Victoria Beckham surprises David Beckham with 'lookalike' birthday balloon

Victoria Beckham surprises David Beckham with 'lookalike' birthday balloon

David Beckham was gifted a special ‘lookalike’ balloon for his birthday courtesy of his loving wife Victoria Beckham.

The former footballer saw double on his special day but it wasn’t down to having a tipple or two.

Fashion designer Victoria had organised a special inflatable to be on display at David’s party which bore more than a passing resemblance to the father-of-four.

She shared the special present on her Instagram Story, joking that she could definitely ‘see similarities’ between the giant balloon and her other half.

balloon was in the form of a man with short brown hair, stubble and a cheeky grin, much like the birthday boy himself.

Pink balloons formed the T-shirt with black balloons serving as a pair of shorts, giving the appearance of a football kit. It even had black trainers on and a football attached to one foot.

Sharing the snaps on social media, Victoria wished her husband a happy birthday before joking: ‘There are similarities I can’t lie’ with a cry-laughing emoji.

The Spice Girls star posted some sweet family photos as well from David’s birthday, including one of him and daughter Harper sharing a hug on the beach in front of a roaring bonfire. Harper smiled sweetly while sat on dad’s knee, and the pair had their arms around each other.
