David Beckham gets a kiss from Harper in London: the cutest thing ever?

These photos are like heartbreakingly beautiful, right? These photos look like an ad for Levis. Or good parenting. Or diapers. David Beckham decided to take Harper Seven out for a walk in London this morning and something about light… something about how Harper reacts to her daddy… something about the way he looks at her… God, I might need to have a wistful cry. Yes, I’m PMSing, but these photos are pretty awesome too.

We don’t say this enough, but I do think Beckham (both Beckhams, actually) are pretty awesome parents. They both seem incredibly hands-on, they both seem demonstrative and affectionate with their children. David and Posh just seem to love their kids in a very real way. I’m sure they’re not the only celebrity parents who are this hands-on, but they’re a really good example of it.

Something else that will make you smile wistfully as you dab your eyes? David has a band-aid on his finger. It’s a Dora the Explorer band-aid!!!! OMG.

Also: the photo of Harper kissing her daddy? OH MY GOD. Fine, David. I will buy whatever you want to sell me.

    I agree-they both appear like hands on, devoted parents. And I like Victoria-and I know her whole weird thing about not smiling-but it’s almost like Harper reflects that when she’s with her mom. She looks smiley with her father, not so much with her mother.

    beautiful.

  3. Suze says:

    Harper is the prettiest baby! I can’t believe how long her hair is.

  4. MojoRising says:

    These pics made my uterus lurch. And yes, no matter how superficial Posh seems to be, they always seem to be great parents and together as a unit. And I do sometimes think – Can she really be that superficial if she’s willing to stretch her body outta whack 4 times? I think there may be more to Posh than she lets on.

    :::swoon::: that made my cold, bitter heart melt. Love him!

    Adorable and very cute writeup Celebitchy!

    I like VB. I think she gets a bad rap for not smiling, but I see it more as a F you to the paps, not her true personality.

    She seems really devoted to her kids and I like the fact that she seems to let them just be kids..I love the fact that Cruz was sporting superhero costumes all around town at one point.

    Their kids seems genuinely happy and they seem to be devoted parents.

    • JenD says:

      Co-sign everything you said.

    • jess says:

      Agreed! I’ve seen some hilarious interviews with her, and I personally thought her reality show was really entertaining.

    • Karma says:

      I completely agree.

      And some people just don’t photograph well smiling, never mind the paps coming at her from all sorts of unflattering angles.

    • Ms.Smurf says:

      I read somewhere that she doesn’t like her smile, so she doesn’t smile. It is a little weird….it’s kind of like Courtney Stodden’s smile- her lips are thin so they kind of stretch around her mouth. But her smile is nicer, since she actually looks happy.

      I saw VB on a talk show a few years ago, and was surprised at how warm she was….her ice queen/dominatrix personna/pose doesn’t carry over when she opens her mouth and talks.

      • lisa says:

        yes, she openly admits to having a very gummy smile and doesnt like to be photographed with an open smile. i never took it to mean that in private she doesnt laugh or smile.

    • MissMoody says:

      On the reality show that they did when David was moving to Spain to play for Real Madrid several years ago there were a number of scenes with Victoria and the kids. I remember one where she was on her hands and knees on the floor (in heels/designer dress of course) playfully chasing after one of her sons (Brooklyn was still young then and the second one was a baby). It was sweet and a far cry from her Ice Queen persona. Then again, cameras were present. I still think the Beckhams are good parents though

  8. cmc says:

    I love the pic of Harper swiveling her whole body around to ham it up for the cameras. She’s so cute!

  9. marie says:

    so, so adorable. gah, I’m a sucker for pictures of the two of them together..

    • j.eyre says:

      I don’t think they have a name yet for the sound I made at seeing that kissing picture. I’m done… I don’t need anything else today – smile set.

  10. annabelle says:

    I think I’ve just been spontaneously impregnated. That’s how strong my ovary lust for this is.

  11. Matty Srom says:

    Posh devoted to her kids? Take a look at when they were in Paris, visiting some museum. She barely could walk in her awful shoes and jeans, the youngest son pushed Harper in her trolley (and at several points the little one almost fell out of it) and when they got back to the car after the visit Posh grabbed Harper like she was some kind of a rag. Video on Daily Mail.

    • Belinda LB says:

      I totally agree with you Matty! Posh was ridiculous in that video and I don’t get the hype about this family, sure they get the kids out often enough to make sure the paps get what they want, but they are not cuter than any other average kid you see on the street. Sorry.

  12. Reece says:

    *gasp* I held out til the 5th picture…*dies of cuteness*

  13. RHONYC says:

    & to all that said that H7 was always demonstrating a poopy-pout (like Vicki):

    IN. YO. FACE!!! 😛

    i loooooooovee how she’s so smiley AND directly into the camera to boot!!!

    Happy Hump Day Bitchies…this so made my day! 😀 😀 😀

  14. Madpoe says:

    All of their children look like him.

  15. EmmaStoneWannabe says:

    🙂

  16. molly says:

    I have never see this child standing on her own two feet, has anyone else ? Is she miserable face’s pet doll or her daughter?

    • bluhare says:

      Keep in mind that there’s a horde of photographers taking their photos. I wouldn’t put my baby down either.

    • akua says:

      My daughter at that age always wanted to be held, and I’m sure if there were photogs all around she’d have been even worse, as she’s naturally shy. So I can see that, especially as the people trying to get pics can be rather aggressive, from what I’ve seen. Think they look so cute together!

      • molly says:

        I’ve seen loads of celebrity children walking with their parents holding their hands with photographers around, even the royal family, so photographers are no excuse !!

    • jaye says:

      They carry their baby…so what? I’m sure she gets to walk around plenty. People get so nitpicky.

