VB's mixed feelings on Harper turning 13

It seems Spice Girl-turned clothes designer Victoria Beckham is feeling rather emotional as she prepares for her only daughter to enter her teenage years. In fact, the 50-year-old is already dreading the day she and husband David, 48, have an empty nest, a source has told new.

Victoria and David married in 1999 and have four children, Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19, and Harper, who turns 13 in July.

And, ahead of Harper’s birthday, a source has claimed that Victoria is having mixed feelings about watching her daughter grow up. “Not only is she the youngest, but she’s the only girl so there’s a lot of people to protect her. David has always been very protective of her, but it’s Victoria feeling even more emotional about her growing up.”

David showed his own mixed feelings about Harper getting older with a recent Instagram post, which he captioned, “My little girl is growing up. MY boys get ready @brooklyn peltzbeckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham [boxing glove emoji] @victoriabeckham good job mama.”

Fans flooded the comments section with praise for the father-daughter duo. One fan wrote, “You seem to have a beautiful relationship. Good job Dad,” while another commented, “Like father, like daughter. Cute photo. One thing about you and Victoria, you made four absolutely beautiful children.”

David and Victoria are already preparing for the troubles that can come with having a teenager in the home, with the pair planning to enforce some rather strict rules for Harper.
