David Beckham got the 'best birthday surprise' when his eldest son Brooklyn decided to pay him a secret visit on his special day.

The dad-of-four turned 43 yesterday, and started celebrations with wife Victoria and his brood - minus Brooklyn, who's now studying at university in New York.

Wishing happy birthday to her husband of almost twenty years with an adorable picture of him with Cruz, Romeo and little Harper, Victoria said how they were missing the eldest of their bunch.

She wrote: 'Happy birthday to the best daddy!! X we all love u so much!!! So many kisses from us all xxxx we miss u @brooklynbeckham'.
