Picture this: I’m in a conference room, deep in discussion with the editor-in-chief, when suddenly I spot a familiar figure outside the glass door. It’s none other than my dad, proudly waving a giant sign that reads: “Hire her. I’ve got cheesesteaks!” Somehow, I still landed the job.
Fast forward to recently, and Brooklyn Beckham and I now share a hilarious connection beyond just our matching last names: we both have dads who totally embarrass us! So here’s the scoop: Brooklyn hit a major milestone by reaching one million Instagram followers and decided to celebrate by posting a video. He kicked it off by saying, “So it’s my mum’s birthday today and I just reached a million followers.” But before he could finish, in pops David Beckham, stealing the spotlight with, “I’ve got 52!”
Honestly, it was quite a comical moment, but knowing David’s history of intentionally embarrassing his kids, you have to wonder if this was all part of his plan. Just a few months back, he shared with the Daily Mail that Brooklyn is now at that age where he prefers to keep some distance from dad during school drop-offs. So what does David do? He rolls down the window and shouts, “I love you!” as his son walks into school. Brooklyn wasn’t thrilled at the moment, but he eventually smiled about it days later. Just take a moment to imagine the sight of David Beckham shouting sweet nothings from a car!
Brooklyn took the Instagram incident like a champ, captioning his video with, “Reached 1 million followers on my mum’s birthday. Thank u guys so much #ismydadcoolerthanme.”
Let’s call this one a draw. And for those curious about the cheesesteaks? They were from Dalessandro’s, not the usual spots like Pat’s or Jim’s.
