Harper Beckham and Nicola Peltz are closer than you think as new photos are revealed

Nicola Peltz Beckham and Harper Beckham, the 12-year-old daughter of Victoria and David Beckham, have recently showcased a remarkable sisterly bond in a series of heartwarming photos.

On Monday (10 July), the 28-year-old actor, who is married to Brooklyn Beckham, celebrated Harper's birthday by sharing adorable pictures of their time together on Instagram. Alongside the photos, Nicola expressed her affection, saying: 'You are the most amazing girl I am so lucky to have you in my life. I love you more than you even know! (Can we always match forever??)'

Matching tattoo sparks online debate

While the birthday tribute received an outpouring of love, one photo captured particular attention. In the image, Nicola and Victoria and David Beckham’s youngest child appeared to have matching butterfly tattoos, sparking a debate among social media users about their authenticity and appropriateness considering Harper's age. One Instagram user wrote: 'Please tell me that’s a fake tattoo on this 11 year old.'

Another gushed, 'A 12 yr old getting a tattoo. You’re a beautiful girl happy birthday but the tattoo is a no for me.'

A third user commented, 'That is not a real tattoo people, chill,” while another person asked: “Has no one ever had a fake tattoo as a kid?'

Despite the speculation, it is highly likely that the tattoos are temporary and age-appropriate for Harper, reports PopSugar.

The Beckham family's love for tattoos is well-known, with Brooklyn Beckham sporting an extensive collection dedicated to his wife, Nicola. As Harper grows older, she may choose to follow in her family's footsteps and explore the world of body art.

Outpouring of wishes on Harper's birthday

Amidst the celebration, Victoria Beckham, Harper's mother, expressed her gratitude for Nicola's birthday tribute by leaving four pink heart emojis on the Instagram post. The proud parents, Victoria and David, also commemorated their daughter's special day with heartfelt messages and shared glimpses of the festivities on social media.

The former Spice Girl wrote on her Instagram, 'Happy Birthday Harper Seven. The sweetest, kindest soul. Your love and energy is a blessing to everyone lucky enough to know and love you. You are our everything. We love you so much.

Meanwhile, former Manchester United star David Beckham posted his own tribute to their only daughter, writing on Instagram alongside a recap video: 'Happy Birthday my pretty lady. Keep being beautiful inside and out. You are the most amazing little girl a daddy could wish for. Daddy loves you.'

Victoria and David Beckham recently marked Harper's 12th birthday with a celebration at the renowned Prada Caffè located in Harrods. The birthday girl was spotted wearing an elegant silk lilac slip dress adorned with delicate lace trim, a creation from her mother's esteemed fashion label. Completing her stylish ensemble were a pair of comfortable sneakers and a luxurious £950 Prada Re-Edition handbag, as per InStyle.

Sister bond slams fallout rumors

In recent years, rumors have circulated about tensions between Nicola Peltz and Victoria Beckham. However, in a revealing interview, the Transformers star dismissed these speculations and clarified that there is no feud between her and her mother-in-law. She emphasized the prevalence of misinformation in the media, telling Cosmopolitan:

'I’ve said this so many times: There’s no feud. I don’t know. No one ever wants to write the nice things. It’s really weird, actually, whether it’s my life or someone else’s life or whatever, when you know the truth and then you read something totally wrong.'

Rumors of potential tension between Nicola Peltz and Victoria Beckham began circulating last year, with reports suggesting that their relationship had been strained due to the wedding and Nicola's choice of a Valentino bridal gown. However, Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola addressed and dismissed these claims in a joint interview with Variety, where Brooklyn reassured everyone that 'everyone gets along, which is good.'

Nicola shed light on the dress selection process, sharing that she had initially desired Victoria to design her wedding gown. However, as time passed, it became apparent that it wasn't feasible. Nicola explained:

'I was going to and I really wanted to, and then a few months down the line, she realized that her atelier couldn't do it, so then I had to pick another dress.'
