David Beckham, the soccer icon, is the proud father of four children. Initially, he and his wife, Victoria Beckham, had three sons, but David and Victoria were overjoyed to learn that their fourth child would be a girl. Although David is well-known for his soccer skills, the sportsman considers being a father to be his most important duty.
Brooklyn Joseph Beckham, David and Victoria’s first child, was born a few months before their wedding in 1999. Following his birth, his parents married and settled down, quickly adding Brooklyn’s younger brothers, Romeo James Beckham in 2002, and Cruz David Beckham in 2005, to their family.

Finally, in 2011, David and Victoria learned that she was expecting their fourth child. Naturally, the family was pleased about getting another little Beckham baby, but what put them “over the moon” was finding out they were having a little girl. On July 10, 2011, Harper Seven Beckham was born.
When David saw that he was being bullied online all the time, he wanted to fight back, but his family and friends told him not to poke the bear because he would only get more mean comments if he did.
David revealed his daughter’s name, Harper, explaining that they selected it since it is an ancient English name. They also chose it because of its ties to the author of “To Kill a Mockingbird,” Harper Lee. For the soccer star and his wife, the name Seven, on the other hand, has spiritual meaning.
Unfortunately, being the child of a renowned athlete attracts a lot of attention, and internet users have been following Harper since she was a toddler. Many Twitter users reacted to her weight, with one writing, “Look, I know that big kids are good babies, but you really gotta be cautious or you’ll end up like Harper Beckham… Another person added:
“I hear Harper Beckham is already too big to fit inside her mother’s clothing.”
Later, in 2017, little Harper became the subject of online vitriol once more when internet users raced to social media to remark on her weight during a Beckham family beach vacation. Some speculated that Harper should have shed her baby weight by then. One user commented on another photo of her with her father:
“It appears that someone consumes an excessive amount of unhealthy food.”
When David observed the constant online bullying, he wanted to retaliate, but his family and friends cautioned him not to poke the bear since a response would very certainly have elicited additional ill-natured comments. Nonetheless, Victoria and her husband couldn’t bear it when their daughter was mocked.
Following these experiences, David has grown far more protective of his daughter. The soccer player talked about how he and his wife have attempted to protect her from body-shaming and online abuse, claiming they’ve kept her away from social media so far. They are nevertheless aware of the impending danger. Victoria revealed:
“Harper isn’t on social media, so we don’t have to be concerned about that for the time being.” But, given how vicious people can be, yeah, that does worry me. “She’s at the age where her body will begin to change, but it’s important that we talk frequently as a family and that she surrounds herself with pleasant companions.”

David also works hard to ensure that she has a lifetime of wonderful memories. The adoring father frequently uploads photos of their most recent trips on Instagram, and it’s evident that David adores his only daughter. In several films, he describes how they go on surprise expeditions to get ice cream and enjoy the sights while traveling.
The father of four lavishes attention on his only daughter. They fulfilled their sweet tooth by heading out for gelato at 9 a.m. in Venice, and the athlete posted, “Don’t tell mummy.” They then had doughnuts with the rest of the family. Harper is clearly maturing into a nice, clever young lady.

Victoria also said that she and David’s child dislike wearing exposed clothing or cosmetics. In fact, Victoria revealed that Harper chastised her for wearing exposed clothing while she was a member of the Spice Girls. The renowned mother recalls how horrified her daughter was when she saw it and vowed she would “absolutely not” wear anything similar in the future.
