“I was in LA over lockdown actually in 2020 and I did all the regular stuff like making banana bread, tie-dyeing, all of that kind of stuff.”
She went on to explain how she ended up ordering a tattoo gun off of the internet.

“And I looked at the username and it was called, ‘PrisonTattoo.com,'” she told talk show host Jimmy Kimmel on his self-titled show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!
She went on: “I looked at his videos and I was like ‘Wow, there’s an inmate making videos… in prison, this is a fab idea!”
“And then I did it and I followed his instructions.”
The star went on to reveal she ended up tattooing a sphynx cat on her ankle before showing the talk show host.
Simone’s admission comes after she told how she and her Brdgerton co-star Jonathan Bailey would exchange “gifts” on the set of the programme daily during filming.
She explained how when she first joined the show, he gave her a bouquet of flowers in her trailer before detailing how she would then reciprocate and leave him gifts as well.
She told Glamour UK: “I would always leave him his favourite snacks in his trailer.
“We had a very unspoken rhythm going on in that sense, leaving gifts in each other’s trailers.”
