Sam Thompson has a tattoo of best friend Pete Wicks on his arm.
The Made In Chelsea star, 28, flashed a glimpse of the inking on Instagram, which showed TOWIE's Pete, 32, complete with his long hair and fedora.
Pete and Sam grew close while filming Celebs Go Dating in 2018 and now co-host their own E4 show together, Reality News.

An eagle-eyed fan noticed the image on Sam's forearm and asked 'Is that a tattoo of Pete on your arm?'
Sam shared the comment to his profile using the crying with laughter emoji.
While it's unknown when Sam got the tattoo, it's the first time a fan has noticed the marking that cements the pair's close friendship.
Pete was there for Sam during his toughest times last year when he temporarily split from girlfriend Zara McDermott, 24.
The duo even lived together while filming Channel 4's The Circle shortly after Sam's breakup went public.

In December, Sam spoke to MailOnline about rekindling his romance with Zara, after discovering she had been disloyal to him at the beginning of their relationship.
Sam confessed to sympathising with Zara after learning from his own past and being 'the person who's made a mistake and come back stronger.'
He also said he 'believes in forgiveness', which marked the beginning of the pair's reconciliation, with them still going strong today.
Sam credited Pete for guiding him through the breakup that was filmed for Made In Chelsea last season.

He told MailOnline: 'Pete wouldn't say this about me but I would say he's my best friend.
'I go to him with any problem I have, all the things that went wrong in my personal life, he was the first person I told. I get his advice on everything - he's my rock.
'My dream is to stay in this industry and eventually start hosting my own show with Pete. We're such an eclectic duo that every single second I spend with him is so interesting and so fun. I would love to do that in front of an audience.'
Sam's 'dream' eventually came true now the duo regularly host their show Reality News together in which they discuss the latest gossip from the Showbiz world.
