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.

The Beckhams reportedly jetted off to Miami, where they are believed to have been living it up for four months, at the end of last year.
