David Beckham jokes he's 'putting his feet up' after son Brooklyn's Florida wedding

David Beckham joked he 'is putting his feet up' after he watched his eldest son Brooklyn marry Nicola Peltz in Florida on Saturday.

Taking to Instagram, the former footballer, 46, said he had a 'long weekend' in store following the multi-million pound celebrations.

David uploaded a clip resting his feet on a digital football, with the ex England player cutting a dapper figure in a black suit which was not too dissimilar from the one he had worn for Brooklyn's big day.

He captioned the shot: "Putting my feet up for the long weekend". He tagged digitalbitsorg- a blockchain for brands.

David's club Inter Miami are set to take on the Seattle Sounders on Sunday and the former footballer looks like he is resting up ahead of the big game.

It has been a busy week for the Beckhams as they watched their eldest son Brooklyn, 23, marry Nicola, 27, in Florida, surrounded by their celebrity pals.

David reportedly 'shed a tear' as he watched his son head down the aisle and later became emotional during a five minute speech about 'Buster' and his new daughter-in-law.

A source told The Sun : "David's speech went on for about five minutes and he looked to shed a tear at one point. He was talking about when Brooklyn was born and how he wanted to protect him.

"He said he was sleeping on the hospital floor, holding the door shut because he didn’t want to let anyone get in. David got a lump in his throat and had to stop and take a breather to regain his composure, but it was a very sweet speech."

Following the speeches, guests were entertained by a jazz quartet and a 12-piece live band with music, dancing and drinking lasting into Sunday morning.

David paid tribute to his eldest son as well as Romeo, 19, and Cruz, 17, when he shared a snap of himself with his boys via Instagram.

He wrote alongside the image: "My beautiful boys & a very proud dad.. Congratulations Bust on a lifetime of happiness, we will always be by your side @brooklynbeckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham we love you @victoriabeckham."

Brooklyn and Nicola tied-the-knot at one of her family’s beach-side homes in Miami, Florida – owned by her businessman father, Nelson Peltz, who is said to be worth £1.3 billion.

The post-wedding reception was held in the grounds of the £76 million home in Palm Beach, where three lavish marquee tents were erected.
