Victoria Beckham wasn’t taking any chances when it came to her son Brooklyn’s first date! And she employed his father, David Beckham, do a little chaperoning for the teen’s big night.
During his appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Becks told viewers that he accompanied Brooklyn to his Valentine’s Day dinner date when he was just 14. David shared the story after being asked by the show’s host James Corden if his son was dating.
“He's going to hate me for this,” David told Corden before launching into the funny tale.
“I’m fine with it, because on his first date -- when he was about 14 and a half -- it was Valentine's Day so he said, ‘I’d love to take this girl to dinner,’” said Beckham. He continued, “I said, ‘Okay, great.’ I spoke to Victoria, and she was like, ‘Really?,’ so I said, ‘Yeah, he's going to do it.’”
