Victoria Beckham praises David as “best dad” amid family spotlight

LONDON: Fashion designer Victoria Beckham has publicly praised her husband David Beckham, calling him the “best daddy” as the family marked Father’s Day.

Taking to Instagram, Victoria Beckham shared a heartfelt message celebrating David Beckham’s role as a father. She described him as a devoted parent and said his greatest achievement has always been their children. She added that the family deeply loves him and appreciated his dedication to fatherhood.

In response, David Beckham also shared a Father’s Day message, reflecting on his journey as a parent. He said being a father is his most important role in life and expressed love for his children. He also thanked Victoria Beckham for giving him a beautiful family, while extending greetings to fathers worldwide.

The public messages came shortly after media reports highlighting controversy involving the couple’s eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, and a FIFA-related advertising campaign.

According to reports, Brooklyn Beckham featured in a FIFA World Cup 2026 promotional advertisement that referenced a “complicated” family situation. In the ad, he made comments that appeared to allude to strained personal relationships, which sparked widespread discussion online.

The advertisement reportedly included a narrative hinting at family distance, which drew criticism from some observers who accused it of monetising personal issues. Sources quoted in international media claimed the campaign raised ethical concerns, though no official complaint has been confirmed.

Neither Victoria Beckham, David Beckham, nor Brooklyn Beckham has issued a formal public response regarding the controversy.

Despite the media attention, Victoria and David Beckham’s Father’s Day messages highlighted a united focus on family and appreciation for parenthood.
