Posh and Becks did a better than average impression of Tom and Barbara as they took advantage of soaring spring temperatures at their sprawling Cotswolds home on Saturday. 

Indeed, the couple appeared to be living their very own version of BBC sitcom The Good Life while pottering in a garden complete with state-of-the-art cooking appliances, neatly plotted vegetables and a school of unruly ducks. 

David, 50, also found time to watch the FA Cup final – a trophy he won twice with Manchester United – and was no doubt delighted to see the unfancied Crystal Palace beat old rivals Manchester City by a goal to nil. 

The former England captain was later seen tending to his radishes, before worrying about an altogether different type of fowl in form of his seven ducks. 

The couple were enjoying their weekend amid an escalating rift with eldest son Brooklyn and his wife, American actress and billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz, as reported by Katie Hind for the Daily Mail.  

Becks was accompanied by beloved family dogs Olive and Sage during his latest appearance on the Cotswolds estate, with Victoria, 51, later seen cradling one of the pooches as they relaxed in the sun.

Captioning the post, he wrote: ‘My little dog lover.’ 

David and Victoria are said to be ‘heartbroken’ over the family feud, with Brooklyn and Nicola noticeable no-shows at the footballer’s 50th birthday celebrations earlier this month.

Since reports of their rift, Brooklyn has allegedly found a ‘second mum’ in the Peltz clan where he feels he can ‘hide away’ with ‘less pressure’.

According to The Sun, sources have claimed Nicola’s mother Claudia, 70, and billionaire father Nelson, 82, have become a ‘sanctuary’ to him.

‘Claudia is like a second mother to him and, although they are billionaires, Nicola and her brothers had more of a ‘normal’ upbringing because they didn’t have the media intrusion, which Brooklyn has always found so hard’, said the source.

‘He sees them as a kind of sanctuary where he can hide away if he wants to, but that is almost impossible in the Beckham family, they always seem to be on show.

‘There is less pressure on him in a way.’

As Brooklyn’s relationship with his in-laws get stronger, it appears his once un-breakable bond with his parents have become strained.

But David is allegedly ‘desperate to make amends with his son Brooklyn as he fears history is repeating itself’ following his own fall out with his father Ted in 2005.

In the latest evidence of this, David included Brooklyn in a post about Mother’s Day in the U.S. as he dedicated a post to Victoria.

The Mail’s Katie Hind revealed this week that Brooklyn has ditched his old pals in the UK and has followed Nicola’s lead when it comes to mixing in new LA circles.

And Nicola has even found common ground with Meghan Markle, Duchess of SusSєx, after being branded ‘homewrecker’ women who ‘tear apart their husbands’ families’.  

They are said to have had a ‘deep and meaningful’ chat and bonded over criticism of them.

The Duke and Duchess of SusSєx had the couple over for dinner at their mansion in Montecito, California in recent weeks.

Brooklyn and Nicola, who live 90 minutes away in LA, have received ‘unwavering support’ from Harry and Meghan who reportedly feel ’empathetic’ towards them amid the younger couple’s tensions with David and Victoria Beckham.

Yet the couple were not ‘directly invited’ by Meghan and Harry to a VIP soiree at their Montecito mansion, a pro-SusSєx source has since claimed.

The meal was for a larger group of VIPs including TV and media executives.

‘Brooklyn and Nicola were invited prior to David’s numerous global birthday galas, so the timing is pure coincidence,’ an insider told MailOnline.

‘While it was an intimate gathering, there were several additional guests, including VIPs and film executives. Brooklyn and Nicola had a wonderful time and found Harry and Meghan to be particularly kind, caring and generous’.
