Romeo Beckham proved he had inherited his father’s impressive football skills as he performed keepie-uppies on their family yacht trip in Italy on Thursday.
The star, 22, who turned his back on football last year to sign with a top Paris fashion agency, looked in great spirits on their holiday as he larked around with the ball on the deck.
Looking on was proud mother Victoria, 51, who showcased her toned figure in a skin-tight black top with a cut-out along the back.
She added to the look with a Reebok skirt and baseball cap, looking over at her son before settling down to read The Last Mrs Parrish, a psychological thriller.
Despite being one of the world’s most famous footballers, David didn’t seem too impressed by his own son’s efforts, because he was too busy fixing himself a cocktail.
The former England captain displayed his many tattoos as he went shirtless while carrying his drink outside to enjoy in the sunshine.

The Beckhams have been enjoying a relaxing jaunt around Italy in recent weeks, spending quality time together in the sun.
However, David and Victoria’s eldest son Brooklyn, 26, is absent from the trip as the family are embroiled in an ongoing feud. The conflict began around the time of David’s 50th birthday when the amateur chef and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, failed to attend the celebrations.
The ice shows no sign of thawing as Brooklyn and Nicola recently hosted a vow renewal in the US which none of his family were invited to.
The move has apparently left David and Victoria feeling devastated, as they have reached the point where they believe the rift between them is beyond repair.
The Beckham clan have been ignoring the simmering feud with Brooklyn as they continue to post adoring holiday snaps.
The Beckhams have been snubbed by Brooklyn and his wife Nicola after they said ‘I do’ for a second time on August 2 in Westchester County in front of her family, with the Beckham clan notably absent, having not been informed of the event.
Further heartache has come in the form of a leak of Brooklyn’s speech, in which he reportedly opened up on his love for the Peltz family, as well as speaking ‘movingly’ of his wife in front of the 200 guests.
A source told The Mirror: ‘He spoke from the heart – and at the centre of his heart is Nicola who he loves very dearly, but also the Peltz family who have really stuck by his side. He wanted to recognise them all, and was determined to do them all justice.’

News of the ‘heartfelt tribute’ to billionaire Nelson Peltz, 83, and wife Claudia, 70, will no doubt add to the pain of the Beckham family amid their estrangement from Brooklyn, with it said that no such tribute was given for his own parents.
The couple wed for a second time on August 2 in Westchester County in front of her family, followed by a butterfly-themed afterparty, with the Beckham clan nowhere in sight at either event.
The lack of his family’s presence is the latest sign Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, have washed their hands with his family.
Sources close to the Beckhams claim the family didn’t understand the need for Brooklyn and Nicola to renew their vows just three years after tying the knot in 2022.
A source told The Sun: ‘They would understand if it was, say, 10 years down the line – maybe even five. But three?! It seems like quite a gratuitous display of obscene wealth.
‘Also, if Brooklyn wanted to create a really cute memory, why couldn’t he have just let his family know their plans first?
‘To be honest, although there have been moments of rapprochement, this hostility dates back to 2021, around six months before the original wedding.
‘The dynamics have just never really gelled. Of course David and Victoria want Brooklyn to be happy and clearly he is wildly in love still, but a lot of people have been hurt. It is a sad situation and everyone fears there is no way back now. It is done.’

Brooklyn’s family’s feelings towards their vow renewal could suggest why none of his relatives were on the invite list.
However, Victoria, David and their children Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, were said to have only found out about Brooklyn’s big day after reading about it on a US website.
It’s a stark contrast to Nicola’s family, who had key roles at the second wedding.
Their eldest son has become increasingly estranged from the family ever since he snubbed his father’s 50th birthday, and now, the family fear it’s a final kick in the teeth for them.
A source told The Sun on Monday: ‘This was the final kick in the teeth for David and Victoria. Seeing Nelson having such a pivotal role at the ceremony was heartbreaking for David especially. Not one member of the 30-plus extended family knew about the wedding, or were invited.
‘His grandparents are devastated too as Brooklyn has always been so close to them.’
The source added: ‘It feels cruel and spiteful. This is no longer a game. It has gone beyond all that. This is a family who feel they have lost their precious boy – and see no way back.
‘Honestly, they are now questioning why he even wants to keep the ‘Beckham’ surname – will he revert to Peltz? August 2nd 2025 – is this the day Brooklyn formally declared himself no longer a part of the Beckham family? It certainly feels like it.’

Despite the distance between the family, both David and Victoria have been liking Brooklyn’s recent Instagram posts – although they were yet to acknowledge the couple’s wedding posts at time of publication.
Brooklyn and Nicola first tied the knot in a lavish £3million ceremony in 2022, when relations first began to sour with his parents in the run-up to the big day.
The once close-knit Beckham family has been thrown into turmoil in recent months, amid claims Brooklyn has become increasingly estranged from his famous parents after failing to attend any of his father’s 50th birthday celebrations in May.
It was also revealed that Brooklyn and Nicola’s Instagram accounts no longer follow his younger brothers in the latest family drama.
However, Brooklyn’s friends told Daily Mail that Cruz and Romeo have actually blocked them on the social media platform.
This would make sense given that Brooklyn and Nicola are still following Victoria and David.
David and Victoria have reportedly resigned to the fact that they have become estranged from their beloved son after he failed to attend any of the football ace’s 50th birthday celebrations last month.
He also didn’t wish either his mum Victoria or dad David a happy birthday on social media – an unusual move for the Beckhams, who are known for their loving posts.
This is in stark contrast to a post Brooklyn shared recently for his father-in-law and wrote on a picture of himself and Nicola with the billionaire: ‘Happy birthday Nelson x We love you.’
