David Beckham takes his kids to see Santa in Lapland UK after Harper and Cruz’s lavish christening

DAVID Beckham treated his family to a magical trip to Lapland UK after his children Harper and Cruz's A-list christening on Saturday.

The footy legend, 44, relished watching Brooklyn, 20, Romeo, 17, Cruz, 14, and Harper, eight, meet Father Christmas at the Ascot tourist attraction.

The brood looked to have made Santa's good list this year and celebrated by going ice skating outdoors.

Brooklyn looked like he needed a little more help than his sister as he clung on to a penguin aide.

At the weekend mum Victoria took to Instagram to share snaps from the star-studded christening.

In attendance at the Cotswold church ceremony were the whole Beckham clan, plus godparents Eva Longoria and Marc Anthony.

The 45-year-old shared a wholesome snap of her, Becks and their children alongside godparents and family friends Eva, Marc Anthony, hairdresser Ken Paves and sports agent David Gardner.

Posh captioned the sweet snaps: "I couldn’t be more proud of my children and thankful to my family, and the most wonderful Godparents.

"We love you @evalongoria @kenpaves @marcanthony @davidgardner x kisses."

The ceremony was followed by an A-list bash at their Cotswold mansion where the newly baptised Cruz and Harper would be joined by Brooklyn Beckham's godfather, Elton John.

A source close to the couple previously told The Sun: "They have asked party-goers to dress in full-length and fabulous.

"They really enjoy family events like this and are very proud parents.

"They think Christmas is the perfect time for a christening party.

"Drinks will be flowing, chefs will serve amazing food and there will be spectacular fireworks."

Before the ceremony, Victoria shared a cute photo of the youngsters captioned: "Proudest of days today watching Harper and Cruz being baptized in front of our friends and family.

"So much to be grateful for x With love, VB x I love u @davidbeckham."

The snaps come after The Sun exclusively revealed Victoria had unceremoniously bumped David's dad's step-daughter from the occasion.

Divorced Ted, 71, and his partner, millionaire solicitor Hilary Meredith, 60 — had both been invited to the swanky event at the Beckhams’ Cotswolds mansion.

But Hilary’s daughter Charlotte, 27, is reported to have been "blocked" from going.

A source said: “Charlotte believes they are a family and should be invited as a unit.

“In the end Ted asked David if they could bring her. He said he’d speak to Victoria.

“But he came back and said sorry they couldn’t fit one more in.

“The bottom line is Victoria’s mistrust of any outsiders being brought into the fold.

“All the staff working at the party have also had to sign non-disclosure agreements.”

The couple are rumoured to have spent a fortune on the lavish joint christening.
