For nearly two decades, Victoria and David Beckham have been one of the most admired couples whose happy marriage seems like such a rarity for those in the limelight.
With their four beautiful, talented children, and both of them enjoying success in their respective fields: sports and fashion, it’s not hard to believe that David no longer has insecurities or doubts about the stability of their relationship.
“I’m secure as a person, as a husband, as a dad,” David said in an interview with GQ. “I’ve gone past the point of really worrying, caring. When I was 22 years old, it might have affected me differently. I’m 40, I’ve got four amazing kids, and an amazing wife, amazing parents, amazing in-laws, amazing friends who I trust: It doesn’t matter what people say.”

But even in blissful, lasting marriages such as David and Victoria’s, there has to be some compromises.
While they are both supportive of one another’s endeavors as well as decisions, there was one thing Victoria wasn’t always on board with.
David shared with GQ that there was a point where she wanted him to stop getting tattoos all over his chiseled bod and arms. The bulk of which Victoria can’t even locate at this point.
“The tattoos are a way of me expressing deeper feelings about the things I care about and love,” explains David. “Am I done? Probably not.… Think Victoria’s given up on telling me to stop now. She used to. She used to say, ‘Do you have to?’ But she knows it makes me happy.”

David has reportedly spent over £54,000 on his tattoos but we’re certain this one is his most priceless one yet.
