Victoria Beckham and son Brooklyn were David Beckham’s biggest cheerleaders as his new football team, Inter Miami, played for the first time this weekend.
Retired England star David has spent the last few years building his footie dream team and they finally made their anticipated debut at Los Angeles’ Banc of California Stadium on Sunday (1 March), where they played against Major League Soccer’s Los Angeles FC.
As David, 44, intently watched his star players on the field for the first time, doting wife Victoria stood beside him in the VIP box for moral support.
Although it was David’s big day, Victoria had a legion of her own fans in the building as one supporter was seen holding up a banner which frankly stated: ‘I’m just here for Posh Spice.’
At least they were honest!
It looks like Inter Miami’s future games will bring a variety of fans then, with some likely hoping to catch the Spice Girls star in the stands.
Next to Victoria was her eldest son Brooklyn, who was joined by his actress girlfriend Nicola Peltz, indicating that she’s getting on just fine with the Beckham clan just a few months after she struck up a romance with the aspiring photographer.
At one point, the couple were particularly cosy with each other and it looked as though Brooklyn, 20, might have been giving the Bates Motel actress a few pointers on the rules of the game.
In an Instagram photo, Brooklyn shared a photo of David looking out at the stadium and wrote: ‘So proud of you dad,’ with red heart emojis.
Victoria also said: ‘So so so proud of you, and look at that smile!!!’
Brooklyn might want to keep his parents sweet amid reports that they’re planning on splurging £100,000 on his 21st birthday party.
David’s bestie and TV chef Gordon Ramsay was also on-hand for the former footballer’s momentous day, and was seen leaning into David, likely sharing his thoughts on Inter Miami’s performance.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t a great start for the team who lost 1-0 to Los Angeles FC.
The couple’s youngest children, Romeo, Cruz and Harper, didn’t attend the match but all sent sweet good luck cards to their dad.
Still, David celebrated his team’s efforts and wrote in a heartfelt Instagram post: ‘Very proud moment for our club today and the team did us proud…
‘It’s been a long journey but this is only the beginning … To Diego ( The Boss ) the team and our entire staff at @intermiamicf we should be very proud how far we have come and what the future holds… Exciting times ahead.’
Elsewhere in the VIP box, Victoria found time to catch up with her celebrity pals and posed for photos with Eva Longoria, Liv Tyler and her close friend and celebrity stylist Ken Paves.
