David Beckham and Victoria Beckham slammed over 'dangerous' video of daughter Harper

David Beckham and Victoria have been criticised by fans over a video the mum-of-four posted of their daughter Harper driving a golf buggy while the family are away on holiday

David and Victoria Beckham have been slammed by fans after the mum-of-four posted a video of their daughter Harper driving a golf buggy while the family were away on holiday.

In the short black and white clip, which Victoria Beckham posted to her Instagram account, Harper can be see taking the wheel of a golf buggy whilst sat on her dad David Beckham's lap.

While it can be assumed that David has his feet on the pedals of the vehicle, Harper looks to be in control of the steering, while David has his hands clasped around her waist.

Many of Victoria's followers were quick to share their concern over the 'dangerous' video, and slam the star for letting Harper take control of the golf buggy.

'Is this a good idea?' questioned one follower, while another wrote: 'a little dangerous maybe?'

'Oh god that's such a dangerous behaviour' exclaimed someone else after seeing the video, while someone else went as far as to say: 'anybody else and this would be appalling putting a child at the wheel of a car.'

Another follower of Victoria's Instagram account wrote: 'I take it that's a golf buggy? Are you going to teach her how to recover it if on a cambered surface and it tips over?'

However, while there were many people slamming the stars over their decision to let Harper get behind the wheel of the golf buggy, other fans of the couple were quick to leap to their defence.

'Sad people complain' wrote one fan, 'beautiful family David and Victoria great to see a daughter enjoying time with her daddy.'

'Those that say it's dangerous and such. I'm pretty sure you've done this as a child with a family member' added another fan. 'Millions have done this.'

'It's a golf cart and David has his arms around Harper to make sure she is safe. Everything is fine' wrote someone else with another agreeing: 'David is holding onto Harper and making sure the cart is under control. It's not like it's a real car.'

David and Victoria Beckham are currently on holiday in a luxury Turks and Caicos Islands resort with their four children, Brooklyn, 18, Romeo, 14, Cruz, 12, and six-year-old Harper.
