How Does Bam Margera Honor His Son?

Bam Margera, the star from Jackass, got a fresh facial tattoo last week.

This tattoo is dedicated to Phoenix, his five-year-old kid with his former wife, Nicole Boyd.

According to his tattoo artist, Gray Wake, who talked with TMZ, the child's name was engraved in Arabic. Wake's tattoo studio, Tribal Roots Tattoo Studio, is in Escondido, California.

The 43-year-old actor is separated from Phoenix's mother, Boyd, who filed for divorce from Bam this year.

She claimed he was drunk when he saw his kid. Following their divorce, she also accused him of abandoning her without a car or money.

Bam came to Instagram over the weekend to explain that he got the tattoo because he missed his child and to criticize his ex.

He said, "I miss Phoenix the wolf so much I had to get his name tattooed on my f***in face to remind Nikki she is breaking my heart by not letting me see him."

According to the tattoo artist, Bam did not have an appointment and came in.

And he didn't come alone. A male friend accompanied the actor throughout his visit.

Gray also stated that Bam requested that his son's name be inscribed in Arabic but did not explain why.

Bam already had the design on his phone, which he showed the artist to copy. The website also stated that Bam had a "small" tattoo on his hand. However, it was not specified what the tattoo signified.

Boyd filed for formal separation in February 2021. The couple married in 2013, but she filed for divorce in Los Angeles, citing irreconcilable differences as the cause for their divorce. Nicole specified September 2021 as the date of their divorce.

She requested legal and physical custody of Phoenix in paperwork. But she wanted Bam to have visitation privileges and spousal maintenance in the Los Angeles county region.

It's been a difficult year for Bam. He was detained earlier this month for domestic violence.

A lady, not his estranged wife, reported the stunt performer kicking her. He was caught at 5:30 a.m. when cops were called to a residence in Escondido, California.

Bam, whose actual name is Brandon Cole, was booked into the Vista Correctional Center on a charge of physical harm to a current or past partner, according to TMZ.

He was later released after paying $50,000 bail.

According to Lt. Ryan Wisniewski of the San Diego County Sheriff's Department, Bam was due in court that week.

Bam claims in January that he was declared dead in December 2022 after experiencing four seizures. Bam was brought to the hospital after contracting coronavirus. During one seizure, he chewed his tongue so hard that it almost fell out. He subsequently swallowed contaminated blood, which gave him pneumonia.
