo with her dad’s birth date, 7.21.51, tattooed on the inside of her wrist. Famed Hollywood tattoo artist Dr. Woo is responsible for William’s new artwork Yahoo reports.
“For poppo. Thank you to the incomparable @dr_woo_ssc for so beautifully bringing my reminders to life. I’ll always put my hand out to shake with a smile. As for this Instagram, I don’t know in what capacity I’ll continue using it in the future, but I’m leaving it up regardless so that fake accounts hoping to use my name or misuse my family’s photos will get no traction. To be clear, this is MY ONLY account. Publicly, I have Twitter, and this. If other people post quotes and photos claiming to be me or my family, please, do not send them personal information or click links, even for charity. They could be utilizing sympathy to scam you. For the record, no one has ever or will ever speak for me but me. Thank you,” Williams posted under the photo of her tribute to her dad.
Robin Williams died at the age of 63 back in August. He took his own life at his home in San Francisco.
Zelda had kept pretty quite about her dad’s death, deciding to grieve outside the spotlight. In early October, she tweeted in support of World Mental Health Day.
“Mental illness is often misunderstood & misrepresented, but that’s starting to change. Let’s end the stigma. No matter what the misinformed say, you can’t simply choose to make a mental illness go away. It is NOT cowardly to suffer or seek help. Lastly, my dad openly fought depression his whole life, both in general and his own. No matter what anyone says, it is a FIGHT. Fight on,” she tweeted.
During a reception held for family and friends, as a memorial to Robin, wrist bands with hummingbirds on them were handed out. The wrist bands also had the phrase ‘Love the Stillness of Life’ on them, E! Online reported.
Zelda’s tribute to her dad is not the only one that has been done recently. Robin Williams‘ longtime friend Billy Crystal also paid tribute to him at the 2014 Emmy Awards.
Another tribute to Williams may be coming soon. Assembly members will decide whether they will rename the Waldo Tunnel and its rainbow arches after Robin Williams in December.
