David Beckham cradles his sister’s newborn

He is the doting father of four children.

So it’s no surprise David Beckham, 42, was happy to take the reigns when his sister Joanne handed him her newborn at Harvey Nichols, Knightsbridge on Thursday.   

But Joanne, 35, couldn’t resist poking fun at her younger brother on Instagram when she remarked his latest spiky hairdo was similar to her daughter Peggy.

Dad-of-four David also imitated the tiny tot’s animated features to highlight how similar they looked for the playful picture.

The footballer showed off his soft side as he cradled the little girl in his athletic arms for the sweet family snap. 

‘L O V E. M Y. U N C L E… as if me and uncle David have the same hair ! I think he copied me,’ Joanne penned on her social media page with the picture. (sic)

David has been spending some quality time with his family after he touched down back on home turf in London.

The former professional footballer is fresh from his trip to Miami to celebrate the announcement of his long-awaited Major League Soccer franchise.

Hunky David debuted his sleek shorter hairdo, which is the same look he became known for during his younger days as a footballer, on the beach after making the cut.

David and Joanne have a close sibling bond, so of course the Manchester United star was happy to help his sister relaunch her sportswear heritage label with Irish designer Daniel Kearns in 2017.  

Joanne confirmed she had welcomed little Peggy into the world with her beau Kris Donnelly in December 2017. 

Meanwhile, David and his wife ‘Posh Spice’ Victoria are parents to son Brooklyn, 18, Romeo, fifteen, twelve-year-old Cruz and daughter Harper, six.

The married lovebirds have been married for more than 20 years after they tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in 1996.
