Romeo Beckham mocks dad David over his ‘grey hair’ in hilarious birthday post

Romeo Beckham cheekily mocked his dad David with a savage card to mark his 44th birthday.

Romeo posted a grey card with silver lettering on Instagram, which read: “Dad I got you this card because it matches your hair.”

He then added a cry-laughing emoji and a heart before tagging his father in the post.

He later proved the jibe was all in good spirit as he shared a snap of himself alongside his father and younger sister Harper, seven, from their Bali getaway last year.

“Happy birthday dad I hope you have an amazing day love you so much,” he wrote.

Despite David proving he is ageing well, the star hinted his wife Victoria may not always be that “lucky”.

Last week he shared a mock-up image of himself balding and toothless, which was a computer-generated attempt at what he will supposedly look like in 2020.

Unimpressed David joked that the “future’s bright”, before telling his other half: “Apparently what I’m going to look like in 2020. How lucky are you @VictoriaBeckham.”

David’s birthday celebrations come weeks after he paid tribute to his wife on her 45th by sharing a snap of her looking exhausted after being woken up at 6am by Romeo and siblings Brooklyn, Cruz and Harper.

The family later celebrated in true Beckham style with a lavish meal out as they were joined by Brooklyn’s new girlfriend Hana Cross.

Cross and Brooklyn first confirmed their romance back in December after they put on a united front at the British Fashion Awards in London.

They then went official on Instagram shortly after, with a slew of sweet posts.

However, they have since been swarmed with speculation their romance could be on the rocks after Cross was seen out looking sullen earlier this month. Cross and Brooklyn have not yet commented on the reports.
