The sweet snap comes on his father Ted's 69th birthday with David known for having an intensely close relationship with his family. 

It would David's dad Ted who famously encouraged his prodigious footballing talents sending him to the Bobby Moore Soccer Academy as a youngster, which landed him at the Old Trafford not long after.

Meanwhile, David chose to show off his childish side with a cheeky dig at wife Victoria after she  posted a video of the footballing legend mucking about in a gym in LA.

The striker called his designer wife a 'k***' and swore revenge after she poked fun at him as he swung on a gymnastics hoop in a stetson.

Victoria, 43, captioned the humourous Instagram video: 'Spider-Man didn't work out but there's always Indiana Jones!' 

David clearly fancied himself as an action star as he swung around above padded fall cushions. 

His wife even added the theme music to the Indiana Jones movies to go with her short video clip. 

David was quick to retort and replied to his wife: 'K***, oh I will get you back for this.'

Earlier on Sunday, David was spotted with his four children leaving Soho Beach House in Malibu, seemingly without his fashion designer wife.

The seeming absence of Victoria had fueled the 'separate lives' allegations despite the fact the celebrity couple had been spotted the day before cruising in their £200k family Bentley SUV.

A family friend even came forward to MailOnline to brand the claims 'ridiculous'.

David was seen leaving the ocean-front private club with his children with Victoria -  Brooklyn, 18, Romeo, 14, Cruz, 12, and Harper, six.  

The Beckhams recently purchased a country retreat in rural Oxfordshire, it's been previously reported.

A source told MailOnline on Sunday: 'There is a kids' barn and a grown up barn - no his and hers separate living accommodation. What a ridiculous suggestion.'

The Chipping Norton home has been created from three barns and the living quarters are said to be separated by a gallery.

A source told The Mail On Sunday: ‘The planning permission was pretty restrictive and stated the three barns had to stay separate.

‘It actually works out well for David, Victoria and the kids. If they are all driving each other mad, they can retreat into these wings like they are living in separate houses.

'It is handy for Soho Farmhouse, so David can escape for a party whenever he fancies it – and that seems to be one reason he chose to buy that property.’
