Paris Jackson celebrated her 18th birthday by honoring her late father Michael Jackson with a new tattoo.
The 18-year-old shared her latest body ink on Instagram Tuesday, posting a photo of her wrist that featured the words "Queen of My Heart" in Michael's handwriting.
"To everyone else he was the King of Pop. To me, well, he was the king of my heart," Jackson captioned her black and white picture.
The King of Pop's middle child got her new ink at Timeless Tattoo 738 in Los Angeles by artist Justin Lewis, accompanied by cousin Austin Brown.
"Paris Michael Jackson got her tattoo today, letters from her father, so sweet," Lewis wrote on his Instagram along with a photo of the star showing off her tattoo.

This June will mark the seventh anniversary since Michael's death. The fan-beloved singer died of a propofol overdose at age 50.
Three years after her father's death, Jackson, then 14, tweeted she wanted to get a tattoo in her father's memory. "I kinda want to get August XXIX tatted on my back." Michael was born on Aug. 29, 1958.
