Trending Now: Victoria Beckham honoured by French, thanks family – Fans React

Fashion designer and Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has thanked her family and first “investor”,  David Beckham, after being honoured by the French Ministry of Culture.

Lady Beckham, 51, known for her eponymous luxury label, was named a Chevaliere de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres – a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters, which recognises significant contributions to the arts and literature.

It comes amid a public family fallout with her eldest son, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, after he shared an explosive statement on his Instagram last week, accusing his parents of controlling narratives in the press and putting “Brand Beckham” first.

In a post shared on Instagram on Monday, Lady Beckham gushed about the honour.

“I’m so honoured to be named a Chevaliere de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Ministry of Culture,” she said.

“I have always deeply admired the French aesthetic and the seriousness with which it treats fashion: as a form of art.

“So to be recognised here and embraced in this way, is a profound privilege – one that reflects decades of commitment and dedication.

“Thank you also to business partners who believed in me, my family, and especially David – my husband, and original investor,” she said.

“I couldn’t be more grateful, you are my everything xx”

The post also included photographs featuring Vogue luminary Anna Wintour, Sir David, daughter Harper, son Cruz and his partner Jackie Apostel as well as son Romeo and his girlfriend Kim Turnball.

The eldest of the Beckham children, Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham, weren’t at the ceremony after announcing he does not want to reconcile with his parents.
