David Beckham gathered members of his family around him as he paid tribute to his mother on her birthday. The football star is the son of former hairdresser Sandra - who was celebrating her latest birthday this weekend.

David, 50, was on hand to help his mother ring in her 76th birthday on Saturday. And he brought at least his wife Victoria, 51, and son Romeo, 22, to the celebrations - with former Spice Girl Vicky documenting the day online.

Taking to Instagram Stories, the former singer shared a sunny snap of David posing alongside Sandra and a huge birthday cake that had been cut open to show a colourful sponge. A second image showed Romeo also posing with Sandra for a photo while Victoria added a caption stating "Happy birthday Nanny."

The cheerful scenes came just hours after David had revealed he is recovering from surgery. While the celebrations also come amid an ongoing feud within the family.

For months there have been reports that eldest son Brooklyn, 26, has been distant from his family - not least thanks to the fact he apparently snubbed David's recent landmark birthday celebrations. But taking to social media, Brooklyn shared a tribute to his grandmother.

The influencer shared a throwback picture of himself with Sandra, and captioned it: "Happy birthday nanny xx love you so much."

David also shared a gushing post of his own to celebrate his mother's birthday, and made sure to give Brooklyn a nod. He captioned the tribute post: "Happy birthday mum we love you so much I hope u have the best day.

"Thank you for always being there for us all Love you x @sandra_beckham49 @lynnebeckhambriggs1972 @jo_jo_beckham_ @victoriabeckham @brooklynpeltzbeckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham #HarperSeven."

Last week, fans were concerned to see David in hospital after undergoing surgery. He has since been spotted sporting a sling to support his arm.

On Friday, a source close to David confirmed to the Mirror that he had undergone secret surgery to repair a broken wrist that he sustained 22 years ago - during a friendly football match against South Africa in 2003.

“It had been giving him problems recently and so he wanted to get it fixed,” the source confirmed.

They also added that he planned to check out of the hospital soon and “hoped” to be able to get to Atlanta in time for his Inter Miami football team’s next knockout match in the Fifa world Cup against his former club Paris Saint Germain on Sunday.

Photos were shared via social media showing David in a hospital bed.

Victoria shared a snap of David lying in bed, adding "Get well soon, Daddy," over the snap of him smiling while wearing a hospital gown. She also gave him a friendship bracelet made with white beads to form 'Get Well Soon'.

David recently revealed his long-running career left him with multiple injuries and years of "wear and tear". He said: "Certain parts of my body were a real mess."
