According to HGTV, one of the many tattoos Bromstad has is the word “Family.” The tattoo rests above his stomach and is a rainbow of colors. The word represents the LGBTQ community. Bromstad got it in 2020 because he considers the community his family. 

He also sports a monarch butterfly

If someone were to see Bromstad shirtless, they might notice a monarch butterfly on top of his left shoulder. Fans do not know if there is a special significance for the tattoo or not. It could be that Bromstad likes the species of butterflies.
