David Beckham shared a selfie with his mother after being treated to his "favourite" childhood meal at her house - though it sparked banter among the family on social media.
The former footballer, 47, paid a visit to his mum Sandra Beckham, 73, recently and shared a photo of them together with his 73 million followers on Instagram yesterday.
He said that you "can't beat dinner with mum" and revealed to his followers that the meal had consisted of gammon, chips, pineapple, fried egg, coleslaw and mushy peas.
The father-of-four said that it was his "favourite as a kid" and added in the caption that the meal at his mum's house had been followed by a jam doughnut and a cup of tea.
He also took the opportunity to tease his younger sister Joanne Beckham, 40, in the caption. He wrote in the recent post: "Sorry [Joanne], the [king] was home for dinner."
The post has since amassed more than 620,000 likes on the platform and attracted almost 3,000 comments, including from some of his family, such as his two sisters.
Joanne teased: "Wonder if [mum] got the king mug out the cupboard for you too. Anything for the king. Oh was there a red carpet too?" She included laughing emojis in her reply.

And there was also a response to the selfie post from Gordon Ramsay, 55, who wrote: "I'm on my way." Sandra replied stating that he is "welcome any time" at her house.
And there were a number of other responses in the comments section, with some of David's followers having agreed with the sentiment shared in the caption of the post.
"Everything's well with the world after dinner with mum," said one person. Another commented: "Nothing quite like dinner at your mums! Always grounding and special."
Another follower wrote: "This is what really counts: special moments with mum." Whilst a fourth said in their response: "Not had that meal in years. Reminds me of my mum."
