I'm A Celeb's GK Barry confesses to intimate tattoo mishap that 'looks like ingrown hair'
I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! star GK Barry has confessed she had an unfortunate tattoo done in an intimate area when she was “half cut”.
The influencer was in Los Angeles, California, with her management team in March when they decided to get matching tattoos to mark the occasion. The star, whose real name is Grace Keeling, says the group eventually settled on a cherry design.
And while a majority of Grace’s travel companions chose to get the inking on their arms, she opted for a more intimate location. On his Life’s a Beach podcast, Alan Carr asked: “Have you ever had a tattoo abroad, I see you’ve got tattoos?”

Grace replied: “Oh f***! I got a cherry on my p****.”
A stunned Alan replied: “You got a cherry on your p****? I’m not being funny but don’t fannies get bigger as you get older? It’ll look like a grapefruit.”
The TikTok star responded: “From afar it looks like an ingrown hair, so I’m not really happy with it. I went with my manager and just thought ‘why don’t we all get matching tattoos?’.
“They were like ‘cherries are cute’ so they all got them on their arms and I was a bit half cut, so I thought ‘it’d be really sexy if I got it right here’.
“I sat on the chair and got it done and thought, ‘actually, this looks like some balls’. So, I don’t know why I did that.
“I’m not getting it lasered because I’ve got awful tattoos. I’ve got red mushrooms on my arms.”
Grace is among the famous faces to have gone Down Under into the I’m A Celeb jungle this year. She will be taking part in the Bushtucker Trial tonight with Radio One presenter Dean McCullough.
On her Saving Grace podcast, the star revealed this was the second time she had attempted to be part of the I’m A Celeb line-up. Last year, bosses opted against signing the influencer onto the show after the interview stage.
She said: “I haven’t slept for a month. It’s all haha, heehee until you clock what you’re actually doing. I’ve always wanted to do this show.
“Last year I was interviewed for it and didn’t get it, and I thought I was so upset, and then I was like ‘yeah, it’s fine, because f*** it, that’s trauma that’. So I like put in my head ‘f*** it, I’m doing it now’ and all the things that I’ve told myself are still here.”
