Victoria Beckham has posted a video of her daughter Harper Seven horse riding during their family holiday in Italy.

The fashion designer, 45, showed the eight year old trotting around an equestrian centre while having a private lesson.

She captioned the video, which was posted on Instagram: “We love u Harper x”.

A separate photograph also saw the youngster, who has previously had horse riding lessons, petting a large grey horse in some stables.

The former pop star’s husband David, 44, also watched his daughter during the lesson, and posted a single photograph of her trotting with the caption: “Harper Seven”.

The activity came as the famous family – including their sons Brooklyn, 20, Romeo, 16, and Cruz, 14 - have been enjoying a string of activities in Italy over the last few weeks.

A series of Instagram posts from the getaway has seen the family cycle, sightsee in Florence and enjoy a luxurious nine course meal in Puglia.

The famous couple, who married in 1999, have showed their bond with their children by posting a series of selfies with them.

In one heartwarming image, which featured Victoria and Harper cuddling, the ex-Spice Girl wrote: 'Special family time on holiday x Night time cuddles with Harper xx Kisses'.

​Victoria and David, who often wore matching outfits in the 90s, also proved that their fashion sense is still in sync decades later as they posed for a picture in co-ordinating beige bottoms and white tops.

"Twinning all summer," the former footballer wrote in his caption, insisting: "I had it on first just to be clear."
