David Beckham left red-faced after forgetting Victoria when naming favorite tattoos

David Beckham recently made an embarrassing mistake while talking about his favorite tattoos when he forgot to mention Ms. Victoria Beckham among the tattoos.

The 47-year-old made the embarrassing mishap while appearing in a YouTube interview with fellow former footballer Gary Neville when the conversation turned to his vast tattoo collection.

David revealed he has over 80 inks as he lovingly described his tattoo tributes to his four children, Brooklyn, 23, Romeo, 19, Cruz, 17, and Harper Beckham, 10.

However, the former England player forgot the cursive name tattoo he has on his hand in greeting to his wife of almost 23 years when Gary asked him about his most prized body art pieces.

“It’s hard to pick a favourite, to be honest. [My] Children’s names,” David replied.

Then, after a moment’s pause, he added: “And Victoria’s. Throw that in,” before laughing guiltily as he realized he’d momentarily forgotten about his wife.

That David misremembers his tattoo of Victoria isn’t all that surprising considering the ex-Spice Girl had her inkings laser removed as an ode to him a few years ago.

Victoria had previously tattooed her husband’s initials on the inside of her wrist, along with the date of their renewed vows of 2006 with David and a Latin phrase that read, “Right from the start again.”

David has other tattoos in tribute to his wife, including “99” on his finger, marking the year the couple married, and on his arm a romantic phrase that reads, “I am my lover and my lover is.” my”.

The sports star has tattoos on his arms, chest, neck and legs and in an interview with Gary mentioned his love for the body comes from his father who inked ships ‘old school’.

David also spoke about an experience with his eldest son Brooklyn’s tattoo, which got him stuck to pal Gary’s bed when he was sleeping over.

“I’m probably 81 [tattoos] now. Person 81, yes. [The first one] I had made it, then I stayed at your house,” David recalled.

“No, that was the second, so the first Brooklyn was on my back.

“The second was the angel and I was sleeping at your house at the time and he was stuck to the bed!”
