Victoria Beckham was spotted holding hands with Kim Kardashian as the pair chatted after watching Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami debut.
The fashion designer, 49, greeted the reality TV star, 42, in the crowd before they both walked out of Florida’s DRV PNK stadium together.
Victoria attended the Inter Miami game with her co-owner David, 48, who seemed tense as he watched the action unfold on the pitch.
She was also joined by their two youngest children Cruz, 18, and Harper, 12, as the family showed their support for David’s team.
Meanwhile, Kim took her football fanatic son Saint, seven, and his friend to the game after the youngster was given an Inter Miami shirt by David.

After the game, Kim was seen smiling at Victoria and reaching out to help her off the stands.
The pair were then seen chatting before walking off the pitch together after watching Inter Miami rise to a 2-1 win against Cruz Azul.
Victoria looked as elegant as ever in a strappy black dress with side cutouts, which she embellished with dainty drop earrings and a gold watch.
And Kim looked casual in a white crop top, which flashed her toned abs and blue jeans.
Kim also took to her Instagram Stories to document the day out, describing it as the “best day” as she gushed about how much her son Saint enjoyed it.
She shared a video of Saint – which she shares with Kanye West – and his friend excitedly running forward to meet Lionel Messi.
The footballer sweetly stopped to pose for photos with the two youths as he waved to the crowd and left the pitch.
In another video, Saint and his friend – who both wore Messi Inter Miami strips – excitedly jumped up and down and hugged after meeting their football hero.

Kim wrote in a caption, “Best day of their entire lives.”
The Kardashians star also shared a photo of Inter Miami co-owner David smiling as he took the time to stop and talk to Saint.
Earlier this year, David Saint sent a personalized Inter Miami t-shirt with his name on it, which was also signed by the former footballer.
In addition to Saint, Kim shares children North, 10, Chicago, five, and Psalm, four, with her ex-husband Kanye, whom she divorced in January 2021.
During the match, David was very emotional and almost in tears after Messi’s stoppage time winner on the debut of the new signing.
Messi was taken off the bench in the 54th minute of the game to make his first appearance for the MLS team and made one to remember.
The Argentine curled a stunning free-kick into the top left corner in the 94th minute to prevent the game from going to penalties.
The goal marked a Hollywood debut for the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner that even moved co-owner David to the heart.
The England legend was seen with tears in his eyes, emotional about the goal, as his team secured a 2-1 victory against Cruz Azul.
“To be honest, as soon as I saw the free kick given, I thought, this is the way it should end,” Messi later said in Apple’s MLS Season Pass.
‘Especially when you have players like Leo and Sergio [Busquets] on the field – that’s what they produce.
“It’s so exciting tonight for our fans,” he continued. “All those people who have come here to see Leo step onto the field let alone do what he has done. Frankly, Sergio’s performance was incredible.
“But you know it’s a dream come true for everyone in this stadium to see, and for everyone in this country to see Leo step into the MLS and see him perform. I don’t have many words for that.’

David – no stranger to a late free-kick himself – last played professionally in 2013 as he completed a golden career with PSG.
And he found the experience of helplessly watching the Leagues Cup match from the stands difficult for Messi’s winner.
“It’s terrible… watching these games makes you frustrated as an ex-player. As a player you can do something about it if you lose, as an owner you can’t,” he said.
“But tonight it’s about the people. It’s about this. This is what we always saw as our vision, me and Jorge and Jose, and the club.
‘This is what we saw. So this is such a special night for us, for our fan, for everyone in this stadium, for you. It is such a moment for this country. It’s such a moment for this competition. And it’s a very proud moment for us.’
