Woman hunting man whose name she had tattooed on her bum during a girls' holiday in Magaluf ten years ago

A mum is trying to track down a man whose name she spontaneously had tattooed on her bum during a girls' trip abroad. Kaylie Williams, 32, was holidaying with four friends on the party island of Magaluf in 2012 when she decided to get a tattoo.

After bumping into a group of lads who were on stag weekend, a man from the group offered to pay for her to get his name on her bum. Bizarrely, she woke the next day to find 'Daniel Forde' tattooed on her left bum cheek - the name of the person who paid for the €30 tattoo.

Realising that Daniel Forde had returned home to Cardiff the day after, she has never seen him since and wants to get back in touch. Kaylie, a support worker from Hereford, said: "I was on holiday in Magaluf and am a bit of party animal and I was just having a fun time with my friends.

"On one night out, we saw a group of lads from Cardiff. They were all dressed as babies getting a tattoo. It was one of the group stag weekend. They had diapers on and everything. I was walking passed and I was drunk. Out of the blue, something popped into my head and I thought 'I will have a tattoo,' quite a lot of people do when they are in places like Magaluf.

"This guy who I got chatting to in the group, said 'why don't you have my name tattooed on you, I will pay for it.' At first I thought he was joking. So I did and he payed for it. It must have been about €30. It was so random.

"The next morning, I realised he was staying at the same hotel as me but he was leaving that day. That was the last I ever saw of him. It was not a holiday romance type of thing. The tattoo was simply a 'yes, let's go for it.' I don't regret my tattoo at all. I will never get rid of it either. It is a nice little reminder of our girls trip away. My partner at the time just used to laugh it off.

Now, after 10 years and a refusal to get rid of her 'Daniel Forde' inking, she has decided to try and find him on social media. She added: "10 years on, I am thinking I should try and find him, it is his name on my bum after all.

"We have a Daniel Forde, but I do not know if it is a Daniel Forde or the Daniel Forde. I am waiting for him to open the message. It will be good to to get back in contact with him just to see if he remembers. If I do manage to find him, I have no idea what I will say to him. Maybe I will offer him his money back for paying for the tattoo. Who knows."
