Outnumbered star Ramona Marquez gets huge dragon tattoo to mark her 18th birthday
The former child star has shown off her new inking just days after she was pictured with a suspicious-looking cigarette
OUTNUMBERED star Ramona Marquez has shown off the huge dragon tattoo that she got to mark her 18th birthday.
The post comes just days after the former child star shocked fans by posing with a suspicious-looking cigarette while celebrating her big day.
Ramona, who turned 18 on 24 February, played youngest child Karen Brockman in the popular BBC sitcom, but it looks as though she is now far removed from her angel-faced character.
The actress previously teased her followers that she was getting a fresh inking when she shared a photo of herself in a tattoo parlour earlier this month.
But last night the star took to her Instagram page to debut the finished piece - revealing a large dragon tat on her upper arm.
In the snap, Ramona is smirking at the camera with her hand above her head to show off the ink in all its glory.
The rock chick has her hair tied back with her fringe swept across her forehead, and is wearing a black tank top with simple necklaces.
Ramona simply captioned the image with two dragon emojis, and was quickly inundated with complimentary messages from impressed fans.
One follower wrote: "I am literally in awe of your tattoo."
Another added: ";Honestly looooveeee this!!!"
Earlier this week, one of Ramona's pals posted a photo of the star looking bleary-eyed as she appears to light a joint in her bedroom.
The pal shared the snap in honour of Ramona's birthday - with the actress looking a far cry from her days in Outnumbered, where she had curly blonde hair and a mischievous twinkle in her eye.
Ramona shot to fame after landing the role of Karen in 2007, aged just six years old.

The final series aired in 2014 but regular Christmas specials have kept fans up to date with the Brockman family, with the last special airing on Boxing Day in 2016.
Tyger Drew-Honey, who played Ramona's on-screen brother Jake in the show, recently teased that there will be another episode of the show.
He said: "[Show creator] Andy Hamilton has mentioned a few times that he’d love to, every couple of years, or every year, do some sort of Outnumbered special because we hope that everyone would still be interested in finding out how we’re all getting on."
