Sir David Beckham, 51, marked his wedding anniversary with wife Victoria Beckham by declaring their family his 'proudest achievement.' The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star shared a series of photos on social media, including shots from their wedding day and his 50th birthday celebrations last year.
Anniversary Messages
In his post, Beckham wrote: '29 years together, 27 years married & you have given me everything I could ever wish for…our proudest achievement will always be our family. I love you & Happy Anniversary @victoriabeckham.' Victoria responded: 'Happy anniversary. I love you so much.' She also shared her own post with a photo of David smiling as she kissed his cheek, captioning it: 'After 27 years of marriage, four amazing children and countless matching outfits, you’re still my *everything*. Happy anniversary!! I love you so much @davidbeckham.'
Family Feud
The public display of affection comes after a reported falling out with their eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, 27. In January, Brooklyn accused his parents of trying to 'control' him and 'ruin his relationship' with his wife, actress Nicola Peltz, 31. He also alleged that his family had 'disrespected' his wife. Despite attempts by the Beckhams to extend olive branches on social media, Brooklyn has reportedly ignored them.
In a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal, Victoria addressed the feud for the first time, stating that she and David 'love our children so much' and have 'always tried to be the best parents.'
Support from Friends
The couple received well-wishes from famous friends, including Gordon Ramsay, who commented: 'Happy Anniversary sending lots of love.' Eva Longoria, godmother to two of their children, wrote: 'Happy anniversary to you guys!!'
Background
The Beckhams began dating in 1997 after meeting at a charity football match, got engaged in 1998, and married in 1999. They have four children: sons Brooklyn (27), Romeo (23), and Cruz (21), and daughter Harper (14).
Meanwhile, Brooklyn and Nicola recently marked their engagement anniversary. Nicola shared a photo from David's birthday celebrations in March, writing: 'I can’t believe we got engaged 6 years ago today… I love you with my whole heart.' David responded: '6 years ago I asked my best friend to marry me x You are my girl, my beautiful wife, and my whole heart.' The couple got engaged in July 2020, about eight months after they reportedly started dating.
