Romeo Beckham, son to Victoria and David Beckham, is on Instagram!

The 14-year-old  finally joined his famous parents and brothers  Brooklyn, 18, and Cruz, 12, on the photo-sharing platform (@romeobeckham0707) and has already racked up a whopping 220,000 followers.

Adorably, the young teen’s first post coincided with his eldest brother’s birthday on Saturday, March 4. The 'gram? A photo of Romeo and Brooklyn alongside a sweet message: “Happy birthday to my bro @brooklynbeckham love u lots,” he wrote in the caption. 

Romeo’s social media celebration didn’t end there. He followed up his initial post with a throwback photo of a young Brooklyn cradling him as a baby.

“Brooklyn's birthday today and he has always taken care of me. love u Brooklyn,” he wrote in the caption. Brother of the year, right here.

Romeo also shared a mother-son selfie. Mom's caption to her regram lovingly introduced her boy to the realm of Instagram:

And Victoria wasn't the only one with something to say about Romeo's Insta debut. His little brother, Cruz, wrote a cheeky caption to accompany his own photo of the youngest Beckham brothers: "My brother is asking me to give him a shout out as I have more followers [than] he does." Oh, the brotherly shade! 

So far, Romeo's insta game is strong. We're excited to see what he posts next!

Beyond the Beckham clan, we're waiting with bated breath to see who will be next celebrity to join the social media community.

Garner went Instagram official last week with a clever video announcement—but the real reason for her emergence on the social media scene had little to do with likes. The actress and mother of three’s first official photo was a call to action. “The devastation in #Texas continues to grow and my friends @savethechildren are hard at work helping keep kids affected by #hurricaneharvey safe. You can help us reach families in need by texting HURRICANE to 20222 to donate $25 to the efforts. Thank you for the support!” Garner captioned an image of herself.
