Van den Bergh gets new tattoo in New Zealand: "A traditional maori tattoo depicting his life story"

Dimitri Van den Bergh was active at the New Zealand Darts Masters last weekend. Whilst there, the Belgian also took the opportunity to get a new tattoo.

Van den Bergh got a Kirituhi, a traditional Maori tattoo, on his left calf. "In that tattoo is his life story. He also got a greenstone from Damon Heta and his wife Meaghan (their housemates in England), just like me and our little daughter Oonah. Dimitri has the male version and we have the female. That's really something from there," Van den Bergh's wife Evi told GVA.

The tattoo was placed by Kimball Roberts, a local tattoo artist. "Darts youth world champion Dimitri Van den Bergh over from Belgium, my brother super blessed to have you come through this way," said the New Zealander. "Was good to get to know you and a bit about your background. I hope this piece reminds you of who you love and how you've come. Good luck on your future endeavours, 'til next time bro."
