Who's the artist behind David Beckham's latest tattoo?

Renowned tattoo artist Certified Letter Boy drew the praying hands design on one of Beckham’s legs, very close to his knee.

CLB also shared photos with Beckham and a picture of the new tattoo from a distance, while captioning, “Praying hands tattoo for the main man. ”Thank you for the trust, DB 🫶🏻.” 

Interestingly, film director Fisher Stevens revealed in the Netflix docuseries that the British soccer star is inching close to his 100th tattoo.

“At the time, I asked, ‘How many tattoos do you have?’ He said, ‘I have 88,’ ” Stevens mentioned, according to People.

The director, however, later found out that Beckham had at least "six more" tattoos that he hadn’t included in the number he mentioned previously.

Stevens asked the star “why” he had so many tattoos and he recalled Beckham telling him, “I just like them.”

“I go, ‘Is there some form of self-torture?’ And he said, ‘No, I don’t think so.’ I thought so,” Stevens added.

Beckham, who has several tattoos dedicated to his family, recently talked about his wife Victoria Beckham and how there was instant connection between them. 

“Absolutely," he began, before adding, "Well, of course. She was a Spice Girl and sexy and beautiful and charming. Then I found out what a strong woman she is. So it’s again the gift that kept on giving,” according to the outlet.
