Victoria and David Beckham recently revisited cherished family memories through a rare and affectionate exchange on social media involving their eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham. The moment unfolded on Instagram after renowned photographer Platon Antoniou shared throwback images from a 2006 photoshoot with David Beckham.
The archival post included a reflective caption describing the warmth and closeness of the Beckham family during the shoot. Antoniou recalled how the Beckham children moved freely around the set, creating an atmosphere that felt more like a family gathering than a celebrity production. David responded to the post with a simple “Good memories,” while Victoria added, “Brings back great memories!”
In his caption, Antoniou described witnessing a deeply personal moment when the entire family turned away from the cameras to share a private group hug. He noted that although the moment would have made a powerful photograph, he chose not to capture it, saying he preferred to preserve it “with my eyes” rather than risk violating the family’s trust.
The interaction has drawn attention due to its timing. It comes amid a widely discussed public rift between the Beckhams and Brooklyn, who recently shared a lengthy Instagram statement criticising his parents for prioritising their public image and controlling the narrative around family matters. Brooklyn also suggested that reconciliation was no longer his goal.
Victoria and David have largely remained silent regarding their son’s claims. Over the years, however, the couple has consistently shared milestones and everyday moments involving their children—Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper—offering glimpses into their family life despite intense public scrutiny.
