Victoria Beckham spent Tuesday with her husband, David, and their children in Paris, following recent reports of a family disagreement involving their son, Brooklyn.
The 51-year-old fashion designer stepped out of her hotel in Paris looking effortlessly chic in a relaxed blue suit. Her husband, David, carried a large Hermès Haut à Courroies bag, reportedly worth around £10,000.
On Monday, she received the honor of being made a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters at a ceremony. Her husband David, and their sons Romeo and Cruz, along with daughter Harper, were there to support her, presenting a united front.
As expected, Brooklyn, 26, the eldest son, missed the event. This came just a week after he publicly cut off contact with his family, choosing to start a new life in the US with his wealthy wife, Nicola Peltz.
Following a recent event, Victoria was seen in Paris wearing sunglasses and carrying a stylish, red quilted bag. She was also spotted with a Birkin bag.
I spotted David out with Romeo and Kim Turnbull, and he looked really relaxed! He wasn’t dressed up at all – just a comfy grey jumper and a warm hat. It was a nice, casual vibe.
Harper paired a blue fur coat with dark jeans and a £4,000 Chanel bag for the event. Cruz and his girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, also joined the family outing.
Okay, so I noticed David Beckham‘s son, Cruz, carrying a seriously stylish (and pricey!) tote bag. It’s from his mum Victoria’s fashion line, and if you want to snag one for yourself, it’ll set you back around £1,190. Talk about a statement piece!
Monday’s event was just the latest family occasion Brooklyn has missed. He’s also skipped his father’s 50th birthday party, the premiere of his mother’s Netflix series, and the ceremony where his father received his knighthood at Windsor Castle.
Despite recent family issues, the Beckhams seemed focused on celebrating Victoria’s achievement as she received a prestigious award from the French Ministry of Culture.
This award honors the work of talented artists, writers, and cultural leaders. Past winners include well-known names like Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, Jude Law, and Denis Villeneuve.
During her acceptance speech, the Spice Girl lovingly thanked her children, saying they always supported her dreams, even after her son Brooklyn recently spoke negatively about her.
Oh my gosh, you guys, it was incredible! She actually received this huge award, and the French Minister of Culture, Rachida Dati, presented it to her! And the speech Rachida gave… it was just glowing, so full of praise and excitement. I wish I’d been there to see it!
She complimented her style, saying that she gave millions of young women a fresh and inspiring image of who they could be.
You were a true inspiration to so many, showing us all how to be more courageous and live life to the fullest.
Standing at the podium before a crowd of famous faces, with her family watching proudly, Victoria began her speech by thanking the French Ministry of Culture and Minister Rachida Dati. She expressed her deep gratitude for the honor and the kind words she had received.
I’m very proud to be British, but France really understands and appreciates fashion as a true art form, which is rare.
She also expressed gratitude to her business collaborators and team at Victoria Beckham, and to her husband and children, with whom she’s shared 26 years.
She emphasized that this success wasn’t hers alone, but the result of teamwork. From the designers and workshop to the production and communication teams, many people contributed their skills and hard work. She expressed her gratitude to her amazing team for their commitment, imagination, and support.
David looked incredibly proud as he watched, and his son Cruz showed his support by placing a hand on his shoulder. Victoria thanked David for understanding her dedication to the business and for helping her create something they could both be proud of.
‘Thank you to my parents and to my children who are always believing in my vision,’ she continued.
Rachida fastened the medal onto her dress as the crowd erupted in applause and cheers, her happy family clapping enthusiastically from the front.
It was amazing to see so many fashion giants come out to support Victoria! I spotted Anna Wintour, who’s basically a legend at Vogue, and Edward Enninful, the former editor-in-chief of British Vogue. Even Cindy Bruna, a stunning French model, was there – it really showed how much respect she has in the industry.
Helena Christensen, the 57-year-old Danish supermodel, was also seen leaving the event looking beautiful in a silk dress paired with a wool coat by Victoria Beckham.
Victoria shared a heartfelt message on Instagram after the ceremony, expressing her love and gratitude for her family and calling David, the former soccer player, ‘my everything’.
She posted several photos of herself with famous guests and her family, along with a heartfelt message. In it, she expressed her excitement and honor at being named a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French Ministry of Culture.
I’ve always been drawn to French style and how seriously they view fashion – truly considering it an art form.
Being acknowledged and welcomed here is a true honor – a recognition of many years of hard work and commitment. I am deeply grateful to French Minister of Culture, Rachida Dati, for this incredible honor.
I’m incredibly thankful to my business partners for their faith in me and my family, and especially to my husband, David, who was my first investor. I couldn’t ask for more support – you all mean the world to me.
David shared the photos and wrote a message of support for Victoria, saying how proud he is of everything she’s accomplished. He celebrated her being honored by the French Ministry of Culture as a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters, adding that she truly deserves the recognition. He finished with a loving message, saying ‘We love you’.
