Victoria Beckham's photo of her giving her daughter a birthday kiss has divided the internet.

The photo was first uploaded two days ago to celebrate Harper's fifth birthday, but has since had criticism from some who say that it is inappropriate for a mother to kiss her daughter on the lips, with some going as far as branding them as lesbians.

The photo captioned, 'Happy Birthday baby girl. We all love you so much' has attracted 556,000 likes on Instagram and over 3,700 comments which contain a whole host of opinions.

David Beckham also celebrated his daughter's birthday on Instagram by posting the photo below, which has not received any adverse reaction.
