David Beckhamand his wifeVictoria Beckhamare always rooting for their son Romeo, even if that means ribbing him a bit.

Romeo, 22, made a surprise runway appearance during Milan Fashion Week for the Versace autumn/winter 2025 show on Friday, Feb. 28.

To celebrate the accomplishment, the English former soccer player, 49, posted a sweet tribute to social media.

“Proud of you mate,” David wrote over a photo ofhis second-born child. He also tagged Donatella Versace, the luxury fashion house and Victoria, 50, in the Instagram Stories post.

But he wasn’t done there — the doting dad added a special song for the occasion:Bruno Mars’ 2016 hit, “Versace on the Floor.”

The former Spice Girl reposted her husband’s Instagram Story, astutely adding a message of her own.

“U have to turn on the sound for this one!!!!” she wrote at the bottom of the photo.

Victoria seemed to be pointing out that the song, which pays homage to Versace, likely has a different meaning than what David intended to express for his son.

The “Wannabe” singer then shared another post to her Stories, once again showing Romeo walking, but adding “Proud of you!”

David and Victoria share four children together: sons Brooklyn Joseph, 25; Romeo James; Cruz David, 20; and daughter Harper Seven, 13.

Romeo got another special social media tribute from both parents when he celebrated his birthday in September 2024.

“Happy 22nd Birthdayto my beautiful boy,” the pro athlete captioned a photo of Romeo as a child. “We are so proud of the man you have turned into, kind , passionate and hard working… Have the most amazing day because you deserve it… Love you mate so much 🩷.”

Victoria shared her appreciation via her Instagram Stories with a series of photos, writing, “We love you so much,” adding a white heart emoji.

Like his parents, Romeo has also entered the world of fashion and sports.
