It’s a low blow when your mum calls you out on social media, but Victoria Beckham couldn’t miss the chance to make a quip at her son Romeo’s latest selfie. 

The 49-year-old business owner shared a snap of her 20-year-old son’s mirror selfie to her Instagram story, to question why he chose to take a photo in the bathroom. 

Romeo who is the spitting image of his iconic dad David Beckham and has followed in his footsteps to become a footballer, cut a casual fit in the photo with a casual grey sweater and faded jeans. 

Yet, the former Spice Girl took the opportunity to comment on the Brentford FC player’s unusual choice of background and make a suggestion to her son for future selfies. 

She wrote alongside the image: ‘Consider your background @romeobeckham [laughing face emoji],’ before adding: ‘(And put the seat down!!).’

Victoria even drew an arrow to the toilet, to emphasise her point about sorting the common bathroom bugbear out.

It comes after Romeo joined his famous parents for a lavish celebration of King Charles III’s coronation earlier in the month. 

The couple threw a star-studded bash with pals such as Guy Ritchie, 54, and his wife Jacqui, 41, and tucked into scones and champagne to toast the new monarch. 

David shared a snap with Victoria and Romeo ahead of the weekend’s festivities and penned: ‘Celebrating with family this amazing weekend.’

The Beckhams got into the spirit by decking their British-themed desserts with union jack flags, and David sported a suit and chinos for the occasion. 

Meanwhile, even with his mother’s teases, Romeo continues to live up to his name of being a sweetheart as he shared a special tribute to his mum on her birthday last month. 

Alongside a picture of himself cuddling up to Victoria, he wrote: ‘Happy birthday to the best mum out there love you so much @victoriabeckham.’
