Welsh singer-songwriter and Powys business owner Charlotte Church has taken to social media to share with fans a 'life-changing' first she underwent recently. 

The 37-year-old singer, who runs Laura Ashley's former home near Rhayader as a wellbeing retreat, got her first tattoo a few weeks ago and shared the experience with fans on Instagram yesterday.

On Instagram, Church said: "Having my first ever tattoos a couple of weeks ago was an absolutely life changing experience!

"Shoutout to @aimeecornwelltattoo for her wonderful work."

Church's inkwork was done by a fellow Welshy - tattooist and artist Aimee Corwell.

The singer-songwriter spent the last two years renovating the seven-bedroom Rhydoldog, near Rhayader, to turn it into a healing retreat.
