About Kat Von D

She may have appeared on TLC’s LA Ink to display her tattooing skills (and tumultuous personal life) However Kat Von D was thrown into the spotlight in a big way since since her romance with Sandra Bullock‘s ex-husband, Jesse James, made headlines, and we have a feeling she won’t be leaving anytime soon.

American tattoo artist, model, entrepreneur, and television personality Kat Von D has an estimated net worth of $20 million dollars, as of 2023.

Inking Up

Kat was, to put it mildly, a traveler. She was born in Mexico to a German father and a Spanish-Italian mother before relocating to California at the age of four. Kat created her first permanent work of art when she was just 14 years old and tattooed it on her body using a homemade tattooing device. The first was an antique English script “J” on her ankle in honor of a previous romantic relationship.

At age 16, Kat dropped out of school to begin working in a licensed tattoo parlor, where she perfected her trade.

After that, Kat met her future husband, fellow tattoo artist Oliver Peck, at a different store called True Tattoo.

Around that time, Kat’s work started to catch the attention of tattoo enthusiasts as well as TLC executives, who in 2005 put her in the reality series Miami Ink. At the time, Kat was the only female employee of the shop, which also employed well-known tattoo artists Chris Garver and Darren Brass.

Moving On After Divorce

However, Kat had to deal with two significant breakups in 2007. Due to her divorce from Peck and verbal fights with cast members, Kat left Miami Ink and established her own business, High Voltage, in Los Angeles. But TLC followed Kat everywhere she went and awarded the tattoo queen her own program, LA Ink, which followed the process of starting her own business.

But set aside the fights between Kat and her former castmates; the real drama would come when the cameras in Los Angeles began to roll. Arguments with her staff, employees quitting or being dismissed, and high-profile friendships like Roy Orbison’s son Alex and Mötley Crüe’s Nikki Sixx all contributed to the chaotic environment.

Only a few months after the Oscar winner and her Monster Garage husband had broken up, Kat disclosed in the summer of 2010 that she was dating Sandra Bullock’s ex, Jesse James. They announced that they were engaged in January 2011. She is well known for being a badass and, like her choice of artwork, she isn’t scared to upend the status quo.

“I get a lot of letters from jail. Like, ‘Hey, I have tattoos like you. We have a lot in common. Except I kill people.’ It’s awesome, I love it.”
