Son Cruz, 19, who has recently launched a music career, belted out a cover of their 1996 hit Mama at Oswald’s in Mayfair, central London.
Victoria, who has a broken foot, was eventually piggybacked by David out of the private members’ club at 2.30am, among the last to leave.
They got into a waiting car with kids Brooklyn, 25, Cruz and Harper, 12.

A source said of the bash, believed to have cost around £250,000: “David told the party how Victoria’s always been a huge inspiration to him.
“He talked of what an amazing role model she is and what an incredible mum she has been. The kids also did speeches — it was very informal but they spoke of how grateful they are for everything she’s done for them.”
Guests enjoyed steak, sea bass and Italian-style sharing platters plus £500 bottles of bubbly before hitting the dancefloor.
Posh, Scary, Sporty, Ginger and Baby Spice pulled off a routine to 1997 hit Stop which Victoria shared online.
