Earlier this week, the former ‘TOWIE’ cast member revealed in her new! magazine column that she’d had Jake’s name permanently etched on her skin, just two weeks after confirming that they were back together.
The Goodge has now been snapped showing off her new ink for the first time, conveniently wearing short sleeves as she talked on the phone, carrying her handbag by her waist, displaying the tattoo in all its glory.
It’s almost as if she knew there would be photographers there, right?

"Yes hello? I'd like to speak to someone about having a tattoo removed..."
Lauren has also reffered to Jake as her “soulmate” on her Instagram page, where she posted a special birthday message for him in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Her new tattoo choice is surprising, given that the first ever episode of ‘TOWIE’ sees The Goodge discussing having a tattoo on her hip removed… which says ‘Mark’.
Oh dear.

They were young, in love and engaged before they weren't. While Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder were dating, the actor famously tattooed the words "Winona Forever" to his right upper arm. Sadly the relationship did not last forever and when they broke up in 1993, Depp changed the tattoo to read "Wino Forever." (credit:Getty)

She thought their love would last forever, so Kat Von D got a tattoo of then-fiance Jesse James as a young boy under her arm. While the artwork will last a lifetime, their relationship ended in July 2011 (though their romance was rekindled a month later). (credit:Getty / TLC)

Tattooing a wedding band on your ring finger is a good idea in theory, but it makes it awfully hard when the marriage ends. When comedian Kathy Griffin divorced her husband of five years, Matt Moline, in 2005, she also removed her permanent wedding ring. We're not sure which hurt more. (credit:Getty)
