Britain's most tattooed woman sunbathes and fans notice there's area left to ink
Becky Holt is dedicated to being the 'most tattooed woman in Britain'. But while she sports plenty of ink across her body, there is one place she's neglected so far. Starting at just 15 years old, she now has tattoos from her head to her toes, but after she was spotted sunbathing on Instagram, fans have realised she lacks tatts in one area.
Posing in a chic red two-piece in Beach Cabo Roig in Spain with a scarf atop her head, she captioned her post: "Beach day with my loves," and people rushed to the comments to tell her that she looked " beautiful," referring to her as a "stunning woman".
Previously, Becky has opened up about getting her intimate areas tattooed, but during a Q&A on Instagram Live, she shared there's somewhere she won't bother getting tattooed.
And there were some fans who noticed there was a lack of tattoos on the soles of her feet. "Next, we want foot tattoos," one penned.
Speaking to her over 150,000 followers, someone asked her whether she had any plans to get the soles of her feet tattooed, as the tops of her toes are already adorned with designs.
They asked: "Will you ever tattoo under your feet?" Becky responded: "No, there's no point. I can't be a**** with the pain of it for it not to last".
There's a reason Becky isn't too keen on getting the soles of her feet tattooed. Not only is it a painful area to ink, but it's also not the most practical decision.
This is because tattoos on the soles of the feet fade more quickly than any tattoos on any other part of the body.
This is likely to be because it's trickier to penetrate the skin on areas that are harder or calloused, which feet can often be due to the amount of walking people do.
Tattoos on the soles of the feet can sometimes last less than a couple of years, which makes it seem pointless, which was Becky's reasoning.
The skin on the soles of the feet is subject to constant friction and pressure, as it is the point of contact with the ground whenever you walk, run, or stand.
This causes skin cells to regenerate more frequently, which can lead to faster fading of tattoos.
Not only that, but the constant rubbing against socks, shoes, and the ground has an exfoliating effect on the skin, which can cause the tattoo to wear off prematurely.
Additionally, this area is prone to more sweating and exposure to bacteria, increasing the risk of infection if not properly cared for.
It's important to follow aftercare instructions closely and try to minimise pressure on the area as much as possible during the healing period.

Inside notorious Scots gangster's glitzy night backstage at Oasis cosying up to Noel Gallagher & massive BBC star
GNAGSTER Robert Kelbie has been snapped cosying up to Oasis stars and A-listers backstage at the Britpop legends' huge reunion gigs in Cardiff this week. The playboy Scots fraudster. 41. wore a VIP pass and a wide grin in the brazen snap shared on Instagram. 7 Robert Kelbie brazenly shared pics of himself hobnobbing backstage with Noel Gallagher 7 The gangster with former Doctor Who star Matt Smith 7 Kelbie, who is living it up as a boxing promoter, with Oasis guitarist Gem Archer He brazenly shared pics of himself hobnobbing backstage with Noel Gallagher, Oasis guitarist Gem Archer, and former Doctor Who star Matt Smith. And in veiled dig at rivals - he posted video of himself at the gig on Instagram to the soundtrack of the Oasis hit Stay Young which includes the lyrics: 'Stay young and invincible, come what may we're unstoppable.' Kelbie, now living it up as a flashy boxing promoter, is no stranger to the high life and is a known enemy of caged cocaine kingpin Mark Richardson, 38. Richardson is currently behind bars, while his allies - including the feared Daniel Clan - are in a bloody turf war with Dubai-based Ross 'Miami' McGill and a group known as Tamo Junto. 7 Kelbie, now living it up as a flashy boxing promoter is a known enemy of caged cocaine kingpin Mark Richardson (pictured) Credit: SCOTTISH SUN 7 Dubai-based Ross 'Miami' McGill is waging war on Mark Richardson and his associates Sources say Kelbie is revelling in the carnage ripping through his rival's empire. A rival hit out: 'Kelbie makes out that he's some sort of socialite and pals with the Gallagher brothers and most of these people won't know his past. 'He's an enemy of Mark Richardson and will be loving all the violence that's been directed towards his empire in Edinburgh. 'Kelbie and his crew swig champagne in the VIP area and try to legitimise himself by being a boxing promoter but if some of these stars Googled who they were posing for pictures with then they might think twice about it.' McGill, an ex-Rangers ultras chief, is now living in the UAE but was left raging after fake cash was used in a £500,000 drugs deal. Hundreds gather for double funeral of slain Scots gangsters Eddie Lyons Jr & Ross Monaghan He ordered blade attacks, shootings and firebombings across the Central Belt sparking a seemingly unstoppable gang feud. Kelbie - who was once filmed being floored by a rival more than a decade younger in a bareknuckle building site scrap - has links to fugitive Irish kingpin and ex-fight promoter Daniel Kinahan. He fled his home at Ratho Station, Edinburgh, in 2016 after it was blasted by Gerard Docherty, 45 — who was caged for 10½ years in 2018 alongside Richardson and other members of a £200million supergang. His appearance back stage at the Oasis gig is not the first time Kelbie has been seen in the company of the rich and famous. He's close pals with Tyson Fury, and even gave the champ, 35, a tour of Scotland last year — stopping off in trendy Edinburgh bars and taking in the sights. He's also been seen posing backstage with Noel Gallagher on other occasions. 7 Robert Kelbie has previously been pictured with Tyson Fury 7 Kelbie has been pictured alongside footie legend Sir Alex Ferguson Kelbie's celeb selfie stash also includes shots with Sir Alex Ferguson, 82, Wayne Rooney, and boxing legend Mike Tyson. His latest social media spree shows him mingling backstage as Oasis kicked off their hotly-anticipated reunion tour — but not everyone's impressed by his A-list antics. The gangster's red carpet lifestyle comes as Scotland's gangland war explodes, with two men arrested in connection with firebombings and attempted murder. The busts bring the total arrests to 52 as cops ramp up their crackdown on the on the escalating gang feud across the central belt. In a feared revenge for the gang war focusing on the Daniel and Richardson empires, the execution of two members of the rival Lyons group of hoods was ordered in Spain. Eddie Lyons Jnr and Ross Monaghan were shot dead as they watched the Champions League final in Monaghan's Irish Bar in the resort of Fuengirola.

