On her account, she shared a video of David crawling as a tot as she wrote: "My world... love you lots xx."
David then reposted this to his own Instagram story along with a handful of other celebratory messages from family and friends.
The star celebrated turning the big 5-0 on Friday.
Before a planned party in Mayfair, London this evening, David and his family enjoyed celebrations across France.
The Beckhams were spotted arriving at Paris-Le Bourget Airport on Friday, after spending the afternoon at a vineyard Bordeaux.
Despite the ex-England footballer being surrounded by most of his immediate family, Victoria and David's eldest son Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, were nowhere to be soon - which has continued to fuel speculation of a feud.
They were later seen emerging from their posh hotel, after splashing the cash at one of their favourite hotel's in the city, La Réserve.
The family were spotted heading out for a special dinner, with David holding what appeared to be a £3,000 bottle of Chateau Petrus 1961.
Today, The Sun told how Brooklyn had opted to forego a swanky party in London to celebrate his father - leaving the family "devastated".
It is understood Brooklyn flew back home to the US earlier today.
Victoria paid tribute to David on Instagram with a montage of photos and a clip of daughter Harper, now 13, as a toddler, warbling 'there's only one David Beckham'-
News of his snub seemingly confirms a devastating feud at the heart of the Beckham clan.
Last night a source said: 'David is heartbroken but putting a brave face on it.
'Tonight is all about celebration and love, and he is swimming in it.
'Brooklyn actually informed his parents a while ago that he and his wife, Nicola, would not be attending but, of course, David and Victoria desperately hoped he would change his mind.

'It's a dagger to the heart that he hasn't attended a single one of David's 50th celebrations - and hurts the whole family including the grandparents and siblings.
'Brooklyn is a really sweet boy and everyone loves him dearly. They just hope things can be patched up soon.
'In the meantime, everyone around David are doing all they can to give him a magical evening to remember.'
What do David Beckham's tattoos mean?
Hands
Starting with the hands, and David Beckham has the word "Love" inked across the top of his left hand, with a swallow on either side.
This is joined by the numbers 723, a combination of the shirts he famously wore for Manchester United and later Real Madrid.
On his little finger, he has the year he was married.
Becks also has a small female-stick figure designed by his daughter Harper.
The devoted husband has "Posh' tattooed on a finger as a nod to wife Victoria Beckham's Spice Girls nickname.
Arms
Becks has two sleeve tattoos on both his arms with the centrepieces paying tribute to his marriage to Victoria.
The most famous of his body art comes in the shape of her name along the inside of his forearm, which is inked in Sanskrit.
Both Posh and Becks have Hebrew tattoos, which they got to celebrate their sixth wedding anniversary.
The matching tatts translate to, "I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine".
Meanwhile, Becks also has a separate rose inking on his left arm to mark the couple's tenth anniversary.
Neck
One of Beckham's most famous tattoos is on his neck, which is a gothic style cross and wings.
It is symbolic of to his religion and acts as a protective guardian of his son Romeo, whose name is tattooed just below the angel wings.
Beckham also has the name of his daughter, Harper, on the side of his neck.
This was later updated to include the words "Pretty Lady", to mark her fourth birthday.
Back
Beckham's back tattoos serve as tribute to his sons.
He has angel wings at the top as a sign of protection for them.
Becks has both his eldest on Brooklyn, and his youngest son Cruz's names inked across his back.
Body
Beckham has a large chest tattoo that is an image of himself as Jesus, with three cherubs representing his sons, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz.
The footy ace also has a vertical tattoo down his left side in Chinese symbols - this translates as 'Death and life have determined appointments".
Paying homage to his father, he has an inking of a ship at full mast - which is identical to the same one his dad has.

