This is Alistair Campbell, father of six-year-old Charlotte. Charlotte has two cochlear implants to help her hearing - and in a heartwarming move of Father-of-the-Year proportions, Alistair now has one too.

Alistair got the tattoo after Charlotte's second cochlear implant to show his support of her. Speaking to BuzzFeed News, Alistair described watching Charlotte's journey:
"It has changed her life being given the gift of sound."

Charlotte's mother had a cochlear implant and her brother, Lewis, wears hearing aids - so it came as no shock when Charlotte needed two implants, the first when she was four.

Speaking to the New Zealand Herald, Alistair said he wanted to get the tattoo to prove his love for her. "My hair can grow back," he said.

Charlotte reportedly told her dad that she thought the tattoo was "cool," with Charlotte's mother saying she didn't think Charlotte had grasped the significance of the tattoo just yet.

Alistair says the tattoo, which took about 45 minutes, involved “a little bit of pain but nothing I couldn’t handle.”