    • Trek Girl says:

      There were pictures of her walking in what I think was the airport. She was adorable and so small that it was hard to believe that she would be walking at all.

      Google “Harper Seven walking” and they will pop right up.

    • Danica says:

      Good grief! Get a life!

  17. Anna says:

    I might rip out my own tongue after this, but this might even rival the Chris Hemsworth and Baby India awesomeness

  18. Belle says:

    These pics are DARLING and Harper is an absolute doll!

    As for the devoted, amazing, fabulous, hands-on, super-hero parenting… hmmmm. I don’t doubt that David and Posh both love their children, and they seem like a happy family. That’s about it though 😉

  19. Joy says:

    Ovaries exploding everywhere is the only sound I can hear right now.

  20. bluhare says:

    Harper is such a little ham. She’s the anti-Posh!

    Her father’s in my Freebie Five. They don’t have to be smart, she says defensively.

  21. ladybert62 says:

    The kiss is cute.

    The name is just too weird – harper seven? Sounds like something out of star trek.

    His tattoos are so unattractive.

  22. Cordelia says:

    This child kills me!!

  23. Itsa Reallyme says:

    That is a happy, well loved child. Those little shoes!

  24. anoneemouse says:

    The “David” in her must be coming out – I actually see a smile! So cute!

  25. JL says:

    That ladies is what a real man looks like.
    Harper is one adorable tot.

  26. Jess says:

    I don’t know about now, but before they moved to the US they had enough nannies to care for a 100 kids. Seriously, with that plus the chefs and cleaners and live in hair dressers they had significantly more staff than some of the major royals. I’m sure they love their kids, but hands-on when the cameras aren’t around? I doubt it.

    I’ve never understood the attraction to Beckham. Nice body, but he has a rodenty face, and even if you overlook that surely the voice, the supremely low IQ, the enabling of his anorexic wife and the fact that he can’t keep his golden balls in his pants is enough to put people off??? He’s gross.

  27. sharylmj says:

    Love this family 🙂 they all seem super happy and well adjusted and so beautiful! That little girl is THE CUTEST!!! All of their chldren are clearly loved and well taken care of

    • Hatuh says:

      I’m with you. I am so often shocked by the things people will believe, and how personally they react to much of the info in this site. It’s a little disturbing.

  28. Lucky Charm says:

    If Harper and Knox got together in about 20 years, they would have absolutely the world’s most adorable kids.

    A devoted daddy with his darling daughter is about the sexiest thing…(big sigh)

  29. Lee says:

    That soft baby kiss…sigh…

  30. Karma says:

    Awww….that is all kinds of adorable!

    And so is that Dora the Explorer band-aid…lol

  31. Dawn says:

    These are such cute pictures! I think they have such cute kids and they seem to be very hands on parents which is totally cool.

  32. Haolebunny says:

    What a darling photo! I was in the WORST mood before I saw this. Nothing like some sweet baby love to make me smile again.

  33. KellyinSeattle says:

    The yellow sweater!!!!!!

  34. Christina says:

    As blatant a pap walk as I am yet to see.

  35. emma says:

    so sweet

  36. Ginger says:

    I attended quite a few LA Galaxy games while David was playing and I can tell you that Victoria and the kids were always there. The kids are well behaved and both parents are attentive. And they are even better looking in person which I didn’t think was possible but it was!

  37. Maritza says:

    Harper is adorable but David Beckham has really gone overboard with the tattoos, enough already they don’t look pretty.

  38. Cody says:

    He seems to really enjoy taking care of her and she is definitely Daddy’s little girl.

  39. aang says:

    Cute. I hope Posh doesn’t pass on her fear of food to her daughter.

  40. Nicolette says:

    That little girl is such a cutie! Daddy’s not too shabby either 🙂

  41. Loulou says:

    Both close their eyes too, when sharing a kiss. Impossibly sweet!!

  42. gg says:

    This is the cutest thing ever. That she smiles so prettily when she sees the camera is too cute.

  43. Riley says:

    And how cute is it that he’s holding her dress down so the photogs don’t get a shot of her unmentionables. Sweetest dad ever!!!

  44. Em says:

    That child is so cute and I’m dying to know if what little she can say at this age, does she say it with a british accent?

  45. annie says:

    Except for one major exception I’d agree they might be good parents:

    Victoria walks with that baby in her arms on dangerously high heels. That is not safe at all. Not when the heels are stilettos. I’ve seem women in heels manage very well with kids in their arms however there is no way on earth that walking down a busy street carrying a fairly big baby wearing mile high stilettos is safe.

  46. LaurieH says:

    David is gorgeous. Harper is utterly adorable. The two of them together is just plain beautiful.

  47. I Choose Me says:

    My favourite celebrity baby other than Samuel Affleck and old soul Louis Bullock. I know it’s silly but I love their expressive little faces.

  48. Barrett says:

    I honestly have never ever seen a more beautiful child!

  49. Barrett says:

    I honestly have never ever seen a more beautiful child!

  50. skeptic says:

    That is one adorable little girl. And I bet she has David wrapped around her little finger already.

  51. Abby says:

    so cute!!! I am loving the daddy-baby celeb pics these days. Warms my heart.

  52. Mia says:

    Adorable.

  53. Alexa says:

    So cute. And not tryin’ to brag — BUT — she looks just like me when I was a baby/toddler. 🙂

  54. Heathers says:

    this little tot is killing me with the cuteness. so adorable, and yes, the photo of them kissing nearly made me faint. beautiful!

  55. citygirlsf says:

    I love how freakin’ CHUBBY she is. Proves that Victoria is just a regular ol’ mommy who lets her kids EAT, which humanizes her for me, a lot.