Conman flogged fake tickets for Justin Bieber, Calvin Harris and Harry Styles to school pals
The scammer swiped walked free from court after pocketing thousands of pounds CONCERT CON Conman flogged fake tickets for Justin Bieber, Calvin Harris and Harry Styles to school pals Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A TICKET scammer who targeted friends and former schoolmates in a swindle that saw him pocket almost £2,000 has walked free from court. Iain Glen flogged briefs for major events in Scotland including Harry Styles, Calvin Harris and Justin Bieber. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Iain Glen was sentenced for scamming money from five people for non existent concert tickets 4 He took advantage of Calvin Harris fans 4 Justin Bieber tickets were also involved 4 Glen also fleeced Harry Styles fans The scumbag has been convicted of flogging more than £2,000 in fake tickets but scores of buyers have complained in online groups of falling foul of his scams. The 37-year-old also insisted he had VIP tickets for a meet and greet with former Rangers stars. But his victims called in the police after eventually realising they had been duped by Glen. It lead to him appearing in the dock at Glasgow Sheriff Court last week. He pleaded guilty to defrauding five victims a total of £1,665 in a year-long scam from 2022 to January 2023. Glen, of the city's Townhead, could have faced a jail-term but Sheriff Anna Reid ordered him to carry out 120 hours of unpaid work. Emma McShane was his first victim after getting in touch for tickets for ex-One Direction star Styles. She paid £400 and Glen then said he would post the briefs through her letterbox on the day of the concert. He then claimed there had been an unexpected issue. Fiscal Leo McGinn told the court: 'He said he would provide a refund and in the following days he gave various excuses as to why he did not. 'A partial refund was eventually given to Miss McShane.' Calvin Harris hits back with furious TikTok video after being accused of COPYING new single by 90s popstar Glen was also contacted by Nicola Drummond on Instagram about a Calvin Harris gig. Miss Drummond sent Glen £100 to Glen's bank account but the tickets never appeared. It was only after she alerted police that the scammer refunded the £100. The court heard Glen's school friend Michaela Barr bought four tickets for the TRNSMT music festival in Glasgow. She coughed up £290 only for Glen to claim the briefs were provided on a 'first come, first served basis'. Miss Barr was forced to claim the cash back from her bank. Stephanie Delaney - another ex-schoolmate - sent him £130 for Justin Bieber tickets and after repeat messages about a refund he coughed up just £50. The court heard Nicola Cragg - a friend of seven years - was another he swindled. She had contacted him to buy six tickets costing £745 for a 'VIP football event' at Glasgow's Hilton Hotel featuring ex-Rangers stars. Mr McGinn said: 'Miss Cragg became suspicious in August 2022 and asked Glen to confirm the venue of the event. 'Glen said there had been a mix up with the tickets, that part of the event had been cancelled and £300 was owed to her.' The briefs did show up on Miss Cragg's Ticketmaster account - but she never got the rest of her money. Kevin Corr, defending, told the court Glen claimed to have had contacts in the event industry and had been known to legitimately sell tickets in the past. He added: 'He fell into alcohol and substance misuse which was a factor on his life. 'This led to him burying his head in the sand to the ticket arrangements that went on.' Glen has previously featured on the 'Scotland Scammers' Facebook page outing fraudsters. The message claimed 'a broken hearted little girl' had spent her own money hoping to see US singer Olivia Rodrigo while another user claimed their daughter had been tricked into handing over cash for Taylor Swift.

'There's so much going on at the minute – it's the result of pure stress." Addressing fans who had speculated she had used medication to shed the pounds she said: 'I just want to be clear that, as I've said before, I'm not using weight-loss injections." 5 Amy and Billy have postponed their wedding for a second time Credit: Getty

Biggest skincare trends for 2025 Face The Future's Head of Clinic, Kimberley Medd, shared the five skincare trends predicted to take off in 2025. 1. Exosomes Exosomes are the buzzword for 2025, taking advanced skin regeneration to new heights. These micro-messengers signal skin cells to repair damage, boost collagen, and accelerate recovery, and they're a gamechanger for targeting ageing. 2. Streamlined Skincare The age of 12-step routines is fading as consumers shift to more intentional, multi-functional products. Streamlining skincare not only saves time but also reduces the risk of overloading your skin. In 2025, we'll see a rise in hybrid products that combine active ingredients for simplified, effective results. 3. Vegan Collagen Plant-based collagen will dominate the skincare world this year, providing a sustainable, ethical alternative to traditional animal-derived collagen. Expect vegan collagen in everything from moisturisers to serums. 4. The Rise Of AI AI is revolutionising the beauty landscape, making it possible for consumers to get truly personalised skincare solutions. In 2025, we predict a dramatic shift towards AI-powered tools that help people understand their skin on a deeper level. 5. Hair Loss Solutions - Hair loss is an issue that affects more men than we often realise, and it's no longer just something we're talking about behind closed doors. This year, expect to see a continued rise in demand for treatments that not only tackle hair loss but also nurture overall scalp health. Shoppers were eager to find the beauty bag for themselves after seeing Nicky's post on the Facebook group ,Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK. One person wrote: "Brillaint buy, love mine." Another commented: 'My store has sold out." "I was there first thing 8am to get mine on Thursday," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "Got one yesterday... some lovely things, and just in time for holiday." "I got one on Thursday. It's really good. Worth the money and no minimum spend,' claimed a fifth. Someone else added: 'I got this in store. It's great. Definitely worth the money."
