The Harper Seven Beckham thing has left us speechless. a few days ago, dazzled at an awards ceremony with his motheras we recently informed you. That Harper Seven, stylized and femininewho got on stage, to dedicate some loving words to Victoria Beckhamwith a flattering slip dress, was she the same girl who enjoyed soccer games from the arms of her famous father, David Beckham? Yes, it is the same and palpable proof that, just as Julio Iglesias once sang, there are moments in life when the inevitable change from girl to woman occurs. Harper has not only posed on the red carpet with the fashion icon that is her mother, but the former Spice Girl has also shared, both on Instagram and Tiktok, the private scenes of her daughter and her getting ready for the great occasion… and they have swept it.
Since she is still thirteen years old, Victoria and David have decided that their daughter is not yet old enough to have her own social networks, but this little ‘test’ has shown that Harper has the makings of influencer, and that the moment will not delay long in which we see her succeed on the networksnot only like his parents, but also like Brooklyn, Romero and Cruz, his three media brothers. The youngest of the Beckhams is here to stay.

When Harper came into the world, on July 10, 2011, the stork had not visited the Beckham house for six years. Cruz, until then the youngest in the family, was born in 2005, and was already a schoolboy when Harper Seven joined the clan. It is enough to analyze her name to suspect that the newborn He was going to establish a very special connection with his parents. Harper is a medieval English name linked to the world of music (something like “harpist”) and her middle name, Seven, is due to his father’s jersey numberwhen he played with Manchester United.
To congratulate Harper on her thirteenth birthdayboth Victoria and David They dedicated emotional messages to him. The two knew that Harper had fully entered adolescence and her messages were in line with this new stage: “We are so proud of the happy, beautiful and talented young woman you are becoming,” wrote the businesswoman and designer. For his part, the former footballer (and Knight of the British Empire) publicly admitted that for him his daughter was “his world” and praised Harper’s heart and smile. The congratulations included a video that captured some of those ‘great moments’ between father and daughter that Sir David Beckham fans love so much.

Without a doubt, in the summer of 2011, The Beckhams’ lives changed forever. Victoria stopped being the only woman in a gang of men: David, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz. A few days after Harper’s birth, David Beckham shared a black and white photograph of his wife with his wife on his networks: “I took this photo of my two girls sleeping,” he wrote. Furthermore, a week after Harper’s birth, during a soccer player’s match with Real Madrid, he wore sneakers, with pink stripes, and the names of his four children embroidered in the same color. Pride overflowed from the four cuts.

They have been seen together in the stands of the stadiums and together at the Harry Styles concert, at the Wimbley Stadium in London, but if one photograph moved you because of its tenderness, it was that of Harper applying his makeup with great skill: “Little makeup artist ”Beckham wrote a year ago, a comment and image that won more than a million and a half hearts. On this occasion, Harper’s passion and David Beckham’s power were seen to encourage his daughter to follow what, for the moment, seems like her calling.

What is striking about this matter is the empire of the Beckhams on social networks. It is a continuous addition and continuation. Currently, the patriarch has, on Instagram alone, more than 88 million followers; Victory is about to reach the 33 million; Brooklyn has exceeded 16 million and his brothers follow him: Romeo, with 4 million; and Cruz, who is barely nineteen years old, and already has more than 2 million followers. The above is very close to adding 144 million followers. Thanks to some videos and photos shared by her parents, Harper Seven could hit ground as soon as her parents allow her to have her own networks.
© @davidbeckhamTo size the cyber power Of the Beckhams, it is enough to state one more fact: the former soccer player not only has Instagram, but also Facebook and on this network… 58 million people follow him. In 2022, during the Doha Forum, he reflected on networks and younger people, referring to the case of his children: “Having a number of followers on the social networks of this level is a responsibility and of it you realize when you have children”. For this reason, he assured that he always tries to “use the correct channels” and educate his children on the subject: “In the last couple of years, when we were at home more due to the pandemic, I realized how much time one spends in social media and online, and I try to protect my children, and also children around the world as a UNICEF ambassador. I try to educate about this.”
As a curious fact: the Beckham family added followers on their networks after the broadcast of the four chapters of the documentary, broadcast by Netflixin which, among many other issues, one of the couple’s most serious crises, if not the most serious in their marriage, was touched on: the appearance on stage of Rebecca Loos. According to the very affected designer herself, that was the hardest stage of her life. Well, focusing only on the case of David Beckham, thanks to the documentary, 667,290 more people reached his Instagram, eager to enjoy the content offered by Sir David.
Both David and Victoria think a lot about the what to give on your social networks and how to do it. A good example of the above occurred when they celebrated their twenty-five years of marriage and they gave away to his fans some photographs of both dressed in purplejust as they had gone to their wedding, a quarter of a century before. They caused a sensation and went viral, as did their dance to “Islands in the Streams”, a “behind the scenes” of the aforementioned documentary.

That’s the most important thing for me. I have been lucky enough to experience incredible things in my life and career, but nothing would change me as a person. And that comes from my education.” There is no doubt that it is very difficult to keep your feet on the ground when, like David Beckham, you turn everything you touch into gold. The Beckhams have a fortune valued at 450 million dollars (more than 417 million euros).
In this context and under these circumstances, Harper Seven, under the watchful eye of her parents, takes her first steps into cyberspace with the ground already laid. Without a doubt, the reign of the Beckhams is destined to expand.
