“生日快樂！維多利亞·貝克漢姆！” 小貝在為性感嬌妻慶祝生日之際，也首次公開展露了自己右臂上新刺的“恐怖”紋身。新刺青長約2英尺，內(nèi)容整體以浮云組成，其中，“圣殿騎士”圖案和刺字“讓他們在怕我的時候恨我吧”被認為具有豐富的象征涵義。這些刺青表達了小貝對離開故土、轉(zhuǎn)會美國的痛苦之情，更證實了媒體有關(guān)“轉(zhuǎn)會是辣妹的決定”這一猜測。此外，這次的刺青是貝克漢姆違背辣妹之意、堅持去做的。在辣妹看來，這樣的圖騰不是移居美國的好兆頭。

He asked the tattoo artist to etch the Knight Templar on his arm as he "feels the knights were the best equipped, trained, and disciplined fighting units of the Crusades, just as he has always tried to be as a footballer representing his team of knights".

The main tattoo on the forearm is a giant angel sentinel, holding a flame in her hand so that her face is illuminated from below. The wings spread round Beckham's arm and merge with the existing tattoos.

The second tattoo across his arm is a quote by the Roman Emperor Tiberius and also used by Caligula.

It reads: "Lets them hate (me) as long as they fear (me)."

It is written in English though Beckham originally wanted it written in Latin.

The reason he was advised not to do it in Latin is because the middle word would have been 'dum', which he is understood to have been adamant he did not want on his arm for fear of cruel jibes about his own intellect. The new tattoo's detail is difficult to make out, since it is merged with tattoos which were already there.

The end result is a rather unpretty mess.

Already on the arm are the words 'Perfectio In Spiritu' which means 'spiritual perfection', and the roman numerals VII - which relates to Beckham's No7 shirt.

Beckham's left arm carries wife Victoria's name in Hindi plus the words Ut Amem et Foveam (So that I love and cherish). On his back he has a huge angel in the shapoe of a cross and his three sons' names Romeo, Brooklyn and Cruz.
