David Beckham may not have clinched a victory on the field, but he certainly won hearts off it. On Saturday, the Inter Miami co-founder brought his 12-year-old daughter, Harper, to watch his team’s match against St. Louis in Fort Lauderdale. Despite the game ending in a draw, Beckham cherished the experience with his daughter by his side.
After the match, Beckham shared a heartwarming selfie on social media, featuring himself and Harper posing together in the stadium. The green field and packed stands served as the backdrop. He captioned the post, “Didn’t get the 3 points we wanted but I have this little one by my side [pink heart emoji] #HarperSeven.” In the adorable snapshot, Beckham, 49, wrapped his arm around Harper’s shoulder, both flashing bright smiles.
For the game day, the former footballer looked dapper in a navy-blue suit paired with a matching t-shirt. Meanwhile, Harper was stylish in a pale pink top and blue jeans. The father-daughter duo shared laughs and embraced each other while watching the game. Harper, a football fanatic, often accompanies her father to Inter Miami matches.
David Beckham shared a sweet moment with his daughter Harper on Saturday, as he brought her along to see Inter Miami play St. Louis in Fort Lauderdale. The club co-owner, 49, was clearly hoping his youngest child, 12, would be his good luck charm in the MLS league match. But his team only managed to get a draw in the game, despite footballing legend Lionel Messi making MLS history by becoming the fastest player to reach 25 goal contributions in a season.
David looked in high spirits for most of the match, cutting a dashing figure in a navy blue suit and matching T-shirt underneath. Ever the proud father, he warmly embraced Harper while watching his players, with the duo seen sharing a laugh. Harper took several style cues from her fashion designer mother, Victoria, wearing a pink T-shirt and jeans, with a tiny woven yellow handbag. She cuddled up to her famous dad as he beamed widely and hooked his arms around her waist.
While his youngest son Cruz, 19, was also in attendance to support his father’s team, sporting an Inter Miami jersey. Harper is a longtime football fan and often accompanies David to Inter Miami matches, while also being a huge supporter of the Lionesses. The former footballer later took to his Instagram to share a selfie with his daughter posing in front of the pitch. Captioning the adorable shot, he admitted that while his team had been hoping for a better result, he was happy to have Harper with him. David wrote: ‘Didn’t get the 3 points we wanted but I have this little one by my side #HarperSeven’.
Inter Miami and St. Louis drew at 3-3, despite Messi’s record-breaking goal with a wonderful sidefoot from just inside the box, supplied by his good friend and former Barca teammate Jordi Alba. Even with the draw, Miami (10-3-5, 35 points) took a two-point lead atop the Eastern Conference standings and in MLS overall, ahead of second-place Cincinnati (10-3-3, 33 points), which did not play Saturday. But next week will see Messi joining Argentina to defend the Copa America title it won in 2021, when the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner tearfully lifted his first major trophy for his national team.
Despite not getting the best result for his team, David still had plenty to celebrate at the weekend as Real Madrid won the Champion’s League. He took to his Instagram to display his incredibly chiselled six-pack as he posed shirtless in the sun, with his arms outstretched and eyes closed. Captioning the joyful photo, David praised Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham for his incredible debut performance and victory, writing: ‘HEY JUDE !! What a first season CHAMPIONS’. Jude, 20, commented on the post with a series of heart emojis, after enjoying the ‘best night’ of his life. He set up Vinicius Junior for Madrid’s second goal in their 2-0 victory against Borussia Dortmund and lifted the famous trophy for the very first time.
David’s son Romeo showed himself to be a chip off the old block as he also shared a shirtless snap to his Instagram. The 21-year-old sat astride a wooden fence in front of an idyllic view, in just a pair of black shorts and a beanie, and simply captioned it: ‘Paradise’.
