Mark Wahlberg reveals the romantic gesture his wife called the 'nicest thing' he's done

Mark Wahlberg and his wife, Rhea Durham, have been married 14 years.

Mark Wahlberg is giving men some tips on how to woo a lady, sharing how he previously scored points with his longtime wife, Rhea Durham. 

During a recent appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," guest host Jeff Goldblum asked Wahlberg about a tattoo on his ring finger. 

"That's my wife's name — in case I'm not wearing my ring or I'm working," the Massachusetts native explained.

"I got this on Valentine's Day one year. [Rhea] said, ‘That’s the nicest thing you've ever done!' I said, ‘Well, can I have back the expensive jewelry? And we’ll just get you one of these too?'" he joked.

The actor explained that Rhea's name was the only tattoo left on his body; he'd spent five years removing the rest.

"[It's] terribly painful. They promise you that it's very quick. A couple of visits," the 53-year-old explained. "It's like hot bacon grease getting flicked on you over and over and over again."
