Big Brother’s Ryan gets Hughie’s name tattooed over his heart

By Will Stroude

Ever the fan of subtlety, recently-evicted Big Brother contestant Ryan Ruckledge recently got a tattoo in honour of his former housemate and lover, Hughie Maughan.

The pair got rather intimate during their time together on the show, and ended up get hot and heavy in bed after a night of drinking, offering us what is surely one of the most emotionally-scarring lines in recent televison history.

“Hughie, you’re evil, you’ve got it all over me.”

Ryan even told Hughie that he “loved him”, during their time in the house, but just in case the message wasn’t received loud and clear, his new inking should do the job.

In a tweet posted yesterday, Ryan shared a picture of the new body art, which shows his boyfriend’s name, followed by a love heart, across his chest.

“The long awaited tattoo of Hughie @bbuk #bbuk #hugietowin,” he wrote alongside the image.

Ryan’s surprise return to the house earlier this week was thankfully well received by Hughie. Will they be able to maintain a romance outside of the house? Well, for the sake of Ryan and his new indelible love note, let’s hope so.

The Big Brother Live Final airs tonight (July 26) at 9pm on Channel 5.
