Victoria shares emotional post as Brooklyn goes to college

Even celeb mums aren't immune to a little cry.

We’re feeling very old right now.

It seems like just yesterday that Victoria and David Beckham welcomed their first child Brooklyn but there’s no getting away from the fact that he’s all grown up.

The 18-year-old received his exam results this week and proud mama Victoria couldn’t resist marking the occasion on Instagram.

She shared this photo of herself and Brooklyn last night to congratulate him on his achievements.

In the caption, she wrote; “We are all so proud of you Brooklyn. Amazing A level results and off to college. We love you so much and will miss you.”

Brooklyn will be leaving his family in London next month and heading stateside to attend university in New York City.

He recently told GQ magazine that Victoria’s had a hard time accepting that her eldest is moving away.

“I’m nervous, and my mum’s upset about me leaving,” he admitted.

“But it’s really exciting. I kind of live in the moment. I don’t think people in New York will annoy me, and I feel like when I go there, I’ll meet lifelong friends. Stuff like that.”

Earlier this week, David took the chance to embarrass his son with a photo of the pair of them out for ice cream together.

“Still not too old for a little ice cream with Dad,” he captioned the picture.
