Gary Neville was able to let his hair down as he danced into the early hours during David Beckham's birthday bash.

Golden Balls, 50, pulled out all the stops for his birthday celebrations - as A-list celebs descended on the Core restaurant in Notting Hill on Saturday (May 3). The theme was black-and-white ball as the United icon donned a white blazer and shirt.

And the former full-back was treated to a special three-course meal by chef Clare Smyth at the three Michelin star restaurant, alongside the other guests.

While florists had been seen arriving earlier in the day with white and pink peonies as well as green foliage to decorate the venue ahead of the arrivals.

However, Neville was then snapped looking worse for wear as he snogged his wife Emma Hadfield. Emma was also dressed in white, finishing off her look with some high-heels.

And after the pair embraced, Neville appeared to spot the snapper and acted up to the camera. Neville, who was now out on the street, raised his arms and appeared to dance.

In one snap, the ex-United captain appeared to stumble and he looked to catch his balance.

Neville and Beckham were both part of the Class of 92 at Old Trafford and have been close friends for decades. Neville was even the best man when the Beckham's tied the knot in Ireland in 1999.

Neville paid a heartfelt tribute to his pal on social media. He said: "Happy 50th mate. You’re the best! Stand still today for once and reflect on everything you have achieved and done in these first 50 years of your life.

"We’ve won, lost, laughed and cried but had the most incredible times together. I can still see our mums and dads in the crowd. Everything you’ve done has come through humility, care and hard work. I’m proud of you and more importantly trust you with my life. All my love to you."

Neville was just one household name in attendance as Gordon Ramsay, Guy Ritchie and Tom Cruise were also seen. However, the show was truly stolen by Victoria Beckham.

Victoria, 51, donned a stunning white gown as spectators rained their necks to catch a glimpse of the pop star.

However, the celebrations were overshadowed by the absence of their eldest son Brooklyn - and his wife Nicola Peltz - following rumours of a feud.

It's claimed Brooklyn and Nicola, who has denied a rift with Victoria, were in the UK at the time.

A source told The Sun: "David is heartbroken but putting a brave face on it. Tonight is all about celebration and love, and he is swimming in it.

"Brooklyn actually informed his parents a while ago that he and his wife, Nicola, would not be attending but, of course, David and Victoria desperately hoped he would change his mind."
