David Beckham has led heart-warming tributes to the most influential women in his life to mark International Women’s Day. The retired England captain took to Instagram on Sunday to celebrate his wife, Victoria, their daughter, Harper, and his mother, Sandra.

Sharing a collection of family photographs, the 50-year-old expressed his deep appreciation for the supportive environment created by the women surrounding him, stating: “So grateful to the strong women in my life x.”

In a particularly moving post, Beckham shared a nostalgic image of 14-year-old Harper from her childhood.
