Nancy Mace Shows Off Sailor Jerry-Style Tattoos in Bikini on 'Get Maced' YouTube Series

Rep. Nancy Mace launched a new YouTube commentary show titled Get Maced and used her promotional intro to debut the extensive tattoos she has on both of her arms.

The 48-year-old outgoing South Carolina Republican featured an intro clip that mixed footage of her walking the halls of Congress with a poolside selfie in a black bikini, fully displaying her heavily inked arms. The artwork includes imagery of a giant bird, a flower, a sun and the opening line from Virginia Woolf’s novel Mrs. Dalloway.

Mace previously disclosed that she received nine tattoos in rapid succession during a tumultuous period marked by the end of her engagement and a massive staff exodus.

She described the physical pain of the process as a cathartic way to cope and reclaim her identity.

The public debut of her tattoos coincides with her impending departure from politics. After placing fifth in the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary and honoring her self-imposed three-term limit, Mace is preparing to transition to the private sector and focus on entrepreneurial projects when her congressional term concludes.

She has faced widespread accusations of Islamophobia after posting on X that "every single Muslim holding public office in America is a Trojan horse, and a threat to both national security and our republic."

Mace has been one of the most outspoken congressional advocates for releasing unredacted files related to convicted child predator Jeffrey Epstein, a campaign she states ultimately cost her the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial nomination.

As a survivor of sexual assault, Mace has treated the investigation as a personal and moral crusade, partnering across the aisle with Democrats like California Rep. Ro Khanna to push for total transparency.

After reviewing unredacted correspondence in a secure Department of Justice reading room, Mace stated that the public would be "shocked" by the names the DOJ is protecting. She noted the files contain references to prominent figures from "both sides of the aisle," including rich individuals, media personalities, former presidents and prime ministers.

The outgoing South Carolina Republican has been married and divorced twice and, in 2023, ended an engagement.

Mace married her first husband, a fellow Citadel graduate and future Air Force JAG officer, the same year she graduated.

The couple divorced three years later and did not have children.

Her second marriage was to South Carolina businessman and software engineer Curtis Jackson.

They were married for 15 years and share two teenage children, Miles and Ellison, divorcing in 2019.

Mace became engaged to Charleston software entrepreneur Patrick Bryant in May 2022 after he surprised her with a proposal while she was door-knocking for her reelection campaign. The couple broke off the engagement in late 2023. The split has since resulted in highly publicized legal disputes and defamation lawsuits between the two.
