He's a very busy father-of-four, with both professional and personal commitments taking up the majority of his time.

So it must have been a rare treat for David Beckham to have the opportunity to spend some quality time with his middle son Romeo, as the pair enjoyed a basketball match in Los Angeles together.

The duo sat courtside as they watched the game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Lakers at the Staples Centre.

Clearly enjoying the chance to spend some quality time alone with his father, Romeo, nine, looked thrilled as the pair joked around.

David was seen affectionately ruffling his son's hair, before pulling the little boy in for a cuddle, kissing him on the forehead at the same time.

The pair also indulged in some sweet treats and fizzy drinks as they took in the match.

While David looked cool and casual in his grey marl top and blue jeans, Romeo went for a brighter look in a purple zip-up sweater.

However, both David and Romeo opted to wear one of the slouchy hats the footballer has become famous for.

In a recent interview, however, David said that Romeo is the most fashion-forward of his three sons.

He said: 'Brooklyn will just wear his soccer shirts and T-shirts, but Romeo is the fashion one, so he'll go for skinny jeans and a vintage T-shirt and funny hats.

'One Christmas he asked for a pair of Spats shoes.'

And Victoria added: 'I'd love to say they get their singing talent from me, but they don't. But they have good fashion sense; I like to think that they got that from me.'
