David Beckham 'quizzed by police' as children Cruz and Harper jet-ski on Amalfi Coast

David Beckham was quizzed by police for 45 minutes after his two youngest children jet-skiied on the Amalfi Coast, it has been reported.

The 46 year old is currently on holiday with his family, with children Cruz, 16, and Harper, 10, deciding to head into the sea – but only over-18s are allowed to jet-ski in Italy.

According to The Sun, a police boat pulled up alongside David's yacht, where he was sunbathing, and had a friendly chat with the retired footballer.

A witness told the publication: "The kids are quite young. You are meant to be 18 to jet-ski in Italy.

"Cruz and Harper had just started jet-skiing, and five minutes later the police boat arrived."

They continued: "David was sun-bathing and he immediately left the deck and went downstairs to deal with it.

"Both Cruz and Harper were wearing life-jackets and staying very near the yacht so it is hard to see what the problem was.

"David seemed to call to them to come back to the yacht, and they anchored the jet-ski.

"The questioning by the police went on for about 45 minutes although it all looked quite amicable.

"At one point, they asked for documents which David showed them.

"During the questioning the police recognised David and seemed to chat to him. They even asked him for a selfie.

"Then, at the end, David leant over for a friendly fist-bump and the police sped away.

"The Guardia Finanza usually deal with drug and people smuggling so I am sure they had better things to do," the source joked.

David and wife Victoria Beckham, 45, are currently in Italy with Cruz and Harper and their elder children Brooklyn, 22, and Romeo, 18.

Brooklyn has been joined with his fiancée Nicola Peltz, 26, with it being thought the pair are looking at wedding venues.
