Captioning the pic "cowgirls first ink", Megan had two tiny tattoos on her fingers – one on her fourth finger saying "yeehaw"; and a second on her little finger of a heart.
The tiny tats were in honour of her growing country music career, which has seen her travel the world and even perform at Glastonbury in 2022.
Last year, she achieved 6.4million streams on Spotify with listeners tuning in from across the globe.
In November, Megan noted how much her music meant to her and how she's struggled to prove her worth to doubters due to her reality TV background on Towie and Celebrity Big Brother.

Megan was previously signed to Simon Cowell's label Syco, after wowwing the judges on X Factor: Celebrity.
However, she parted ways with the group in 2022 after three years and two albums, saying they were encouraging her to focus on pop music rather than the country music she loved.
She's since been releasing music independently, and is due to perform at the Country 2 Country music festival at the O2 Arena in March.
