Beckham's 40 tattoos and the special meaning behind each design (12)

Holy moly: The star continued with his religious theme and added a portrait of Jesus Christ in 2010. The image is based on a painting called The Man Of Sorrows by Catholic artist Matthew R. Brooks and is believed to be another tribute to his grandad, who passed away the year before  

For his children, all four kids have their name inked on David's body, while he has cherubs to represent his three sons and 'Pretty Lady' for his only daughter.

'Mine are all about the people in my life, my wife and sons, who I want with me always,'David has previously said.

'When you see me, you see the tattoos. You see an expression of how I feel about Victoria and the boys. They're part of me.'

Despite now being in his forties, David appears to have no desire to put an end to his permanent, and expensive, hobby.

The father-of-four has previously revealed that he has no regrets about any of his inkings, saying:

'I don't regret any of them. They all have a meaning. I think that's what's important about tattoos, if they have a meaning you'll never regret them.'
