David and Victoria Beckham are one of the most famous couples in the world. The couple, who said ‘I do’ more than two decades ago, often boasts about their large family, which is very close. The Beckhams couldn’t be prouder of their four children, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper. In the last few hours, a publication by David has drawn attention, and he wanted to dedicate a few words about his 12-year-old daughter Harper, with whom he has a very special relationship.

“My little girl is growing up,” the former Real Madrid player wrote in an Instagram post, along with a black and white photograph in which he appears with his daughter in common with Victoria. The words she has accompanied with an emoticon of a face holding back tears. But that is not all. In the publication she has also sent a warning message to her older children.

Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, and Cruz, 19, are Harper’s older brothers, and their father expects them to act like it. “Guys, get ready,” the model also says in the publication. A fun message that he adorned with a boxing glove, implying that they should protect the youngest of the Beckham clan for all the difficulties that may arise in the future.

Although it was a joke in the style of the former soccer player, what was a reality was the recognition that David offered his wife. “Good job,” he tells her in the publication, highlighting the good upbringing he gave to her children, but also for Harper’s styling on this outing with her parents. It should be noted that the little girl usually goes with them everywhere, and she maintains a very special relationship with her parents.

Despite their efforts to launch the message of a united family, the truth is that the marriage has faced a large number of bumps. Rumors about infidelities have been a constant in their relationship. Despite everything, they have remained united. Their love blossomed in 1997, and a year later they announced their engagement. That same year, in 1998, they announced that they would become parents. In March 1999, they welcomed their first child, Brooklyn.

It was in July 1999 when the couple married at Luttrellstown Castle (Dublin). In 2002, they announced they were expecting their second child, who was born that same September: Romeo. In February 2005, their third child, Cruz, was born. In January 2011, the couple announced that they were expecting their fourth child. In July of the same year, they welcomed their first daughter, Harper. Despite everything bad, the family appears united and happy.
