Team Spice member, Dancing Rebel got a new tattoo to pay homage to her mother and father who died from cancer recently.

Earlier this month, Dancing Rebel announced the passing of the father, one month after losing her mother to cancer.

“Rest In Peace Daddy,” Rebel wrote on Instagram.

In a follow-up post the popular dancer, real name Christina Nelson revealed that her father also died from cancer. “U fought a long hard battle daddy you weren’t perfect but I loved you, you grew a fighter idk what God is working out for me but I am numb my heart is weary! I can’t even cry,” she captioned a photo.

“We almost lost you from 05 when you were shot and battled through that and sadly developed cancer even when you did nothing could change how you saw life! I wish our last conversation was an apology I wanted to heal but it wasn’t. I will miss you Rest In Peace daddy!,” Dancing Rebel continued.

Dancing Rebel uploaded a photo of her new tattoo via Instagram Story on Thursday and wrote “Fly high mom & dad”. Her tattoo bears “9.11.20” symbolising the date of her father’s transition, and below that, “16.10.20”, which represents her mother’s transition. The artwork is completed with the cancer ribbon coloured in red, in honour of the long battle both parents fought with cancer.
