Ricky Martin Shares Photo of Intense Foot Tattoo (& Fans Are Wondering If It’s Real)

Ricky Martin is showing off some new ink, and his fans are wondering if it's legit. Check out his bold food tattoo in the snap below.

Alongside the caption, "tat·too \ ta-ˈtü \," the black and white photo shows Martin's foot with what looks like four thick black lines running down from the spaces between each of his toes.

Fans were quick to ask whether or not the tattoo is real, though it wouldn't be the singer's first foray into the world of permanent body artwork. Just last week he showed off some pretty major ink on his chest and arms that's been around for a while.

This is just the latest dispatch from lockdown from Martin, who recently gave fans a rare look into his family life via stunning portraits featured in British Vogue's August issue. Taken during the family’s time quarantining in Los Angeles, the photograph features Martin and his hubby, Jwan Yosef, as well as their four children, twins Matteo and Valentino, 11, Lucia, 1, and Renn, 8 months.

The Grammy Award winner also opened up about how he spends his time during the current pandemic. “I’m at home with my husband Jwan Yosef, my mother Nereida, and my four children,” Martin told the magazine. “Keeping busy is not a problem, I have my hands full with two babies and pre-teen twin boys.”

Fingers crossed for a tattoo follow-up post.
