Victoria Beckham is marking her 52nd birthday today, with her son Romeo taking the lead in celebrating the occasion on social media.

The 23-year-old was first among the fashion designer's children to post a tribute, sharing photographs alongside a loving message.

"Happy Birthday mum love you so so much have the best day @victoriabeckham," Romeo wrote to his followers.

Among the images he posted was a nostalgic snapshot from his childhood, showing the pair watching his father Sir David play football.

The former Spice Girl's milestone birthday comes amid a difficult period for the family, though Romeo's public display of affection demonstrated the close bond between mother and son.

Cruz, 21, had not yet shared his own tribute at the time of writing.

However, his girlfriend Jackie Apostel did share a heartfelt message for the birthday celebrations.

The singer posted an effusive tribute on social media, expressing gratitude towards her boyfriend's mother.

"Haaaaapy birthday @victoriabeckham. Thank you for raising my favourite human in the whole world," Apostel wrote.

She continued: "How lucky are we to be surrounded by your kindness and inspired by your spirit everyday. Love u!!!!"

The warm words from Cruz's partner highlighted the close relationship she has developed with the Beckham family since the couple began dating.

Jackie's message praising Victoria's kindness and spirit offered a touching counterpoint to the more difficult family dynamics that have emerged in recent months surrounding eldest son Brooklyn.

Victoria had already begun her birthday festivities ahead of the big day, enjoying an intimate dinner with her daughter Harper in Miami.

The pair dined at Casadonna, where the fashion mogul was presented with a white birthday cake as a surprise.

Mother and daughter embraced warmly during the celebratory evening out.

For the occasion, Victoria chose a glamorous navy jersey gown from her own fashion label, priced at £990.

"So I'm here in Miami and tonight I'm going out with my girlfriends for my birthday and I just got this amazing navy blue jersey dress which I love," she explained.

"It is just the perfect party dress for a night out with my girlfriends."

The early celebration allowed Victoria to spend quality time with her youngest child before her actual birthday.

In the days leading up to her birthday, Victoria addressed the ongoing estrangement from her eldest son Brooklyn in an interview with the Wall Street Journal.

Though the publication noted she did not mention him by name, the 51-year-old spoke directly about the family rift for the first time.

"I think that we've always we love our children so much," she said. "We've always tried to be the best parents that we can be."

She added: "We've been in the public eye for more than 30 years right now, and all we've ever tried to do is protect our children and love our children. And you know, that's all I really want to say about it."

Brooklyn, 27, severed ties with his parents in January through a scathing social media statement, accusing them of controlling him throughout his life.
