David Beckham shows off his sexy side as he towels off after a shower on board luxury superyacht in the South of France

David Beckham showed off his ripped physique while on board his luxury £16million superyacht in St Tropez this weekend.  

The footballer, 51, is enjoying a cruise with wife Victoria and their son Romeo and decided to cool off from the Mediterranean sunshine with a swim. 

Beckham's rippling abs and numerous tattoos were on display as he dried himself off after a brief shower to wash off the sea water. 

While David swam, Victoria, 52, shared a video on Instagram of herself dancing to Madonna with her long-time friend Jo Manoukian.

She wrote: 'Happy summer. Still dancing to Madonna after 25 years'. 

Victoria sported a black bikini top and a black beach dress. 

Romeo also took to Instagram where he shared some shirtless snaps as he sunbathed in a pair of blue board shorts. 

The middle Beckham son sported a striking resemblance to his father as he too sported a heavily tattooed physique. 

Meanwhile, David and Victoria's estranged son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz holidayed with his godfather Elton John, just 75 miles away in Nice. 

It marks the closest Brooklyn, 27, has been to his estranged family in months as they holiday just along the coast of the French Riviera. 

The Beckhams and Elton have been pals for more than 30 years, with David affectionately calling the musician 'Uncle Elton' after the pair became friends in his football heyday.

Victoria and David recently followed the World Cup around the US with Romeo, Kim, Harper, 15, Cruz, 21, and his girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30.

Despite living across the pond, their eldest son Brooklyn has avoided all family outings amid their ongoing estrangement. 

In January, Brooklyn released a scathing six-page statement denouncing his parents and declared he was no longer part of 'Brand Beckham'.

Brooklyn also claimed David and Victoria had controlled him for much of his life, attempted to drive a wedge between him and Nicola and left him embarrassed when his mother danced 'inappropriately' with him during the first dance at his wedding.

He has not acknowledged any of his parents' birthdays or milestones publicly since their rift began, around the time of David's 50th celebrations, and failed to share a post for Father's Day this year.

It was previously reported that Brooklyn was 'furious' that his parents had included him in a Father's Day post and wants them to 'leave him alone'.

Shortly before Christmas last year, Brooklyn blocked his parents on Instagram, while his lawyers later wrote to the Beckhams' team requesting all communication be conducted through legal representatives. 

The Daily Mail contacted Brooklyn's representatives for comment at the time.
