David Beckham shares Internet on a photo of a kiss with his daughter Harper

David Beckham is under fire for posting a picture showing him kissing his Harper girl on the lips.

The English football star has been the victim of a series of online abuses on the photo, which divides those who say that it's just a snap between a father and his daughter, and who's in trouble. others who say it's just scary.

The picture showed Beckham giving Harper, 7, a kiss while they were skating in front of a Christmas tree.

"Christmas is coming, let's skate," Beckham wrote.

Instagram users were divided on the kiss. "How can you kiss this little girl on her lips," said one of them, while the other added, "This is not correct! and a third said, "Not on the lips, cheeks are OK."

Unsurprisingly, the famously provocative Morgan Piers also responded by saying, "It's a bit weird."

But Beckham got support from his famous fathers, such as actor Ryan Reynolds, who liked the post.

American football star Tom Brady also commented, "Dad and his daughter, so nice!"

Brady, of course, has experience in the field. The star of the New England Patriots was criticized earlier this year when he kissed his 10-year-old son Jack, on the lips of the documentary Tom vs.. Time.

Many other fans also offered their support. "He is his father and she is his daughter," wrote one person. "Why do people have to look too far in things? All is not a sinister motive! It's a little girl visibly comfortable, happy and who likes to have a good time with his father, Innocent and charming. "

"It's a gorgeous picture showing the link that every girl should have with their dad," said another user. "Bravo of being such a good father."

This is not the first time the Beckhams are facing criticism regarding their demonstrations of open affection towards their children.

In 2017, Victoria Beckham was abused online after posting a photo of her and her daughter Harper kissing on the occasion of the fifth birthday of her granddaughter.

"We love you so much, mom kisses," wrote the old Spice Girl.

Critics labeled the photo "strange", "pervy" and "old".

Last year, David Beckham also posted a photo of him hugging Harper on a family vacation to Africa.

Later, speaking of criticism during an appearance on Facebook Live, Beckham is said to be baffled by the negative reaction.

"I kiss all my children on the lips," he said.

"Brooklyn may not be, Brooklyn is 18, so he might find it a bit odd, but I'm very affectionate with the kids."
