Max George has tattoo of ex Stacey Giggs' name 'covered up' amid Maisie Smith romance

Max George has given a sneak peak at the tattoo he has had on his wrist – which appears to cover his previous tribute to ex Stacey Giggs.

The Wanted singer Max, 34, reportedly split from Ryan Giggs' ex-wife Stacey, 43, at the beginning of the year but rekindled after Tom Parker's tragic death.

Strictly Come Dancing star Max and Stacey later broke up for good and the All Time Low singer later sparked a romance with his former Strictly co-star Maisie Smith – with the pair later confirming their romance on Instagram.

Now, in a new pictured posted to his Instagram story, Max flashed the new inking which appears to have covered the tatt of his ex Stacey's name.

Max's new inking on his wrist is of a cross, which is completely shaded in, with the horizontal line of the cross now in place of the tribute to his ex.

The singer and former EastEnders actress Maisie, 21, confirmed their romance and went Instagram official in September.

Max gushed over Maisie as he shared a promotional shot from Celebrity SAS, which began on the same night, on his Instagram story.

Underneath the image, Max wrote: "You're my winner already," followed by a love heart.

Later, Maisie revealed the "brutal" experience of Celeb SAS helped her change her outlook on herself.

She told the Mirror: "It changed my outlook about myself.

"It was honestly the best thing I’ve ever done. It got that demon off my shoulder. I went in there with everything I had and I came out feeling like I could literally conquer the world."

She later added how the show helped her open up about her insecurities to Max.

Maisie said: "To be honest, I’m still pinching myself that I managed to get through it. It’s been weird watching it back, because I forgot how brutal it was.

"It’s crazy. But I came out of the show feeling so strong and so confident. And being more confident now, I allowed myself to open up and speak to Max about the feelings I did have about myself and how I feel about myself now.

"So now he really knows me, which is really nice. He knows me entirely. There are no feelings that I’ve kept inside, which is a weight off my shoulders."

She added to The Sun that Max is "very proud" of her and "sees her strength" after watching the gruelling show.

It comes after reports Max and Maisie have 'sparked a tense atmosphere on the Strictly Ballroom tour.

The couple are said to be spending every moment together when Maisie isn't performing. They are even said to have stayed in an Airbnb outside of town for the Sunderland show, while the rest of the cast stayed more central.

A source told The Sun : "Maisie and Max are in the first throes of romance and just wanted to spend all their time together. Max headed to Sunderland with Maisie last week and she rushed to be with him every night after being on stage.

"Everyone gets on but they are slightly bemused by her absence because there has been lots of socialising, which she just hasn’t been part of."
