David Beckham left fans giggling after he was spotted standing on his tiptoes in his family's Christmas photo.

The footie star, 46, and his wife Victoria Beckham, 47, took to their Instagram pages to share a sweet snap of the entire family looking suave for the festive season.

Cruz, 16, stood on the furthest left next to his brother Brooklyn, 22, and his 10-year-old sister Harper Seven. Victoria and David stood in the middle.

Meanwhile, 19-year-old Romeo stood on the right of the photo next to his father.

What started off as a casual Christmas photo became a source of entertainment for fans when they noticed David standing on his tiptoes as he posed for the camera.

Many fans assumed he wanted to match his son being taller than him.

"Does anyone else notice that @davidbeckham has to go on his tippy toes to match the height of his boys?" one user questioned.

But how tall is David Beckham? According to multiple sources online, the former Manchester United star is 5ft 11in (1.80m).

While in his 2004 book, My Side, his height is listed as 5ft 11, in another book, Soccer Skills, his height was listed as 5ft 9in.

The middle of the Beckham boys, 19-year-old Romeo's, has shot up quite considerably in recent years - though his last reported height was also 5ft 11in.

Have no fear, David, for Hollywood actor Tom Cruise is around 5ft 7in (1.72m) while superstar singer Prince was only 5ft 2in (1.58m).

But it might not be a great idea to stand next to Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Pointless' Richard Osman, who are 6ft 5in (1.96m) and 6ft 7in (2.04m) respectively.

Meanwhile, Romeo and David previously made jokes about Romeo being taller than dad, so David being on his tiptoes for the fun of it comes as no surprise.

Last year, when Romeo shared a sweet birthday post for his dad, their heights were mentioned.

Along with some sweet pics of the pair together, Romeo wrote: "I love you so so so so much and hope you have the best day."

Poking fun at his dad, he then cheekily added: "Sorry for being officially taller than you now."

Months later, when Romeo turned 18, the jokes continued in yet another post.

David posed for one of the photos with his head bowed down to make him appear even shorter, but the dad-of-four was quick to point out there wasn't much difference in their height.

He joked in the caption: "Me just trying to prove I'm still taller. I mean it's pretty damn close come on."

What's David going to do when Cruz starts catching up to his height?
