The most famous of his body art comes in the shape of her name along the inside of his forearm, which is inked in Sanskrit.

The matching tatts translate to, "I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine".
Meanwhile, Becks also has a separate rose inking on his left arm to mark the couple's tenth anniversary.
Neck
One of Beckham's most famous tattoos is on his neck, which is a gothic style cross and wings.
It is symbolic of to his religion and acts as a protective guardian of his son Romeo, whose name is tattooed just below the angel wings.

This was later updated to include the words "Pretty Lady", to mark her fourth birthday.
Back
Beckham's back tattoos serve as tribute to his sons.
He has angel wings at the top as a sign of protection for them.
Becks has both his eldest on Brooklyn, and his youngest son Cruz's names inked across his back.
Body
Beckham has a large chest tattoo that is an image of himself as Jesus, with three cherubs representing his sons, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz.
The footy ace also has a vertical tattoo down his left side in Chinese symbols - this translates as 'Death and life have determined appointments".
Paying homage to his father, he has an inking of a ship at full mast - which is identical to the same one his dad has.

Emmerdale makes embarrassing social media blunder – and it involves sister soap Coronation Street
EMMERDALE made a rather embarrassing social media blunder - and it involved their sister soap Coronation Street. The soaps both air on ITV during the week, and are both filmed up north. 3 Emmerdale made an embarrassing social media blunder with this photo Credit: Instgram 3 The picture was of Corrie characters Abi and Carl - so had been posted to the wrong ITV soap account Credit: ITV Advertisement 3 The pair are having a steamy affair on the soap Credit: ITV However, in a social media blunder, ITV posted a picture on Emmerdale's Instagram account, that was teasing a Coronation Street story. Realising their mistake, the photo was removed and reposted on the Corrie handle instead. The picture was of mechanic Abi, played by Sally Carman-Duttine, and her brother-in-law Carl (Jonathan Howard). Advertisement The two characters are embroiled in an affair, but things could be about to change after they were captured on camera. Sally recently spoke about her character's dramas on the cobbles, including her secret fling with her brother-in-law. "It's complete lust at first sight," Sally told Ok!. "There's that undeniable chemistry – it's palpable. They just click. It was an instant attraction – they bounced off each other and it reignites something in Abi that's been dormant for ages. Advertisement "She's an addict and this gives her a thrill. It's a different kind of thrill, but it's exhilarating for her." Meanwhile, in real life actress Sally is actually happily married to a fellow Corrie star. In the same interview, she opened up about why working with her husband on the soap is a nightmare. Watch the moment Coronation Street's Carl Webster makes a move on sister-in-law Abi Webster Sally married co-star Joe Duttine in 2022, who plays taxi boss Tim Metcalfe. But she said in a recent interview that she would happily never work with him again if she could help it. Advertisement 'I'd be very happy never to have a scene with him ever again,' she joked. 'I love Joe to bits, but I don't like working with him – I'm never going to like working with him." Sally added: "Bless him, we've got very different work processes – let's just put it like that. I like to come fully prepared and he likes to flesh it out on the floor." "Also, he's very funny. I'm such a giggler and once I've gone, I'm gone. It's terrible and even if people get annoyed about it, it doesn't help." She continued: "He absolutely makes me howl with laughter and he does it on purpose. I get cross with him because he knows the situation, but he can't help himself.' Advertisement Sally and Joe quickly fell in love after she first joined Corrie in 2017 and became engaged three years late. They finally tied the knot in 2022 after having to put their wedding on hold due to the pandemic.
