## Summary

Julia Stiles and her “Dancing With the Stars” partner Ezra Sosa have marked their time on the show with matching tattoos, unveiled two days after they were eliminated from Season 35. The tattoos celebrate their partnership and shared dance performances, giving them a lasting memento despite missing out on the Mirrorball trophy.

They each got eight stars, one for every time they danced together. Sosa also tattooed a chair, recalling the prop Stiles used in “Save the Last Dance” and in their October routine; Stiles got “diva check”, Sosa’s daily way of asking how she was doing. After their exit, Stiles told Sosa they had “won in so many ways”. He has also said he hopes to compete with a same-sex partner next season.
