Did Sarah Abad have her tattoo of 'Jay' removed?

By Jansen Ramos

We can't deny that former child star Sarah Abad looks badass in her tattoos but little did we know, she also seems to have come to a point where she felt a serious tattoo regret.

In her Instagram Stories on Wednesday, February 24, she posted videos from her visit to a plastic surgery and dermatology clinic.

There, Sarah underwent Jawtox treatment for face contouring and Revlite treatment to get rid of her acne scars and tattoo.

In her succeeding Story, she appeared to have taken the Revlite treatment to have her tattoo of "Jay" removed at her lower right back.

It was in May 2020 when Sarah confirmed her separation from her husband, Kamikazee frontman Jay Contreras. However, they remain friends and continue to co-parent their kids Kidlat and Isla.

Their marriage was admired by many that's why many were shocked after they announced their split, causing grief among their fans.

In her previous Instagram Stories where she initiated a Q & A, Sarah openly answered her followers' questions about her personal life, including her broken marriage with Jay, parenting, and love life.

One follower asked, "May mga naging regrets ka ba sa mga decisions mo in life?" to which Sarah replied, "Madami! Hahaha. But I learn from my mistakes and it made me who I am today. So next time 'di ko na uulitin."

The next question she answered is about how she is moving on from her split with Jay.

"How to learn how to love yourself pagkatapos ng "huling sayaw," one follower asked, referencing Kamikazee's hit farewell song "Huling Sayaw."

Sarah answered, "After everything that happened this year, I focused on people and things that make me happy. Respect yourself and know your worth."

When asked about her current relationship with Jay, Sarah affirmed that they are friends, saying he "has a special place in my heart."

She further explained, "Hindi na siguro mawawala 'yun kahit ano pang mangyari. I've known him since I was 16, hindi basta-basta maalis 'yun."

Sarah also opened about how hard it is to co-parent their kids amid their situation.

She shared, "You have to set aside the hate and anger na nararamdaman and stay committed to this new relationship that you have. We have our good days and bad days but, 'yun nga, if you share the same priorities and goals for the family, mas nagiging madali to get along with the other person."

Since Sarah and Jay have parted ways, she was inevitably asked about finding a new romance to which she casually denied.

She said, "Wala! Hindi na kasya sa puso ko. Wala pang space. Punong puno po ang puso ko ngayon: family, friends, and my dogs."

In case you didn't know, Sarah was a child actress who appeared in several movies in the '90s. Some of her contemporaries include Antoinette Taus and Tom Taus.

Sarah is mostly remembered in the 1993 romantic drama film Kung Mawawala Ka Pa, where she played the leukemia-stricken daughter of Christopher de Leon and Dawn Zulueta.
