Victoria Beckham is seemingly ignoring the backlash from Cruz Beckham's latest photoshoot.
The proud mum, 47, uploaded more snaps from her youngest son's now-controversial cover shoot for i-D magazine 's Spring issue, after critics dubbed the pictures "disturbing" and "inappropriate".
The youngest son of Victoria and David Beckham stripped down to his pants and showed off a couple of sneaky tattoos for his debut cover shoot - paying homage to some of his dad's past iconic poses in the images.
In the accompanying interview, it's revealed that Cruz was 16 at the time of being photographed Steven Klein.
Mum Victoria remains unbothered by the split opinions, and after first uploading some snippets to her Instagram Stories, the Spice Girls singer has paid tribute to her child's shoot with three separate Instagram posts - all attracting a slew of comments.
"@cruzbeckham for @i_d [love-heart emoji]," Posh Spice captioned the collection of arty shots to her 29.5million followers, crediting the styling team involved in creating Cruz's look.
"Don’t like this for a kid, it’s totally inappropriate," one of the hundreds of comments read under the star's post.
"OMG he is only 17!let him be his age," another wrote, as a third added: "Sorry but these are just horrible especially on a 17 yo."
Some took issue with the images of Cruz fully-clothed, looking dazed as he was slumped across a scratched leather couch next to an unmade bed.
"Weird. Essence of Trainspotting," one critic told the proud mum, as another bluntly stated: "These photos are inappropriate. Quite disturbing."
Not everyone hated the shoot, with model Isabela Rangel Grutman commenting "Superrrrrr" and another approving fan telling Victoria: "So cool!!!"
Within minutes of the cover first being uploaded to Instagram on Tuesday morning, many fans discussed how they felt about seeing the teenager posing topless for the shoot.
"Feels so weird to see David Beckham’s kids posing like David Beckham," one fan observed underneath the promo snaps.
"Yes especially seeing as he is recreating an image his Dad made at 22.. and he is 16," another weighed in with, as a debate arose regarding whether Cruz is too young to pay homage to his dad.
Fashion mogul Victoria shared series of side-by-side shots of Cruz's shoot alongside topless snaps of dad David posing for a magazine called Arena Homme Plus in 2000.
In the collection of pictures, it's clear to see Cruz's big photoshoot took direct inspiration from the former England captain.
"He learned from the best," Victoria proudly declared on Tuesday.
In the accompanying interview, it's revealed that "Cruz feels older than his sixteen years (seventeen by the time the magazine hits newsstands), and he’s starting to find his feet" in the world, as he begins to embark on his career.
The budding musician reveals in his chat with the publication that he has chosen to pursue a career in music, rather than football, and has a crush on Grammy award-winning artist Billie Ellish.
