David sported "bunny ears" in a fun photo taken during the couple's early anniversary celebrations - and he looked very amused indeed! "Love u" Victoria captioned the image.

On the morning of the Beckham's 18th anniversary, they came downstairs to a celebratory breakfast made by their four children, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper. The table was decorated with flowers and a colourful selection of balloons - aww!

The doting parents were also given a beautiful bouquet of flowers from their four children to mark their anniversary.

David treated Victoria to a hamper of Sassicaia wine to mark 18 years of marriage - which she seemed to like a lot. Captioning a picture of the gift on Instagram, she wrote: "He knows me too well!!! x VB."
