Mark Wahlberg's son is catching up to him on the tattoos front.

Over the weekend, the Ted actor's wife Rhea Wahlberg shared a series of family photos, including one of their eldest son Michael, 20, with a tattoo sleeve on his arm.

The former rapper and Florida-born model have been married since 2002, and in addition to Michael, are also parents to Ella, 22, Brendan, 18, and Grace, 16.

Taking to Instagram, Rhea first shared a photo of her three youngest kids with their arms around each other, followed by snaps of the Wahlberg bunch throughout September.

They included Grace at another equestrian competition, Brendan celebrating his milestone 18th birthday, and Michael enjoying a day out on a boat, showcasing his tattoos on his arms as well as on his chest.

His dad Mark also has a slew of tattoos, among them a portrait of Bob Marley and Rhea's name on his ring finger.

"September," Rhea wrote in her caption alongside a green checkmark and string of other emojis, and fans were quick to take to the comments section under the post and gush over them.

"Love how down to earth your sweet family is," one wrote, as others followed suit with: "LOVE the birthday cake!" and: "Nice pics. Beautiful family! Happy birthday to Brendan! Cute pups," as well as: "So nice to have the kids all together! I can feel the love from here!!!"

Rhea and Mark are based in Las Vegas, having moved out of Los Angeles four years ago, though the latter remains working as an actor, most recently in 2025's The Family Plan 2. While Grace makes frequent appearances on her parents' social media, with them often sharing glimpses of her competitions, little is known about the pair's sons and whether Michael, who could be a junior in college, is currently in university.

Their eldest, Ella, however is a student at Clemson University in South Carolina. "She's just so happy there," Mark said in 2023 speaking with TODAY, adding: "She's really thriving so I understand. Obviously, it's more difficult for moms, because when you have a child, your own existence revolves around taking care and nurturing this child and helping them grow. But you're giving life and they go off and do their thing, and hopefully, they come back and spend time with you."

The Wahlberg-Durham family has been living in Las Vegas since 2022, and have gushed about the decision. Mark, opening up about leaving Los Angeles during another appearance on TODAY in 2023, noted: "You have Las Vegas, and people think automatically, 'Oh, the Strip.' But [in] Nevada, there are wonderful communities."

Though he admitted to missing California and its weather, he added that the kids "are thriving" in their new hometown, and further shared: "I live in a wonderful community that's really faith-based, great schools. There's much more to Las Vegas than the Strip."
