After 18 years in the spotlight you’d think Victoria Beckham would be used to appearing on camera, but she was clearly mortified when she and husband David were caught on “Kiss Cam” at a basketball game yesterday.
David and Victoria were watching the LA Lakers play the Denver Nuggets at Los Angeles’ Staples Center when they were targeted by the “Kiss Cam”, a video camera that broadcasts pictures of couples onto a big screen, encouraging them to kiss.
Though clearly embarrassed, David and Victoria gave in to the cheering crowd and enjoyed a short but passionate kiss.
David and Victoria are big basketball fans, and are often seen at Lakers games with their three sons Brooklyn, 13, Romeo, 10, Cruz, seven.
This time they were child-free, instead accompanied by David’s mother and sister Joanne.
The foursome sat in the front row, and David and Victoria were openly affectionate throughout the game, kissing, cuddling and whispering to each other.
They are believed to have attended the game to celebrate David’s 37th birthday, a milestone that did not escape the attention of basketball organisers.
Shortly after the couple was targeted by the Kiss Cam, a message wishing David a happy birthday flashed up on the screens around the stadium.
David and Victoria also have a daughter, eight-month-old Harper Seven.
