Unlike at Reading Festival a day earlier, David and Victoria didn't appear to be in the crowd as he travelled north to entertain another festival crowd.‌But despite his famous family's absence, Cruz, 21, made his Leeds debut in impressive fashion. And as well as playing his own original tracks, the singer treated fans to a rendition of Hey Jude by The Beatles.‌A source told the Mirror: "Cruz definitely knew how to entertain a festival crowd. Today it’s his first time playing Leeds Festival; it seemed as though he was ready for The Grid (main stage); rather than The Canopy.‌"His performance of Optics had the crowd going wild. The audience was packed out of the tent, it was the biggest crowd The Canopy has seen all weekend."They went on: "He might be a nepo-baby and unlike his brother Brooklyn, he’s certainly not a wannabe - Cruz Beckham is a fully fledged musician ready to dominate the industry.”‌A day earlier, as Cruz and his band took to the stage at the Reading half of the weekend event, his proud family were spotted looking on. While fans were out in force to watch The Breakers too, many had their heads turned as David beamed from the sidelines.The former footballer and his Spice Girl wife were joined by children Romeo and Harper as they put on a united front for Cruz and his band, although Brooklyn remained absent amid their bitter feud.Fans watched on as Victoria clapped gleefully at the end of every song. One fan told the Mirror: “Victoria looked so distracted. Got to be sad having everyone but Brooklyn there.”‌They went on: "I can't believe it! I came hoping to see them and they're actually here. It's so nice they've come to support Cruz because they didn't have to."The weekend marked just part of a busy summer time for the up and coming star. Days earlier, Cruz made a surprise appearance at Rock N Roll Circus Norwich as he joined The Kooks on stage at Earlham Park.He had already wowed the crowd earlier in the day with his own band, but made the shock reappearance later in the evening.
