David Beckham shared a rare glimpse inside his family's glamorous European summer, and it was a beautiful photograph of his wife Victoria with a huge smile on her face that stole the show.
The former England captain, 51, has been cruising around the Mediterranean with his family aboard their luxury £16 million superyacht, Seven, travelling from Spain to Ibiza, Saint-Tropez and most recently Italy.
Sharing a collection of personal photographs from their travels on Instagram, David offered fans an intimate look at his summer with Victoria, 52, and their children.

"Someone doesn't love the ocean but she loved this moment," David joked alongside the photograph, tagging Victoria and adding red and yellow heart emojis.
The fashion designer is known for being rather more reserved in photographs, making her beaming smile particularly noticeable.
David and Victoria Beckham pack on the PDA
Twenty-seven years after walking down the aisle, there was no shortage of romance between the couple.
Another photograph from the beginning of the family's trip showed David and Victoria sharing a passionate kiss aboard a boat against a spectacular rocky Spanish coastline.

The pair, who celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary in July, have never been shy about showing their affection for one another.
Later, David shared a relaxed photograph of himself sitting beside Victoria during lunch, resting his head against hers as the former Spice Girl held a fan.
"Love you," he wrote, tagging his wife and adding a pink heart.
The couple's youngest child, Harper, 15, has been with her parents throughout the trip, with David also posting an adorable photograph of himself holding hands with his daughter over lunch.

Victoria promptly reposted it, writing: "I love you so much Harper!!!"
Inside the Beckhams' lavish Mediterranean summer
The family's lengthy European escape began in Spain before they travelled to Ibiza and then Saint-Tropez in the South of France.
Romeo, 23, his girlfriend Kim Turnbull and Cruz, 21, also joined the family for part of the trip, before the brothers returned to the UK for work commitments.

One hilarious photograph showed the famously health-conscious former footballer shirtless and displaying his extensive tattoos as he prepared to tackle an enormous croissant. "Gonna need a little more butter & jam," he joked.
The family's travels have since taken David, Victoria and Harper to Italy's Amalfi Coast.
During a stop in Capri this week, the couple swapped fine dining for a relaxed evening at Concettina ai Tre Santi, where they visited the kitchen and met staff.

Brooklyn Beckham absent from family holiday
One member of the Beckham clan has been noticeably absent from the photographs: David and Victoria's eldest son, Brooklyn, 27.

The family divide has played out publicly over the past year, with Brooklyn and Nicola missing a number of important Beckham family occasions.
David's latest holiday album instead focuses on the family members who joined him during the summer, including plenty of affectionate moments with Victoria and Harper.
