Ant McPartlin has revealed his new tattoo as he gets ready for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! to launch at the weekend.
Ant is back Down Under with pal and co-presenter Declan Donnelly as the hit show heads back to the jungle for the first time in two years due to Covid-19 travel restrictions.

Ahead of its return, ITV said: "Returning to its home in Australia after a two-year break, our celebrities will leave their plush pads and luxuries far behind as they spend up to three weeks taking on the Australian jungle with a whole host of surprises created for them."
In the past two years, it had been filmed in the slightly more chilly Gwrych Castle in Wales.
In a new image ahead of I’m A Celeb landing back on our screens, Ant can be seen standing next to Dec on a bridge wearing a short-sleeved shirt with his new tattoo visible on his lower right arm.

The new ink is a tribute to the late Beatles’ star John Lennon and is a copy of the black and white mosaic, called Strawberry Fields, that is part of the original memorial to Lennon in New York’s Central Park.
In the middle of the design is the word Imagine - the title of one of Lennon’s hit songs.
I’m A Celeb is set to return on Sunday 6 November - and it’s caused a stir before it’s even started after it was revealed that former health secretary Matt Hancock had been signed up to appear.
Hancock will be one of the contestants to enter as a bombshell, arriving later on in the ITV show.
He will be joining other confirmed stars including Boy George, former England footballer Jill Scott, ex-England rugby union player Mike Tindall, radio DJ Chris Moyles and Love Island star Olivia Attwood.

Hancock’s addition to the line up did not go down well in Westminster - shortly after the news was announced he was suspended with immediate effect.
Chief Whip Simon Hart MP said: “Following a conversation with Matt Hancock, I have considered the situation and believe this is a matter serious enough to warrant suspension of the whip with immediate effect.”
While Andy Drummond, deputy chairman of the West Suffolk Conservative Association, said he was looking forward to seeing Hancock ‘eating a kangaroo's penis’. Fair enough, mate.
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here Now! starts on ITV at 9pm on 6 November.
