David Beckham spoke fondly about daughter Harper as he praised efforts to support females all over the world on Friday, in a bid to raise awareness of gender inequity.

The former footballer, 49, took to Instagram to share a picture of himself with a group of young girls who seemed delighted to meet the sporting legend.

He captioned the picture: ‘As a proud @unicef Goodwill Ambassador and father to an incredible daughter, an issue close to my heart is for girls everywhere to have their voices heard, to learn and have the chance to fulfil their potential.

‘On this #DayoftheGirl, we encourage our world leaders to continue the fight to protect the rights of adolescent girls #GirlGoals’.

In another image, taken by the charity responsible for providing humanitarian and developmental aid to children worldwide, the star could be seen sharing a joke with a young teen.

David, who shares Harper with his fashion designer wife Victoria Beckham, 50, along with Harper’s brothers Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 19, could be seen smiling as he wore a black T-shirt with Unicef written across it, while the young girl threw her head back and laughed at whatever had just been said.

In the comment section, Unicef responded to the father-of-four and penned: ‘Thank you, David, for always standing with us! Together, we’re helping girls reach their goals and create a brighter future. We’re grateful for your support!’

It comes as Romeo channelled his famous father’s renowned sense of style, while out and about in New York.

The model who celebrated his Balenciaga runway debut earlier in the week, took to the Big Apple streets wearing a patterned satin headscarf.

Romeo kept a cool demeanor in a grey jumper adorned with ‘Campion’ on the front, paired with oversized denim jeans and chunky sand coloured boots.

The second eldest Beckham son finished off his look with a black baseball cap which he wrapped the silk headscarf around.

As he continued to follow in his father’s fashionable footsteps, Romeo could be seen in the head turning ensemble as he climbed some some steps, before swinging from a bar just above them.

It’s not the first time the former footballer has been spotted in a quirky outfit.

David revealed to his 88million followers that an issue close to his heart is 'for girls everywhere to have their voices heard, to learn and have the chance to fulfil their potential'

The Beckham’s attend Victoria’s Paris Fashion Week show

On Monday, as he headed for dinner at Hotel Costes in the French capital after storming the runway at Paris Fashion Week, he donned a pair of grey and white striped tracksuit bottoms over a pair of navy blue shorts.

Paris Fashion Week was not the first time the star has ventured in to the fashion world.

A promising football prospect in his youth, Romeo drifted away from the game after being released by Arsenal in 2015 and turned his attention towards a career in tennis.

However, Romeo then announced he intended on a return to football in 2020 before joining dad David’s MLS franchise Inter Miami the following year.

His first big break in the fashion world came when he was just 10-years-old as he took his first modelling assignment for Burberry.

Following in his mother’s footsteps from a young age, Romeo was undaunted on set as was described as  ‘amazing, incredible and a little joy’ who kept everyone entertained as he was ‘bouncing around’.

His passion for fashion was cemented from an early age as he accompanied Victoria on shoots and mingling among a host of top designers.
