David Beckham lovingly puts his arm around daughter Harper as his family enjoy lunch in Miami
THE BECKHAM family popped out for a bite to eat at the Setai Hotel in Miami after the famous clan jetted out before NYE for patriarch David’s football commitments.
The entire family flew by private plane on Christmas Day to avoid breaking Boris Johnson's new Covid travel restrictions.
The Sun exclusively revealed David, Victoria and their four children had narrowly dodged the UK’s strict lockdown regulations after testing negative for coronavirus and flying out to the Magic City.
Making the most of their time in the sun, the family were spotted as they left restaurant Ocean Grill at The Setai Hotel on Miami Beach.
David, 45, and Victoria, 46, were joined by sons Romeo, 18, and Cruz, 15, and daughter Harper nine.
The little girl looked adorable in a chic orange and white check dress as she excitedly said something to her dad.
The fashionista in the making finished her look with a simple necklace, while also making sure to stay safe with a face mask.
David, meanwhile, dressed casually for the outing in jeans and white t-shirt, which he teamed with a green baseball cap and face mask.
The superstar also carried a jacket out with him just in case the weather turned cold later on.
Victoria looked equally stylish as she threw on a simple plain white tee, blue jeans and a belt to highlight her narrow waist.
Adding a pop of colour, the former Spice Girl carried a blue Hermés Birkin bag on her shoulder and black sunglasses.
Romeo and Cruz were also in attendance at the eatery, both wearing t-shirts and back to front baseball caps.
Victoria and David's eldest child Brooklyn, 21, was no where to be seen but did fly out with his family to celebrate fiancée Nicola Peltz's 26th birthday.
After testing negative, the family saw in the new year with Nicola and her family.
And in the wake of the country's latest lockdown, Posh and Becks have decided to stay put in the sunshine state - and home school their three youngest kids remotely.
The family may not return to the UK until the end of next month.
Sources close to the Beckhams insist the couple have done nothing wrong as David is on a work trip for his soccer team, Inter Miami.
Last night a family friend said: "David and Victoria had been planning this trip for months.
"David needed to be in Miami in January on Inter Miami duty because it's the start of the MLS pre-season, and he is helping recruit new players.
"He also hadn’t been able to get there since last March due to restrictions so it was an important trip.
"After spending Christmas morning at their Cotwsolds home - which was Tier Two at the time - they all took Covid Tests before safely flying from a local airport via private jet to Florida.
"Once in the US, Brooklyn was reunited with Nicola, and the two families spent some lovely quality time together.
"Unfortunately, and in a scenario beyond their control, since being Stateside, lockdown mk iii came into effect.

"As schools are not reopening as planned this week, the family will now stay in Miami longer with David as the children can do their schooling online from Miami, just as they would from home in U.K.
"Clearly, it's probably a lot nicer in Miami than it is in grizzly, frozen Oxfordshire.
"They're loving spending more time together as a family, even if it wasn't in the circumstances planned."