More than 500 friends, family and underworld figures gathered at Bishopbriggs Crematorium in north Glasgow to show respect to Monaghan and Lyons Jnr - son of Godfather Eddie, 67, and brother of Dubai-based mob boss Steven Lyons, 44.

Cierra Ortega exits ‘Love Island USA' amid backlash over posts containing a racial slur
Cierra Ortega left the 'Love Island USA' villa amid backlash from viewers who resurfaced old social media posts from the reality star that contained a racial slur. The show, an American spin-off of a U.K. offering, announced during Sunday's episode that Ortega is exiting 'due to a personal situation,' but did not elaborate. Her departure comes just one week before the hit reality show's finale is set to air on Peacock. (NBCUniversal is the parent company of Peacock and NBC News.) A spokesperson for the show declined to comment. Ortega is the second contestant to leave the show this season after facing controversy for past language. Yulissa Escobar abruptly exited last month after video clips surfaced online that appear to show her using a racist slur while on a podcast. Over the past week, Ortega, who is of Mexican and Puerto Rican heritage, lost hundreds of thousands of followers on Instagram, according to social media analytics website Social Blade, as discourse about the contestant's alleged use of an anti-Chinese slur gained viral traction. Screenshots that have been shared online across TikTok, X and Instagram's Threads suggest Ortega used the slur in at least two social media posts. One of the screenshots is from a 2024 Instagram story, a type of post that expires after 24 hours, in which Ortega used the word to describe why she was getting Botox to 'open up' her eyes. Ortega has not yet publicly weighed in on the backlash, as contestants do not have access to their phones while on the show. However, after Sunday's episode aired, Ortega's parents posted a statement on her Instagram story asking for 'compassion' and 'basic human decency.' (Contestants' social accounts are typically run by friends or family while they are secluded in the villa.) The show, which has seen a surge in new viewers this year, follows a group of singles over the course of six weeks as they race to couple up and form romantic connections, or risk getting dumped from the island. But the spike in popularity has also led to intensified harassment toward contestants online. 'We're not here to justify or ignore what's surfaced. We understand why people are upset, and we know accountability matters. But what's happening online right now has gone far beyond that,' the statement from Ortega's account read. 'The threats. The cruel messages. The attacks on her family, her friends, even her supporters, it's heartbreaking. It's uncalled for. And no one deserves that kind of hate, no matter what mistake they've made.' Ortega, who entered as a 'bombshell' (what the show calls newer contestants) early in the season, quickly became a fan favorite and one of the season's most highly followed contestants on social media. In recent weeks, however, many of her fans turned against her as they began criticizing her behavior on the show alongside her alleged use of the slur. Ortega and fellow contestant Nic Vansteenberghe were the first couple to 'close off,' or become exclusive, in the villa — a significant milestone on a show that encourages couples to explore multiple connections. Her departure left Vansteenberghe single until the next recoupling. As the screenshots of Ortega's past posts drew heated debate among viewers online, many called on Peacock to remove her from the show, especially since Escobar was also booted. Shortly after her exit, Escobar issued an apology statement acknowledging her use of a racial slur, saying she 'wasn't trying to be offensive or harmful, but I recognize now that intention doesn't excuse impact.' Ortega's parents said their daughter had not yet seen the online reactions, nor has she had the chance to process what happened or issue a response. 'But we know our daughter. We know her heart. And when she returns, we believe she'll face this with honesty, growth, and grace,' they wrote. 'While she'll always be our little girl, she's also a woman, one who will take responsibility in her own time and her own voice.' On Friday, Ortega's friends also appeared to publicly distance themselves from her resurfaced comments. Content creator MJ Hedderman, who had been running Ortega's Instagram account during her time on the show, wrote on her personal Instagram story that she has decided to 'take a step back from running her account,' and that she was asked by Ortega's family to refrain from speaking on her behalf. 'Hi guys, I see your comments concerning someone I love and care about,' Hedderman wrote. 'I want to be clear that I do not condone racism, bigotry or hate in any way shape or form, nor was I aware of the recent screenshots until they were posted.' Johnnie Olivia Garcia, a former contestant on a past season of 'Love Island USA,' similarly wrote on her Instagram story that she stopped publicly expressing support for her friend after she saw the posts being circulated. 'I loved supporting her during her time on the show, but once I came across that post, I felt it was necessary to take a step back,' Garcia wrote. 'I do not support or condone that kind of language never have, never will.' Former season seven contestant Belle-A Walker, who was dumped from the island when her villa partner Vansteenberghe recoupled with Ortega, released a statement to her Instagram story after Sunday's episode expressing appreciation for the producers' decision as a 'proud Asian American woman.' 'When I first saw what my fellow Islander said on their social media pages, I was incredibly heartbroken,' Walker wrote, without naming Ortega. 'But I wanted to wait until they left the villa and were able to address the situation, genuinely apologize, and commit to learning from the experience before deciding how our relationship would look moving forward.' Walker, who is half Filipina, said she doesn't condone bigotry or racism. However, she urged fans to 'think twice before leaving unkind comments to or about this person.' 'Asian hate is oftentimes overlooked and dismissed. But being a first-generation American, I have personally witnessed and experienced how real and hurtful comments like these are. It is my hope that this situation can help shed light on how big of an issue anti-Asian hate actually is.'
