So, um, yeah, this seems awkward and kind of emotionally unhealthy. Weeks after being arrested for assaulting his wife, Evelyn Lozada, after which she promptly filed for divorce, former Dolphin Chad Johnson got a giant tattoo of Lozada's face on his leg.

Ochocinco updated his Twitter avatar this weekend with a picture of him displaying the seemingly new tat, which displays a likeness of Lozada's face and nickname "Eve" on his leg.

He's since changed the picture, but addressed the tattoo on Twitter.

Divorce? Child please... that's my WIFE RT @teesplash101: I really want to know why @ochocinco tatted Evelyn's face on his leg post divorce

I dont give a flying pretzel in skittle rainbow hell what she filed for... RT @cchx3reh: I thought she filed for divorce tho?

Lozada, meanwhile, gave an interview last Friday on ABC's Nightline, in which she said she has not talked to Johnson since the alleged assault and intends to go through with the divorce.

"I don't think any woman should ever have to feel like that or be fearful of her husband," she said.
