    And now we finally know why Instagram exists.

    The reason why we need it in our lives.

    The reason why we have filters to make everything look that little bit more perfect.

    Even though every picture he's posted so far is perfection itself.

    We get to see him with his family.

    With Victoria.

    And all the little insights into their lives.

    That we wouldn't normally get to see.

    Now we get gems like this.

    And this.

    And whatever the hell this is.

    David Beckham being on Instagram means we get perfect flashback videos and pictures like so.

    And Harper making Dad look pretty 😍

    This is why it's okay to Instagram your food.

    And your pets.

    It's just the gift that keeps on giving.
