Tineke “Tini” Younger is honoring her late daughter, Arya, with a special tattoo.
Just over a month after the TikTok chef, 24, announced that one of the twin girls she was pregnant with died following a placental abruption at birth, she paid tribute to her baby girl with a new tattoo.
In a short video shared to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, Jan. 6, Younger debuted the ink on her upper arm, which features a baby footprint next to a sweet flower and Arya’s name written in cursive.
On Nov. 26, the content creator shared that she and her husband, Antoine Wright Jr., lost one of their twin babies in an emotional post, just one day before Thanksgiving.

“This isn’t the post I ever thought I would share once the twins came, unfortunately earlier this week we lost our sweet girl Arya (Baby A)," Younger, 24, began in a Facebook post. "We made it to almost 36 weeks we were so close to being done and getting the girls to term but I had a placenta abruption and we lost our sweet girl. Her twin sister is doing really good and breathing on her own.”
Younger also shared a few black-and-white photos, including one of her and her husband holding their baby girl in the hospital and another of Arya wearing a onesie with her name printed on the front.
“They both are so beautiful and Arya will always be celebrated, her sister will know she is a twin and has a beautiful twin sister,” she continued in the caption. “I will be taking a break, not sure for how long but I promise I will be back. I love you guys.❤️”

Weeks later, Younger shared a candid update on how she and L (baby b) have been doing since Arya’s death.
"Just wanted to hop on socials real quick and just let everyone know L (baby b) is doing good, we love her so much," Younger wrote on Instagram on Jan. 2 alongside various photos of her and her newborn. “We remind her everyday about Arya and Arya definitely plays with her sister in her dreams, L loves to smile in her sleep.❤️👼🏽.”
“I’m not sure when I will be back, I’m still emotionally and physically trying to heal, I’ve had some complications during my postpartum which I’m still trying to recover from,” she added. “Thank you to everyone who sends love.🫶🏼.”
