    LONDON 2012 OLYMPICS

    Despite not representing Team GB's football team at the Olympic Games 2012 in London, it seems David Beckham had no hard feelings as he and his son, Brooklyn, joined Prince William and tens of thousands of devoted football fans at Wembley Stadium to support Great Britain against the United Arab Emirates.

    GB kicked their way to victory with a final score of 3-1.

    BECKHAM FAMILY ALBUM

    While the action on the pitch had Wills and Becks clapping and cheering, we were pretty distracted with how dapper these gentleman looked from their high-up perches (and how adorable the trio of Becks, Brooks and Wills is).

    Both Prince William and David Beckham were smart in blue sportscoats and button-down shirts (David added a fitted jumper), while 13-year-old Brooklyn looked every bit the stylish teen in his multicoloured check print button-down.

    Who needs sports when there's this kind of view from the sidelines?
