David Beckham took to social media on Sunday morning to gush about fatherhood being his “most important job” in a heartfelt post for Father’s Day.
David shared photos of all four of his children, including his estranged son Brooklyn Beckham, 27, who recently missed out on his father’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony and took a pointed swipe at the ongoing Beckham family feud in a new promotional video.
“Being a dad is my most important job… I love you all & thank you mummy @victoriabeckham for giving me our beautiful family,” David captioned a collection of throwback family photos on Instagram. “Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads around the world,” he added.
The former professional footballer shared several photos from Brooklyn’s childhood, including one of just him and his eldest son both smiling. A younger Brooklyn was beaming in an old group picture with his two brothers, Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 20, as he appeared to hold a baby Harper.
At the end of the carousel post, David added a group photo of him and all four of his children supporting Victoria at London Fashion Week in 2019. At the time of writing, Brooklyn has not posed for Father’s Day.

Public snub
Earlier this month, Brooklyn was noticeably absent from his dad’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony in Los Angeles on 12 June, which was attended by his mother and three siblings.
Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz missed out on the milestone moment amid their ongoing estrangement from the Beckham brood. A few days later, Brooklyn took a thinly-veiled swipe at the family feud in an advert for the FIFA World Cup.

Brooklyn partnered with food delivery company DoorDash for an advert last week that seemed to reference the public fallout.
“You’re probably wondering why I’m watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 from home,” Brooklyn, whose father is notably a former professional footballer, said. “It’s a long story,” he added.
The clip ended with a cryptic message on the screen which read: “It’s complicated. More soon.” The Cloud23 founder declared in a scathing social media post back in January that he does not wish to reconcile with his family and claimed his parents had “controlled” him.
The Beckhams’ Father’s day tributes
Victoria celebrated her husband and father of her four children on Father’s Day with a sweet family vacation photo of David with three sons and daughter. David had his arms around Romeo and Brooklyn’s shoulders as the family all smiled in the water.
“David you truly are the best daddy. Your greatest achievement has always been our beautiful children and we love you so much. Happy Father’s Day,” Victoria captioned the post, which included a more recent solo snap of David.
Romeo gushed that his dad was “the best there is” in his own Father’s Day tribute on Instagram. Meanwhile, Cruz shared a throwback photo of him and his dad each holding a big fish in their hands. “Happy Father’s Day dad x I love you,” he captioned the picture on his Instagram Stories.
While Harper has an Instagram account, her profile is set to private.