Romeo simply wrote ‘Proud of you mum’, while Cruz’s girlfriend, Jackie, sent a more detailed message to Victoria, praising her dedication, creativity, strength, and especially her kindness and respect for others. Jackie explained that Victoria inspires everyone around her and that they are thrilled to see her hard work acknowledged, finishing with a loving ‘We love you!!’
This was the Beckham family’s first time being seen together publicly since Brooklyn made some critical comments, and they appeared to be presenting a strong, unified image.
Since the influencer publicly stated he felt controlled by a family prioritizing their public image, and that his relationship with Nicola, 31, has brought him much-needed peace and relief from severe anxiety, they haven’t spoken publicly about the situation.
He claimed Victoria unexpectedly stopped making his bride’s wedding dress right before the wedding, and then took over their first dance, behaving inappropriately while dancing with him in front of all the guests.
Victoria is reportedly hurt and feels betrayed by Brooklyn’s recent, surprising statements and disclosures, especially after she dedicated years to shielding him from damaging rumors.
According to Daily Mail reporter Katie Hind, the Beckhams quickly worked to protect their son Brooklyn when rumors and stories about his personal life – including romantic encounters and concerns about his friends – began to appear in the press.
His parents have often instructed expensive lawyers to protect him against such stories.
Another source says David and Victoria are deeply upset by recent events and would return to Brooklyn immediately if they could.
After Brooklyn shared the story of his mother interrupting his first dance, the wedding DJ, Fat Tony, described exactly what happened on the TV show This Morning.
The 60-year-old described the dance as very uncomfortable and said Nicola left the reception crying.
According to Tony, a friend of the Beckhams, Marc Anthony caused an awkward moment by asking Victoria to dance with her son and telling the boy to put his hands on her hips.
He said: ‘There was no slut-dropping, there was no PVC cat suits, no Spice Girl action!
‘The word ‘inappropriate’, why I said it was as well, it was the timing, this is what happened.’
Tony explained that Marc Anthony was performing when he invited someone from the audience, Brooklyn, to join him on stage.
Brooklyn took the stage, and everyone immediately anticipated Nicola would begin the first dance. Then, Marc unexpectedly asked the most beautiful woman in the room – Victoria – to join him on stage.
He shared that Brooklyn appeared deeply upset that he’d danced his first dance with Victoria instead of his wife, and that Nicola was left in tears and had to leave the room.
Tony continued, explaining that Brooklyn was performing on stage when Marc Anthony instructed the dancers to ‘put your hands on your mother’s hips.’ It was a culturally specific move that created a very uncomfortable moment for everyone present.
I’ve hosted many parties for the Beckhams, and they’re a very close and lively family who really enjoy dancing. What some people might consider inappropriate doesn’t bother Brooklyn at all.
It all comes down to Brooklyn’s perspective. If he felt uncomfortable with something, then it was, for him, uncomfortable.
It’s disappointing that people have focused on this one part of what was said and ignored everything else that happened.
The DJ told the Daily Mail that Brooklyn once had his hands around his mother’s waist, while she had her arms wrapped around his neck.
‘The timing was inappropriate for me. It was meant to be a bride and groom’s moment,’ he told us.
I’m not taking sides, I’m simply clarifying what actually happened with the dance.
There’s also been questioning of Brooklyn’s story that Victoria suddenly cancelled plans to design Nicola’s wedding dress, leaving her scrambling to find a replacement.
Four weeks after their wedding in April 2022, Nicola’s stylist, Leslie Fremar, revealed in a Vogue article that her custom Valentino wedding dress took a full year to create.
Nicola also addressed the disagreement in an interview with Grazia, explaining that after Victoria stated her team couldn’t complete the dress in time, Nicola went directly to Valentino to begin working on the design.
Leslie, a Hollywood stylist known for dressing stars like Demi Moore, Julianne Moore, and Charlize Theron, visited Valentino’s Rome headquarters twice. She worked with creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli and his team to see the design process firsthand.
Nicola had two fittings with US tailors, and the head seamstresses even traveled to Miami to guarantee a perfect fit.
Leslie described the event as the height of high fashion. She was struck by how powerful the design was in its simplicity. Instead of adding elaborate details, they actually removed the embroidery to achieve the desired impact.
I remember when things first started to feel strained between Nicola and Victoria – it all seemed to kick off with the wedding dress! There were whispers going around that Nicola hadn’t even considered wearing one of Victoria’s designs, and that really seemed to be the start of the trouble. It felt like a pretty big snub at the time, and honestly, it just felt awkward for everyone involved.
As a stylist, I’ve seen this happen before! Nicola really shook things up by choosing looks from Valentino, Dior, and Versace instead. It turns out, the buzz about a shift in designers started when she didn’t wear Victoria’s creation – it was a pretty noticeable moment, honestly!
