Abi told fans she was "so excited" to announce she was returning to tattooing - creating a studio with "privacy" in mind.

"So freakin’ excited to announce the reason I’ve been a little quiet over the past few weeks is because I’ve been working hard to create my own little private tattoo studio," she wrote.

"It’s something I’ve thought about doing so many times but just not had the guts to do it.

"Due to tattooing a large amount of intimate areas on majority woman, I felt like I wanted to be able to offer an option of a private space to make sure I knew they always felt 100% comfortable."

The TV star also revealed she was due to be a resident artist at a local tattoo shop on the weekends for other clients.

"I thought it only right to introduce my little private studio to the world to you, this is my new baby, ‘Forever Grateful'," Abi concluded.

It comes after Abi revealed she had moved in with her boyfriend and gave fans a glimpse inside their plush new home.

She announced the news in February after getting back together with David Aboro Fitzpatrick following their split last summer. 

She posed with events director David outside the red-brick pad and the pair looked completely in love with their house.

She held a set of keys in the sweet snap and gushed: “Such a pinch me moment. I can’t believe I’m announcing this but we bought a mother fudging houseeee!!
