Something to never forget: The pair were on a boat called Sofia Alda and were seen taking in the sights

They’re partaking in a ‘exceptional’ occasion together in Venice and David Beckham showed the strength of his bond with little girl Harper on Sunday when they took a taxi boat ride together.

David, 47, put a defensive arm around his daughter, 10, as they took in the sights of the delightful environmental factors.
Harper was donning braids and David conveyed her curiosity straw cap close by, ensuring it didn’t blow away – after he shared a video of his most youthful making things happen which made the characters ears go all over.

Sweet moment: David put a protective arm around his youngest child as they made memories together

Every inch the doting dad, David kept a watchful eye on Harper as she stepped on board, giving her the best seat on the boat as she sat atop a comfortable looking cushion.

He looked naturally dapper wearing a crisp blue shirt with the buttons open and the sleeves rolled up and a slick pair of brown trousers.

The sportsman showed off his multiple inkings and wore designer sunglasses, carrying an enormous Hermes Birkin black leather bag in hand which would have set him back tens of thousands of pounds.

The trip so far, largely shared on David’s social media has seen the footballer and his daughter enjoying gondola rides, visiting the Fenice theatre and tucking into 9am gelatos.

David had captioned the early morning clip:

‘Ssssssshhhhhhh don’t tell mummy 9am Gelato. Sorry mummy @victoriabeckham. Creating special memories with #HarperSeven’.

There has been no sign of David’s other children – Brooklyn, 23, Romeo, 19, and Cruz, 17 – whom he shares with wife Victoria, 48, on the trip.

On Monday night, Harper wore a £1,600 pink and purple ballgown from Zimmermann to attend the Riva event at the Fenice theatre as her father’s plus one.
