Happy Birthday! David Beckham, 51, shows off his chiselled physique

Victoria Beckham celebrated her husband David’s 51st birthday in style, showcasing that he’s still got it. On Saturday, she took to Instagram to pay tribute to him.

The former Spice Girl, now 52, posted a heartfelt message accompanied by a photo of David flaunting his toned physique in a pair of tiny red Speedos.

Beaming with pride, the snap captured during one of their numerous vacations highlights the ex-footballer’s impressive abs and tattoos, leaving little to the imagination.

In addition to this eye-catching image, Victoria shared an adorable childhood photo of David holding a football, along with pictures of the couple looking very much in love.

In a heartfelt caption she penned: ‘You are our world, our everything. We love you so much!!! 

“Happy birthday to the best husband, daddy, son, brother, and friend. To the kindest, most generous soul. We will spoil you all day! Nobody deserves it more than you xxx,” she wrote.

Their son Romeo also joined in on the birthday celebrations, posting a sweet tribute on Instagram featuring two nostalgic photos from his childhood with his dad.

He penned: ‘Happy birthday dad, love you so much, thank u for everything you do,’ and ‘My best mate’.

Elsewhere David’s youngest son Cruz, 21, shared two snaps to his Instagram Story showing him and his dad on a yacht as he wrote ‘Happy birthday i love you xxx.’ 

Daughter Harper, 14, followed her brother’s with a sweet post which read: ‘Happy birthday to the best daddy in the whole world’.

‘I honestly could never ask for a better role model too, you are always here for me and I will always be here for you too anytime anywhere have the best day ever, you deserve everything’.

David kicked off his celebrations with a lavish meal at The Dorchester in London on Friday night.

Victoria planted a kiss on David’s cheek as he enjoyed a family evening out complete with a cake and candles on the night before his big day. 

He was joined by his mother Sandra, father Ted and his partner Hilary, as well as sisters Lynne and Jojo for the pre-birthday dinner. Victoria’s parents Jackie and Anthony Adams also attended.

Sharing a series of photos to Instagram, Victoria wrote: ‘The first of many celebrations. Happy birthday eve!’ 

While none of the Beckham children appeared to be present for this occasion, Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz will no doubt fail to celebrate with David at all this weekend. 

David and Victoria haven’t spoken to Brooklyn since last May, when he and his wife snubbed the former footballer’s 50th birthday celebrations.

Victoria addressed her ‘challenging’ past year amid her feud with son Brooklyn in a rare TV interview last week. 

When asked on the Today show by hosts Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones about the tumultuous recent time for the family Victoria didn’t specifically reference her son, 27, but said she will ‘always protect’ her kids.

Jenna directly asked her in the interview: ‘You have had a pretty public challenging year – we have talked about it on this show. How do you get through the tough times?’

She replied: ‘You know, myself and David, we’re so close and we have incredible people around us.

‘We’re close to my parents and David’s parents. We support each other through everything that we do.

‘We love our children so much and have always really focused on protecting our children. But we laugh a lot. David is really, super funny.’

Brooklyn cut ties with his family in a scathing social media statement in January, declaring he has no plans to reconcile with his famous parents and accusing them of ‘controlling him for most of his life’.

David and Victoria have not been seen with their son since.

Victoria also said in the new interview that she and her husband rely on each other to navigate tough times.

She said: ‘We support each other through everything that we do. We’ve grown together. And that’s where I feel so blessed.

‘We really have grown together. We support each other. We’ve both got big dreams. We’re both very, very ambitious and we support each other. I want him to be the best version of himself and that’s what he wants for me.’
