David Beckham and Harper flipped pancakes on Shrove Tuesday – the day after their mansion was broken into.
The defiant footballer and his daughter refused to let the masked burglar get the better of them and enjoyed some sweet treats.
Just the day before an intruder had reportedly stolen thousands of pounds of electrical items and designer goods.
It is believed that David, 46, and Harper were in the Holland Park property at the time of the break in.
The pair were completely unaware of what was going on, and it wasn’t until Cruz, 17, returned home that they realised they’d been burgled.
Cruz stumbled upon the ransacked bedroom and spotted broken glass from the window.
Victoria, 47, and sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz were elsewhere.
According to The Sun, the thief broke through a bedroom window on February 28 and left out the same window.
CCTV footage allegedly showed the burglar climbing over a gate before scaling the front of the £31million mansion.
Sharing the snaps of him and Harper laughing as they flipped pancakes, David said: “Always loved, always celebrated pancake day. Fun flipping with Harper Seven. We miss you Victoria, Brooklyn, Romeo [and] Cruz.”
But despite the cheerful demeanour, The Sun reported that the family were “shaken up” by the raid.
The burglar is believed to have been part of a gang who targeted at least two other houses in the area.
A spokesman for the Met said: “Police were called at 00.37 hours on Tuesday, March 1 to reports of a burglary at a residential address in the W11 area of Kensington.
“The burglary is believed to have taken place between 20.30 and 23.30 on Monday, February 28. A number of items were reported stolen. No arrests have been made. Inquiries continue.”
They added: “Police believe entry was forced to a neighbouring property, and an attempt made to access another. Inquiries are ongoing.”
The family will be heading out to Palm Beach, Florida, where Brooklyn will be getting married to Nicola Peltz on April 9.
There have been rumours that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be some of those attending the star-studded event.
A source told The Sun: “Prince Harry and Meghan are top of the pile as David and Victoria are good friends with them and know their attendance would make the day even more special.
“Their schedules are so hectic that David and Victoria want to get their invitations out as quickly as possible.
“Brooklyn’s godfather, Sir Elton John, is also a good pal of Harry and Meghan’s and Victoria and David hope his presence will also encourage them to take a pew.”
