Ant McPartlin reveals very meaningful new tattoo

The presenter has a permanent reminder

If you’re going to get something permanent etched onto your skin, it really should be something truly meaningful. Which is what Ant McPartlin’s done.

The TV star has unveiled a new tattoo on his inside wrist, and fans have pointed out that it’s the Alcoholics Anonymous symbol.

The equilateral triangle is associated with the AA programme and is said to represent the three parts, unity, recovery and service, you need to use to treat the three part disease of alcoholism: physical, mental and spiritual.

The circle is thought to represent wholeness.

It follows the presenter’s recent visit to rehab, where he spent a month having intensive treatment for addictions.

Ant, 42, was arrested for drink driving in March. In April he was handed an £86,000 fine, and banned from driving for 20 months.

He confirmed at the time that he was “truly sorry”, adding: “I’m addressing what I now recognise as problems with alcohol and emotional issues.”

It’s clear the former I’m A Celebrity presenter is finally in a good place again.

He was seen out in London this weekend with his new girlfriend, Anne-Marie Corbett, on a double date with his best friend, Declan Donnelly and pregnant wife, Ali Astall.
