What happens when a major pop culture actress, a Star Wars classic line, and a meaningful personal moment collide? The result: Millie Bobby Brown revealed she’s seriously thinking about getting a tattoo of the legendary exchange from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back — the moment when Han Solo tells Princess Leia “I love you,” and she responds “I know.” The actress says the line is “so cute,” and that she and husband Jake Bongiovi even play-quote it to each other.

Why This Tattoo Idea Resonates
Brown already wears her fandom openly — with a growing tattoo collection that includes the number 11 (a nod to her TV character), butterflies, a rose, and her husband’s initials. So the fact that she’s considering immortalizing a Star Wars line makes perfect sense: it blends personal meaning, pop-culture fandom, and relationship connection.
She explained:
“Star Wars. ‘I love you.’ ‘I know.’ … I just love that. I love that line. It’s so cute.”
In the same interview she recalled quoting it with her husband:
“The other day, I said it to Jake … He was like, ‘I love you.’ And I was like, ‘I know.’ … He was like ‘What are you, Han Solo?’ And I was like, ‘Yeah.’” E! Online
So for her, this tattoo is more than ink — it’s a playful shared moment with someone she loves, wrapped in Star Wars nostalgia.
The Star Wars Connection
That one-line exchange (“I love you.” “I know.”) happens in The Empire Strikes Back, a moment that has become iconic across the entire Star Wars fandom. It stands out because Han’s declaration and Leia’s cool-but-confident response encapsulate their characters’ dynamic: heartfelt but not sappy, romantic but still roguish. Special enough to tattoo? Absolutely.
For Star Wars fans who also collect tattoos, this might feel like the perfect blend of fandom and art. Brown’s idea highlights how Star Wars lines transcend the screen and become part of people’s lives.
What It Means for Her Tattoo Journey
If Brown goes ahead, here are a few interesting take-aways:
- It adds to her collection of meaningful ink with personal significance (relationship, character homage, fandom).
- For Star Wars fans it creates a cool crossover moment between “celebrity pop culture” and “star-wars geek culture.”
- It shows that even major stars feel the pull of classic lines and want to mark them permanently.
Of course, we don’t know where she’d place the tattoo or how it would be styled. Will it be simple script? Will it reference Han and Leia visually? Time will tell.
Final Thoughts
Millie Bobby Brown’s decision to potentially ink up the “I love you / I know” quote is a sweet mix of love, fandom, and nostalgia. It’s a reminder that Star Wars isn’t just movies and merch—it’s moments that people carry with them. If you’re a Star Wars fan, a tattoo enthusiast, or just someone who loves a good pop-culture moment, this story hits all the right nostalgia pins.
