RadarOnline.com has exclusively obtained the first photos of the former reality TV star's new body art, including pictures of the work in progress.

Jon says he picked a Korean dragon because it’s a symbol of rebirth and the circle of life.
“The dragon is all encompassing. It has all parts of the zodiac,” Jon tells RadarOnline.com.

The tattoo was designed at Never Say Die Tattoo parlor in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Jon’s first session was three weeks ago for six hours, the second took place a week ago and it was eight hours long.
The proud papa says he showed his eight children the tattoo, and "they love it and think it’s cool!'

Jon also says he is now working with a life coach, Sylvia Lafair, to change his life.
“I have just completed Section Two of my Total Leadership Connection program,” Jon told RadarOnline.com. (No, we don't know what that means either and we're not sure what he's leading or connecting to!)
Rubin says, “He has been actively exploring ways to better his life, become a better father, boyfriend, ex-husband, friend, business partner, everything. “

Sounds like you all went to the "Lisa K. mean girls" school for the nasty. Apparently they got a few eaters together that pretend they are superior to others and call themselves Divas?. What a joke

Without their foul mouths and keyboards they are all just jokes. Big FAT ignorant jokes.

I'm willing to make a safe bet though that you are one of the RWA diva's. This is the kind of stuff they do. They love to rile up people and the site is full of foul mouth trolls.
