David and Victoria Beckham were reportedly caught up in the recent Indonesian earthquake.

The superstar couple and their children are thought to have landed in the tourist destination on Saturday for a family holiday.

According to reports, the pair were holidaying with children Brooklyn, 19, Romeo, 15, Cruz, 13, and seven-year-old Harper when the earthquake hit.

According to the Sun, the family were just 60 miles from the epicentre of the quake.

A source told the publication: “They certainly felt the earthquake. The children, especially, were a little bit shaken but they are all fine. Their thoughts are obviously with the victims.”

The earthquake measured 7.0 magnitude and affected other stars who were on holiday in the area including Chrissy Teigen and Gary Barlow.

Take That star Barlow told Twitter: “Thank you for your concern – we’re all fine – a bit shaken up.”

Model Teigen, who was in Bali with singer-husband John Legend and their two children, live-tweeted the shaking.

"Oh my God. 15 solid seconds of ‘hooooooly s*** this is happening.

Bali. Trembling. So long," Teigen tweeted to her 10.6 million followers.

Pictures showed tourists packed on a beach waiting to evacuate the Gili Islands, just off Lombok, as it emerged 200 people were seriously injured and thousands of homes were damaged.
