David’s appearance comes just days after he cheerfully rang in the New Year with his loved ones as they lived it up in Miami after jetting off for a festive getaway.
David, who has once again, been snubbed for a knighthood in the New Year’s Honours list – brushed off the spurn as he took to Instagram in the early hours of Wednesday morning to share a selection of sweet family snaps.

David captioned the post: ‘Happy New Year from myself, my wife and my amazing kids… Thank you for unforgettable year and I want to wish everyone a happy and healthy 2025 ❤️ Love David x’.
Victoria also took to social media to share a post, uploading a video dancing with David to Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers’ Islands in the Stream.

Cruz’s older brother Romeo, 25, rang in the new year with his new girlfriend Kim Turnbull, 25, as they enjoyed a luxury meal overlooking the London Eye ahead of the cities amazing fireworks display.
The family’s celebrations came after David was left off the New Year’s Honours list despite his royal family friendships, while his former Three Lions teammate Gareth Southgate was given the top gong.
Just last month, ex-England captain David was spotted rubbing shoulders with King Charles and Queen Camilla for a banquet to mark the state visit of the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.
He was said to be ‘humbled’ by his invitation and, along with Victoria, ‘very happy’ to be there.
David, an avid royalist since he was a schoolboy in Chingford, received his OBE from the late Queen in 2003, and for a time it seemed as though a knighthood might be within his grasp.
While his appointment as an ambassador to HM’s charity the King’s Foundation was deemed an encouraging sign earlier this year, David’s complicated tax affairs have been viewed as a possible barrier.

And in February 2017, there was a slew of leaked emails showing the former footballer had appeared to unleash a barrage of expletives criticising the honours committee that had once again left him off the list for a coveted gong.
There was also an alleged 2013 leaked email, when, bitter not to be knighted, he complained about Katherine Jenkins, fuming ‘Katherine Jenkins OBE for what? Singing at the rugby and going to see the troops. Plus taking coke. F****** joke.’
He was left off the list once again, with former England manager Gareth instead being bestowed with the honour following the Three Lions’ progress to the Euros final in Germany this summer – after also finishing runners-up at Euro 2020.
A source told MailOnline: ‘It’s Gareth’s big hurrah and David is thrilled for him. David knew it wouldn’t be his time and he is fine with that but you never know what is down the line.’
