Goldie Hawn and her family have got tattoos in celebration of her 60th birthday.

The actress was holidaying in Tahiti with relatives when they made a group decision to get tattoos from a local artist, according to BreakingNews.ie.

Hawn explained: “We were in Tahiti and my older son said: 'You know what would be really cool? Why don't we all get a tattoo for Mom's birthday?' And of course we are a totally game family, so we tried to figure out what we were going to do."

"We ended up going to the tattoo artist and I ended up having a heart drawn on by my daughter-in-law-to-be (on her foot) and I put an initial 'G' on Kurt’s (Kurt Russell) ankle. Then my two sons had the Tahitian symbol for brother (tattooed) on."
