David Beckham has reopened the discussion about the criticism he previously received about his daughter Harper.
The retired Manchester United player often shares family photos on social media, where he regularly expresses his love for his family.
The British midfielder was once embroiled in a controversy after he posted a photo on Instagram of himself affectionately kissing his only daughter Harper on the lips.
Now the 50-year-old footballer has shared another photo, this time of Harper kissing him on the cheek, which was also shared by his wife Victoria.
The former Spice Girl shared the heartwarming image of David and Harper after the family enjoyed dinner with her parents, Jackie and Tony.
David previously defended himself against critics who claimed it was inappropriate to kiss his daughter on the lips.
In a Facebook Live stream, he explained that he kissed all of his children on the lips except his eldest son, Brooklyn.
Stunned by the strong reactions the photo provoked, David said: ‘I kiss all my children on the lips. Brooklyn might not.
‘Brooklyn was 18 at the time, so she might think that’s a bit strange, but I’m very affectionate with the kids. That’s how I was raised and Victoria, and that’s how we are with our children.’
The former England captain continued: ‘We want to show love to our children and we protect them, care for them and support them.’
Like David, Victoria has also shared photos of herself kissing Harper, most notably during a 2017 vacation when the two took a dip in the pool together.
