Victoria and David Beckham are looking back on “great memories” they had with their family, including estranged son Brooklyn Beckham amid public feud. On Thursday (January 22), photographer Platon Atoniou shared an Instagram carousel featuring photos from a 2006 photo shoot in Madrid, Spain, with the 50-year-old English footballer. In the caption, he wrote about a family moment from the set, recalling how Victoria visited with their three sons, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz.

Victoria arrived with Brooklyn, who was seven years old, Romeo, who was four and Cruz, who was just a baby,” Platon wrote. “Brooklyn and Romeo charged into the studio wearing football kits, kicking balls, doing headers and other tricks. While Victoria was busy with the children, I started work with David,” he continued. “At one point, Brooklyn ran on set with his football under his arm and hugged his dad’s right leg. Then, Romeo joined his older brother. Then, Victoria also appeared with baby Cruz in her arms.” “The whole family turned away from us for a private heartfelt group hug,” the photographer added to his caption. “It was a poignant thing to see — this spontaneous moment of affection happening on a giant photography set in front of 60 people. Celebrity comes with a heavy price and often it is family members who also pay.” He went on to say that the moment would have made for a beautiful photo, but he didn’t feel right infringing on their privacy. “After the session, I approached Victoria and asked if we could recreate the family embrace I had seen from my perspective. She gently smiled and said, ‘Thank you for not taking that picture earlier. Today, I’m not here as a celebrity, I’m here as a mother. I hope you don’t mind if I respectfully pass,’” Platon shared. “I found Victoria’s human response dignified and sincere.” In the comments section, both the former Spice Girls member and her husband left sweet remarks. Victoria said, “Brings back great memories! ❤️” “Good memories ❤️ @platon,” wrote David. This trip down memory lane comes during a challenging time for the Beckham family. Last week, Brooklyn shared a lengthy statement online confirming the long-rumored tension between him and his wife Nicola Peltz, and his parents. You can read his statement here.
