Influencer Tineke “Tini” Younger is paying tribute to her late daughter, Arya, in a heartfelt way.
On Tuesday, January 5, Younger, 24, revealed a new tattoo via her Instagram Story. The artwork on her arm features Arya’s footprint surrounded by flowers, with her name elegantly inscribed in cursive.
This touching tribute comes months after Younger shared the heartbreaking news of Arya’s passing. Referred to affectionately as Baby A, Arya died due to a serious pregnancy complication. Accompanying the announcement, Younger posted a poignant black-and-white photo with her husband, Antoine Wright Jr.
“This isn’t the post I ever imagined sharing once the twins arrived. Unfortunately, earlier this week, we lost our precious Arya (Baby A),” she expressed on Instagram and Facebook in November. “We made it nearly 36 weeks, so close to full term, but a placenta abruption claimed our dear girl.”

At that time, she added, “Her twin sister is thriving and breathing independently. Both are so beautiful, and Arya will always be celebrated. Her sister will know she has a lovely twin. I’ll be taking a break, uncertain of its length, but I promise to return. Love you all.”
A placenta abruption is an “uncommon yet serious” pregnancy complication where the placenta partly or completely separates from the “inner wall of the uterus before delivery,” according to the Mayo Clinic. This can “decrease or block” the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the fetus while causing “heavy bleeding in the mother.”
After Younger opened up about the death of Arya, Teen Mom’s Mackenzie Douthit shared her condolences while reflecting on her own experience.
“My heart is completely shattered for you! I wish so badly doctors would stop forcing twin moms to try and carry so long,” Douthit, 31, wrote in the comments section, before discussing the complications she faced during the birth of her and Khesanio Hall’s twin daughters, Ja’Kharie and Ja’Meikah, in June 2025.
She continued, “Both of my placentas abrupted, I knew they did, and my doctor refused to listen and take the babies. I had to go to another hospital and let doctors I never met take the twins at 31 weeks. No one ever talks about this. You are so so deep in my prayers.”
Months later, Younger shared an update while sharing photos of her living daughter, Baby B.
“Just wanted to hop on socials real quick and just let everyone know L (baby b) is doing good, we love her so much. We remind her everyday about Arya and Arya definitely plays with her sister in her dreams, L loves to smile in her sleep,” Younger wrote via Instagram on Friday, January 2.
She continued, “I’m not sure when I will be back, I’m still emotionally and physically trying to heal, I’ve had some complications during my postpartum which I’m still trying to recover from. Thank you to everyone who sends love.”
