David Beckham is pictured for first time in plaster cast after being hospitalised with 'unbearable' pain... as England legend waves to fans ahead of Inter Miami's Club World Cup clash against PSG
has been pictured for the first time wearing a plaster cast after undergoing surgery, as he waved to fans ahead of Inter Miami's Club World Cup clash against Paris Saint-Germain in Atlanta, Georgia, on Sunday. The 50-year-old was hospitalised last week after being left in 'unbearable' pain and requiring surgery to remove a screw embedded in his wrist from an old injury suffered while playing for England 22 years ago. Beckham, who co-owns Inter Miami, was seen arriving at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium wearing a blue sling with his right hand encased in a plaster cast, but appeared in good spirits as he smiled and greeted supporters before the match. It comes just days after wife Victoria, 51, shared a photo of Beckham in hospital recovering from the operation, writing on Instagram: 'Get well soon daddy' as he smiled despite the discomfort. MailOnline revealed that the former England captain had experienced worsening pain in recent months, with the embedded screw causing severe discomfort before he was forced to undergo surgery last week. Despite his recent hospitalisation, Beckham made the trip to Atlanta to support his team in one of their biggest games since the club's formation, standing pitchside ahead of kick-off and chatting with staff. His appearance comes amid a period of family tensions, with ongoing reports of a rift with eldest son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz, who did not attend Beckham's 50th birthday celebrations last month. Beckham, however, ensured his mother Sandra was celebrated on her 76th birthday last week, posting a warm tribute on Instagram and including Brooklyn in the message despite the ongoing family issues.

Zara McDermott poses with Louis Tomlinson's sister at Glastonbury Festival
Zara McDermott is at her first Glastonbury Festival - but some fans think she's giving off the 'wrong vibe' as one said 'this ain't Coachella' Zara McDermott certainly looks like she's enjoying her first ever Glastonbury. The 28-year-old is at the festival with new boyfriend Louis Tomlinson. The Love Island and Made In Chelsea star turned BBC documentary maker posed for a series of snaps showing her and One Direction's Louis, 33, were there with Louis' influencer sister Lottie, 26, and her fiance Lewis Burton. But snaps posted to her own Instagram account got a bit of backlash from fans who said they were 'the opposite of what Glastonbury is about'. Posing in an Adidas tracksuit and matching trainers, Zara sat on the floor in the snaps that looked more like a sports ad than a candid festival photo. She captioned the post: 'First Glasto.' It led one follower to ask: "Are you sitting in a foot path?" Another wrote: "This is the opposite of what Glastonbury is about. Sorry Zara wrong vibe." Agreeing, a third said: "I came to say the same, she has absolutely no idea, I have actual 2nd hand embarrassment!" as a fourth commented: "This ain't Coachella." In other snaps, it looked like Zara's relationship with Louis - who she started dating earlier this year just weeks after her split from boyfriend of five years Sam Thompson - is definitely hotting up. She's now met his family and posed for pics with his little sister Lottie, suggesting she's already got her seal of approval. But Zara and Louis were careful not to pose for any photos together and the new couple are yet to make their relationship Instagram official. And it's emerged the pair aren't even camping together at Glasto - with glam Zara preferring to stay off site instead while Louis parties with his mates. He's reportedly even put up a tent that's just for booze. A source told the Mirror: "Louis is determined to make it a weekend to remember and has planned everything with military like precision - including making sure enough booze is available. He has his own tent - and one just for the drinks." "Everyone is saying it's a nice break for him and Zara, but it's a great way also for Zara to meet his mates. It will definitely be a boozy one and not a particularly romantic one," the source added. Zara and Louis were first linked in March this year when they were pictured on a date in Suffolk. Since then, they've been seen in Los Angeles together and Zara was recently seen supporting Louis in Costa Rica. But they have gone as far as to slightly appear in each other's social media photos as they shared matching photos from a Stereophonics concert on their Instagram stories. Zara then appeared to 'soft launch' their romance on Instagram when she posted a photo of her breakfast, featuring a view of Louis' tattooed arm in the background of the photo.
