Lea Michele gets touching tattoo in honor of late boyfriend Cory Monteith
It's been almost three years since "Glee" star Cory Monteith died of a mixed drug toxicity of heroin and alcohol, but surely not a day goes by that Lea Michele -- who was dating Monteith at the time of his death -- doesn't think about her late love.
The actress took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a touching tattoo that she got in honor of Monteith.

The simple ink, which is just the number "5" in basic black text, is a nod to Monteith's football jersey number on "Glee." He played the school quarterback, Finn.
"For me Quarterback," Michele captioned the black and white photo.
And one more.. for my Quarterback.. #5 ❤️
