Lady Victoria Beckham turned heads in a striking black gown as she proudly watched her husband, Sir David Beckham, receive his long-awaited knighthood from King Charles at Windsor Castle.
The fashion designer, 50, cut a poised yet emotional figure during the ceremony, standing beside David’s parents, Ted Beckham and Sandra West. Over a decade after his first nomination, David was officially recognised “for services to sport and charity,” closing one of the most talked-about chapters in British honours history.
Victoria shared her pride on Instagram, writing: “You’ve always been my knight in shining armour, but now it’s official. Sir @davidbeckham! What an honour — I couldn’t be prouder of you.” She praised his dedication to “his country, his work, his passion, and most of all, his family,” adding that his humility and kindness “continue to inspire us every day.”
David, who has served as a UNICEF ambassador for two decades and helped secure the London 2012 Olympics, called the recognition “a truly humbling moment.” He said, “Growing up in East London with parents who were so proud to be British, I never imagined I’d receive such an honour. To captain my country was the greatest privilege of my life.”
The Beckhams, who have reportedly grown close to King Charles through The King’s Foundation, looked the picture of composure during the event. Victoria, ever the symbol of quiet glamour, wore a one-shoulder black gown paired with heels and a clutch — a look that embodied dignity and understated pride.
After being cleared of tax allegations that once derailed his chances of knighthood, David now joins an elite list of British sports icons, with his family by his side. For Victoria, it wasn’t just a royal honour — it was the ultimate validation of a journey they’ve shared since the Spice Girls and Manchester United days.
