David Beckham is known for his full-body tattoos – in fact, they're almost as synonymous as his football skills. But wife Victoria Beckham has taken a more low-key approach to body art, with just a few tattoos here and there. Up until recently, one of those tattoos was a tribute to her husband of two decades, but the singer turned fashion designer recently opted to have the scripted initials removed, sparking divorce rumours and sending fans of the couple int a frenzy.

Thankfully, David and Victoria aren't headed for splitsville, as she's just revealed why she had the tattoo removed. "I had these tattoos a long, long time ago. And they just weren’t particularly delicate," Victoria said during an appearance on Thursday's Today show.

While the 48-year-old went on to say she's still a fan of tattoos, like the "gorgeous" ones her husband and children have, she just didn't feel the same about her own. "Mine were just a little bit thick, and they were bleeding a little bit and just not looking as pretty," Victoria explained. "They just didn’t look so nice. It doesn’t mean anything more than that."

Emphasising that fans have nothing to worry about when it comes to her and David's marriage, the former Spice Girls star added: "I think that the media started to speculate [if] I [was] leaving my husband. No. I was just a bit sick of the tattoo. It’s as simple as that."

Phew! Victoria and David 4eva!
