David Beckham’s heartbreaking message to Brooklyn as he shares glimpse at special trip with Harper

The dad of four visited Courchevel in the French Alps last week with daughter Harper, and shared a telling message alongside some snaps

David Beckham appeared to share a heartbreaking message to his estranged son Brooklyn on Monday as he reflected on the importance of “creating memories” with his children.

The dad of four visited Courchevel in the French Alps last week with daughter Harper, and shared a series of snaps from their special dad and daughter trip. The pair could be seen posing for selfies and in one photo, Harper warms up with a hot chocolate. In another, David enjoys a glass of wine as they sit together at a table. In one clip, David can be heard giggling as Harper glides down a snowy slope on her back.

David captioned his post: “Creating memories with the kids either together or one on one has always been been important to me so this week Me and Harper created a few more memories Love you pretty lady @harperbeckham.”

Victoria and David whisked their family off to the upmarket Gymkhana in Piccadilly on Friday evening to mark son Cruz’s 21st birthday – but Brooklyn was noticeable absent from the celebration.

The Beckhams presented a united front as they left the exclusive London establishment, whilst eldest son Brooklyn remains distanced from his family. Cruz marked his milestone with girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30, who wore a T-shirt emblazoned with images of him and his bandmates.

Despite the continuing rift, the family beamed with delight after their feast at the Indian eatery. Victoria, 51, cut an exceptionally stylish figure in pieces from her own fashion label as she emerged from the restaurant alongside Harper, 14, and husband David, 50.

Romeo, 23, and his partner, Kim Turnbull, appeared smitten as they exited moments later, reports the Daily Mail. This comes after Brooklyn rocked up at a food event ahead of his brother Cruz’s 21st birthday on Friday. David and Victoria’s eldest son co-hosted a Burger Bash event at the 2026 South Beach Wine & Food Festival in Miami Beach, Florida, instead of flying home to be with his family.

Meanwhile, it was previously reported that David witnessed a woman’s fall before intervening to check she was okay during the ski trip. The Sun reported that Becks helped remove the woman’s skis before checking her over to ensure she wasn’t hurt. As well as Harper, it’s understood that the former Real Madrid and AC Milan midfielder was with a ski guide, who also drew praise for their response

Beckham took up snowboarding shortly after his retirement in 2013 to stay fit. He and his wife, Victoria, have been regular attendees at Courchevel over the years, though last week’s unfortunate mishap made for a new first

Speaking to The Sun, a source gave a glowing assessment of Beckham as he jumped into action: “David saw the woman hit her head and was worried about her.

“He took her skis off and made sure she was okay – he was a true gentleman. David was incredibly lovely, and so was the ski guide with him.”

Courchevel caters to an exclusive clientele. Prince William and Princess Kate made their own trip to the French destination earlier in 2026.

The Beckhams have made it a habit to get in regular trips on the slopes over the last decade or so. Just last year, Becks ventured to British Columbia for a snowboarding holiday of their own.

Canada has proved particularly popular for the Beckhams, who regularly visit resorts like Island Lake Lodge, near Fernie. Whistler is another renowned mountain destination that the football legend and his family have frequented over the years.

This latest trip to Courchevel is believed to be the Beckhams’ first ski trip since son Brooklyn split from the rest of the family. Davis and Victoria’s eldest son made a bombshell announcement in January after reports he had cut ties with the rest of the Beckham brood.
