David Beckham kicked off his early 50th birthday celebrations in style on Monday, hosting a swanky black-tie soirée in Miami.
The former footballer, who officially turns 50 in May, proved he still knows how to throw a party.
DAVID BECKHAM’S BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS
David looked sharp in a velour tuxedo, while his wife Victoria turned heads in a sleek white gown, according to Daily Mail.
Their youngest children—Romeo (22), Cruz (20), and Harper (13)—joined the festivities. They were accompanied by Romeo’s DJ girlfriend, Kim Turnbull (25), and Cruz’s partner, Jackie Apostel (29).
Harper stole the spotlight in a stunning satin black dress.
Notably absent were eldest son Brooklyn (26) and his wife Nicola Peltz (30), who enjoyed a trip to Santa Barbara.
VICTORIA SENDS LOVE TO DAVID BECKHAM
Victoria shared her excitement on Instagram. “What a way to begin the first of many birthday celebrations for @davidbeckham. Surrounded by friends and family x Kisses from Miami!”
David’s guest list included sporting legends like Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba, and Sergio Busquets from his Inter Miami team, according to People.
He also rubbed shoulders with Hollywood stars Justin Theroux and Fisher Stevens. Grammy winner Marc Anthony and American football icon Tom Brady also made an appearance.
TOUCHING TRIBUTES FOR DAVID BECKHAM
Basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal towered over Beckham during a playful photo moment. “I felt like a hobbit next to Shaq!” David joked on Instagram.
Long-time friends Gabe Turner, David Gardner, and Ben Winston joined the celebration as well, according to Geo News.
Beckham shared touching tributes to Gardner, whom he has known since their teenage years at Manchester United’s youth academy.
“Love ya mate. 35 years between us,” he captioned a photo of the two embracing.
THE BECKHAMS AND BIRTHDAY BASHES
Known for extravagant birthday parties, the Beckhams are expected to keep the festivities rolling until David’s big day in May.
Last year, Victoria Beckham celebrated her 50th with a bash in London at an exclusive Mayfair club. If history is any indication, David’s milestone birthday will be equally grand.
The former England captain remains unfazed by turning 50.
In a recent interview with Men’s Health UK, he said: “As long as I’m fit and healthy and my family are healthy, that’s all I care about.”
DAVID BECKHAM’S TIMLESS APPEAL
He revealed his fitness routine includes playing padel three times a week and daily workouts alongside Victoria in their home gym.
David continues to captivate fans worldwide with his charm and style. His recent campaign for BOSS underwear showcased his sculpted physique and tattooed torso.
Fans flooded social media with praise for the star’s timeless appeal. “You’re ageing like fine wine,” one admirer commented.
A GLOBAL ICON
As South Africans follow Beckham’s journey from football legend to global icon, his story resonates across cultures. It’s a reminder that family bonds, hard work, and celebrating milestones are universal joys.
And while Miami may have hosted this glamorous event, it’s clear that David Beckham’s star power shines brightly everywhere.
