Victoria and David Beckham celebrated their daughter Harper's 13th birthday on Wednesday by sharing sweet messages on social media celebrating the milestone.

Fashion designer Victoria, 50, called her only daughter her “best friend” and praised her as a “beautiful and talented young woman” in her Instagram post.

She shared a series of baby photos of herself, some never before seen, as well as a series of images of her growing up and them posing together as a mother-daughter duo.

Former footballer David, 49, shared the same montage of his “beautiful little girl” and said she was “his world”.

Victoria wrote in the caption of her post: “Happy birthday to my best friend. You are sweet and kind and your smile warms our hearts every day.

“You are truly our everything, Harper Seven, and we are so proud of the happy, beautiful, and talented young woman you are becoming.

“We love you so much Kisses @DavidBeckham @BrooklynPeltzBeckham @RomeoBeckham @CruzBeckham xxx.”

David wrote in his message: “Happy 13th birthday to my beautiful baby girl. Daddy is so proud of you.

You have grown into a kind, generous, and beautiful young woman with the most amazing heart and smile that we all love so much.

“Always be the beautiful person you are. Harper Seven, you are my world. #HarperSeven @victoriabeckham @brooklynpeltzbeckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham.”

Victoria and David also share sons Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, and Cruz, 19.

The selection of images shows her as a young child, taking part in dance classes, attending some of Victoria's early fashion shows and even dancing in a white beekeeper's costume on her family's Cotswold estate.

Other photos and videos show her posing with her mother at VB headquarters and dancing in restaurants while on vacation.

It comes after Victoria and David stepped back into their now iconic wedding outfits for a fun Instagram snap ahead of their 25th anniversary last Thursday.

The couple married at Luttrellstown Castle in Ireland in 1999 in a lavish ceremony that cost nearly £1 million.

Not only did the couple once again don their matching purple ensembles at the reception, but they also sat on their famous gold thrones.

Timeless Victoria showed off her long legs in the Antonio Berardi gown which featured a floral ruffled neckline and a daring slit which she paired with statement heels.

Meanwhile, David looked dapper in his suit with matching suede shoes and flashed a big smile as he held his wife's hand.

The couple, who share four children, captioned the joint post: “Look what we found.”

David previously joked about his look during a 2017 appearance on Radio 4's Desert Island Discs: “I even had a purple top hat on, what was I thinking? I looked like the guys from Dumb and Dumber.”

In the comments section, David's mother Sandra exclaimed: “25 years and you still look amazing, special memories.”

While her younger sister Joanne wrote: “You are as beautiful today as you were then, iconic.”

Victoria wore a more demure champagne Vera Wang gown for the ceremony, while the groom opted for a white suit.

During an appearance on Jimmy Fallon in 2021, she said of the outfit change: “At the time, it seemed like a really good idea, you know?

“That’s true. I think it was naivety at the time, we didn’t know anything about fashion.

Before adding: “We were just having fun, which, to be honest with you, is kind of the way it should be.”

Sparing no expense for the big day back, the power couple hired Bentley's Entertainments, organisers of Elton John's birthday as well as Princess Anne's 40th birthday, to organise the high-profile showbiz event.

Their picturesque Irish venue spanned 560 acres and dated back to the 18th century. Organiser Peregrine Armstrong-Jones explained to OK! how “Victoria wanted a really private and unique place, somewhere green and leafy.”

She had hired Simon Lycett, who had worked on the 90s romantic comedy Four Weddings and a Funeral, to arrange the floral arrangements – with fresh apples having been pierced and strewn around the castle to release the fruit's fragrance.

While David arrived in a £230,000 Bentley Azure, wearing a cream suit designed by Timothy Everett, Victoria wore a Vera Wang dress as she rode in style in a Bentley Arnage.

She attracted attention with a diamond and gold crown, custom-made by Slim Barrett, who previously made accessories for Princess Diana.
