David Beckham throws lavish party
As reported by Mirror, David Beckham, who recently talked about his children moving out, threw a lavish 50th birthday party in Miami. As expected with the former footballer, it wasn’t a small event. The Beckham family dressed to the nines for the occasion.
David opted for a black tuxedo and bowtie combination, while Victoria wore a satin white gown. The couple’s children’s outfits were just as stunning. Cruz and Romeo followed their father’s style with black tuxedos and bowties, while Harper donned a satin black dress.
The family were accompanied by Cruz and Romeo’s girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, 29, and Kim Turnbull, 25.
Victoria, who celebrated her 50th in 2024, shared snapshots of the major event, with the caption claiming it was the ‘first of many birthday celebrations’.

The party also included many of David Beckham’s friends, including longtime pals Gabe Turner, David Gardner, and Ben Winston. Other footballers were also in attendance, such as Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, as well as superstar Lionel Messi.
Where were Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz?
As mentioned above, two members of the Beckham family were noticeably absent from the celebration. Indeed, Brooklyn, 26, and his wife, Nicola Peltz, 30, were missing.
The couple have not given a direct reason for missing the event. However, it has been suggested they were not present as it was an early celebration and will likely be present for the many others to come, as noted by Victoria.
Brooklyn and Nicola live in the other side of the country, Los Angeles, and on Monday April 1, Brooklyn took to Instagram to post pictures from a recent trip he took with Nicola to Santa Barbara.
It isn’t the first time Brooklyn has missed a family event. Indeed, he missed his mother’s Paris Fashion Week show in March. The 26-year-old was promoting his £15 hot sauce range Cloud23.
