2024: Becky Holt, Britain's most tattooed woman, appeared on This Morning earlier this week to show off her extensive range of tattoos.

It all started with a youthful folly, the kind of hasty decision that many teenagers make and later regret.

Now, 21 years and £40,000 later, Becky Holt has spent hundreds of hours under the needle and has earned herself the nickname ‘Britain’s most tattooed woman’.

The mother-of-one, who has pursued careers as an alternative model and OnlyFans creator, now 36, has tattooed almost every inch of her body, including her armpits and even her vagina.

Becky, who made headlines this week for an awkward encounter with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on This Morning, began her journey into the world of tattoos when she was 15. horrifying her parents when she tattooed her boyfriend’s name on her crotch, after lying about her age at the local body art salon.

She told FEMAIL: “I was pretty wild back then, I had a lot of personal problems. This was when I started my modelling career and got into alternative modelling when I got tattoos.”

Becky, who has a three-year-old daughter, Aurora, said she became interested in tattoos because of the models she saw in Bizarre magazine and had been into body modification “from a very young age”.

The photographs she has shared of herself when she was younger show the extent of her dramatic transformation.

At 20, Becky had long, dark hair, with only a couple of tattoos visible on her arm.

This is a huge difference from her current look, where she is completely covered in tattoos from head to toe and has long blonde locks.

Until she was 22, all of her tattoos were hidden, but after a while, Becky, who has 156,000 followers on Instagram, decided to be more daring with her body art.

Becky said The daily star Previously, on her first experience with a tattoo: ‘Mom saw the tattoo when I was shopping for clothes downstairs and I was wearing my underwear.

“What the hell is that?” she screamed, before telling my disappointed father, who paid to have it covered with flowers to hide the name.

‘I also got a bird tattooed on my stomach around the same time. These designs were just for me and made me feel empowered. I had turned my old ‘tramp stamp’ into a piece of art.’

His first major tattoo was an image of Ganesh on his thigh, but he still managed to keep it covered.

At age 20, she began getting new tattoos every few months, starting on her arm, then her shoulders, and then her lower back.

Many of the tattoos have meaning, such as his favorite movie Labyrinth on his leg, a rose for his grandmother on his side, and tattoos for his parents, sister, and daughter.

She paid for them through modeling or money she received for her birthday or Christmas, and opened her own tattoo parlor between 2014 and 2018.

She now says she feels bad when she sees photos of herself with bare skin from the past.

The “hardest” decision she made was getting a tattoo on her forehead, especially when an ex-boyfriend told her it would be a deal breaker.

But when the relationship ended, Becky was quick to write her favorite David Bowie lyric below her hairline: “We can be heroes.”

“The most painful place was my armpit. They operated on all my armpits, my entire crotch, my entire intimate area. It was horrible, but bearable,” she previously said.

2017: Becky began adding more and more tattoos to her body, although there was still some space on her torso.

Becky said she initially “wasn’t going to” get tattoos on her hands, neck or face, but ended up “getting addicted” and adding even more.

Over time, she ran out of space in visible places like her arms and legs, having to tattoo her intimate areas and her face.

“I always wanted them to be covered with clothes, because they were for me, not for anyone else,” Becky explained.

“Once I ran out of space I got so addicted that I thought, ‘You know what? Let’s give it a try.'”

Although she receives malicious comments from trolls about her appearance, the decision seems to have paid off, as the tattoos have allowed her to develop a successful career.

Becky’s dream has come true: appearing on countless magazine covers and being the face of countless magazines.

Even now, her journey in the tattoo world continues as she updates her old tattoos with new ones.

And just last week, Becky took to Instagram to announce that she’d gotten some work done on the inside of her butt — a new take on an old tattoo.

In an interview with GB News, she said: “My family and friends love my tattoos, they are very proud of me and think they are amazing. I get a lot of criticism online. My followers think they are unrealistic, but I am annoyed by them.”

‘I always wanted to be covered in tattoos, it was always a dream of mine to be completely covered in them, and once I started, I didn’t stop!’

Becky has lost count of the number of tattoos she has, but surprisingly, her partner Ben doesn’t have a trace of ink on his body.

Although she still has a passion for tattoos, Becky decided to leave the adult industry this May to pursue a project that interests her greatly: working with adults with learning difficulties.
