David Beckham has taken to social media to share a rare photo of his older sister Lynne to mark her 49th birthday.
The 45-year-old former footballer posted a throwback photo of his older sibling online, captioning the shot “happy birthday sis” alongside a laughing emoji.
The father-of-four’s relationship with his sister became strained when she married Colin Every in 1999, who Becks reportedly disapproved of.
Although David attended the wedding ceremony and was pictured with his sister outside the church, his wife Victoria Beckham was noticeably missing.
However, it seems the siblings are now on good terms, with David sending Lynne birthday wishes on his Instagram Stories.

Former receptionist Lynne hit the headlines last year after she called police having found a local politician allegedly urinating in her garden.
Mark Durham crossed her front lawn to apparently urinate behind bushes.
However, he was caught on her doorbell’s video camera, which sent an alert to her phone.
Lynne told The Sun: “It was disgusting. I shouted: ‘You weed on my property!’ He said: ‘I apologise.’

“He shouldn’t do that. There are public toilets there.
“As a councillor he must know that. He could have knocked on someone’s door to use theirs or gone to the pub.”
Meanwhile, ex-England football team captain David has registered a trademark protecting his name, with the paperwork explaining he may wish to use a monogrammed DB in hotels and restaurants.

In December last year, he became an ambassador for The Londoner Hotel, which is set to open in Macao, on the south coast of China in 2021.
But it seems David’s keener than ever to start up in the hotel game himself, just like his former Manchester United teammates Gary Neville and Ryan Giggs, who co-own two hotels in the city.
An insider told The Sun: “David is a shrewd businessman and just as he was clever in building brand Beckham with Victoria, he is making sure he protects any future projects.
“He’s got his hands full with his team in Miami but his own hotel – that could happen.
“But David won’t rush into anything, he’ll be making sure any plans to go into the industry are totally watertight before he takes the plunge.”
Becks and Lynne also have another younger sister called Joanne, who shares a child with former Big Brother star Kris Donnelly, her ex-boyfriend.
