Amanda Holden unveils new tattoo to fans – but her husband Chris Hughes hates it

Amanda Holden reveals her first ever tattoo

Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden has unveiled her brand new tattoo – but in a major blow, her husband Chris Hughes hates it.

Amanda was chatting about tattoos with her co-star Jason King, who is currently filling in for Jamie Theakston as he undergoes cancer treatment. During the segment, Amanda confirmed that while in Los Angeles with her daughter Holly, she got a tattoo on impulse.

Amanda explained: “As you know, I was in Los Angeles with my daughter Holly las week for half term, for Fright Night at Universal and Halloween in general. And to see my best friend Jane, who’s lived out there for 20 years. I also caught up with other friends that now live out there.

“I was having a cup of tea with my friend Sarah, and she was squashing a tea bag in her cup when I noticed something about her. I noticed something about her person that I was so shocked at but thrilled for her because this is something she’d always wanted to do. And I was like ‘Oh my gosh Sarah, I am going to do that,’ and she says, ‘you must do that.’”

Continuing to tease listeners with her story, Amanda confirmed that the “something” she had done was get a tattoo – her first ever. She said: “In the corner was the person we needed to see. We went over to this person, and he could fit us in, and we both did exactly the same thing. We both had a tattoo.”

Amanda said she was always “wholeheartedly against” permanent ink, and her husband didn’t like what she came home with.

Although Chris didn’t even notice the ink at first, he later had “three reactions” to cycle through. Amanda revealed: “In the end, we told Chris, and he had all three reactions I said he would do. First, he would say it looks fake. Second, he said, ‘It looks naff’.

“And third, he said, ‘Oh, what’s going to happen next? Where else are you going to get one? What else are you going to do? And now the children are going to want one!’ Is what he said.”

Amanda confirmed she already has her next tat planned, explaining: “It's two little hearts next to each other to symbolise my two children. But I'm going to do another little one at the bottom.” Jason quipped: “She’s going to have a sleeve soon, she’ll be like Beckham.”
