David and Victoria Beckham marked their son Brooklyn’s 23rd birthday by raiding their old photo albums and sharing some vintage snaps.

On Friday morning, the couple posted birthday tributes to the eldest Beckham child on their respective Instagram pages, with Victoria praising Brooklyn for “changing my life forever”.

Alongside a photo of herself holding her son as a baby during a family holiday, she wrote: “23 years ago today my life changed forever, I felt a love impossible to explain.

“Brooklyn, you have no idea how much we all love you. Happy Birthday to the sweetest, kindest soul.”

David also posted an old pic of himself holding Brooklyn when he was just a baby, writing a sweet message using the 23-year-old’s family nickname, Buster.

“Happy Birthday to my amazing boy,” he said. “Happy Birthday Bust we love u so much. Have the most amazing day.” 

Brooklyn’s younger brother Romeo also posted his own birthday message on his Instagram page, alongside a throwback snap of the three Beckham brothers:

Photographer (and occasional bacon sandwich chef) Brooklyn is the eldest son of David and Victoria, and was born four months before their lavish wedding.

Since then, the couple welcomed three more children, Romeo, Cruz and Harper, who are now 19, 17 and 10 years old, respectively.

Brooklyn has been engaged to Nicola Peltz – the American star of Bates Motel, Holidate and the upcoming film Lola James – since July 2020.

It’s been reported by The Mirror that the pair will tie the knot next month in Florida, with Romeo and Cruz both thought to be on best man duties.
