David and Victoria Beckham celebrate their ‘little princess’ Harper’s sixth birthday
The youngest of the Beckham clan went to a private tea party last week at the royal residence.
David and Victoria Beckham marked their daughter Harper’s sixth birthday by sharing pictures of her at a Buckingham Palace tea party from last week.
The retired footballer and ex-Spice Girl shared pictures on their Instagram pages of their youngest child dressed as a princess, while meeting Princess Eugenie with her friends at the event.
Harper was one of several youngsters at the royal residence last week for a tea party held in the Duke of York’s private apartments.
A spokesman for Sarah, Duchess of York said: “The Duke of York and the York family hosted a private event at the private apartments of the Duke at Buckingham Palace which was privately catered.”
He said it was not the Duchess’s event but was a “private family event” which he said was a “small family tea”.
One shot shared on David’s page showed him cuddling his daughter with Buckingham Palace as the backdrop.
He wrote: “Happy Birthday to our special little young lady … Such a special girl who brings so much joy and happiness into our lives…
“Happy 6th birthday (I can’t believe your 6 already) have the most amazing day we love you pretty lady x (sic).”
David wrote: “Lucky Harper meeting a real life princess at the Palace x.”
A snap shared by Victoria of Harper in her princess costume – chosen because she knew she was going to the Palace – saw her standing in front of the grand building with a balloon in her hand.
The previous day, Victoria had shared a family photo on her social media page of herself and David with family members as they celebrated their youngest child’s birthday.
On her Instagram story – a reel of pictures and video that disappears after 24 hours – Victoria revealed that Harper was greeted by a large pile of presents and balloons and a family breakfast to mark her big day.
David later posted a new photograph and referenced last week’s tea party in the post.
Their eldest child, son Brooklyn, is 18, while middle sons Romeo and Cruz are 14 and 12 respectively.
David and Victoria recently celebrated their 18th wedding anniversary, as they tied the knot on July 4 1999.
