At one point, she could be seen modeling short denim cut-offs with a cropped pink top that notably showed off a tramp stamp. The sparkly tattoo appeared to feature two butterflies.

Both looks serve as a stark contrast to how she presents herself today as the conservative CEO of her late husband's political youth organization, Turning Point USA.
