Victoria Beckham is reportedly set get her long-awaited fertility symbol tattoo to help her conceive a baby girl with husband David Beckham.

According to the People newspaper, Victoria is flying tattooist Louis Malloy - who is responsible for many of the couple’s existing ink work - over to Los Angeles in the next few weeks to carry out the work on her inner thigh.

A source told the newspaper: “Victoria’s remaining pretty coy about the exact design of her new tattoo. But she’s been researching some of the classic fertility symbols. She wants the tattoo to be of a feminine nature.”

“And she says she’s prepared to put up with a bit of pain on her thigh as long as the design has the desired effect.”

“Once her forthcoming Spice Girls reunion tour is over, Victoria definitely wants more children. And this time she is convinced it will be a girl.”

While in Los Angeles, Louis is also expected to add another piece of artwork to David’s collection - specifically a design dedicated to his new team, LA Galxy.

The source added: David wants to prove to all his doubters that he really is serious about playing for his new team. The symbol will be on his skin forever.”
