David Beckham pokes fun at his seemingly diminutive stature as pals Tom Brady and Shaquille O’Neal tower over him at his early birthday party
David Beckham poked fun at his seemingly diminutive stature on Monday as he stood next to taller pals Tom Brady and Shaquille O’Neal at his early birthday celebrations in Miami.
The former footballer, who turns 50 on May 2, took to Instagram to share a plethora of snaps from the fun-filled bash featuring a host of his showbiz pals.
Among them were American football star Tom, 47, and basketball legend Shaq, 53, who at 6ft4 and 7ft1 respectively, towered over 5ft11 David.
Making light of the height difference, David captioned his snap writing: ‘I’m so small’, alongside an eye roll emoji.
In the image, the sportsman could be seen with a huge smile on his face as he looked up at the imposing figure of NBA star Shaq.
All three sportsmen cut dapper figures in dark suits for the evening as they joined in the celebrations.
At the party, David was joined by his youngest children Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 13 – with eldest son Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, notably absent.
Cruz and his girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 29, looked smitten as they packed on the PDA, while Romeo cheekily placed his hand on his DJ girlfriend Kim Turnbull’s, 25, bottom.
David and Victoria’s youngest Harper cut a glamorous figure with her platinum blonde locks as she stole the show in a jaw-dropping satin black dress.
The Beckham clan looked every inch the happy family as they got together to celebrate in their favourite city.
David proved he’s still got it in a dapper velour tux while his wife Victoria, who turned 50 last year, showcased her ageless beauty in a thin-strapped white gown.
Victoria wrote: ‘What a way to begin the first of many birthday celebrations for @davidbeckham, surrounded by friends and family x Kisses from Miami!’
David was joined by a slew of his closest friends and several famous faces for the early birthday bash.
Posing for a beaming snap alongside longtime pals Gabe Turner, David Gardner and Ben Winston, he gushed on Instagram: ‘Friends for life’.
