Victoria Beckham breaks cover with Harper as Brooklyn's snub plunges new depths
Victoria Beckham has been seen for the first time since her husband was knighted in the King's Birthday Honours. The former Spice Girl singer turned fashion designer, 51, took daughter Harper on a girls' night at the ballet.
Victoria, who is now Lady Beckham, attended the Alice's Adventures in Wonderland ballet in London with her Harper. The mum described their trip as a 'special night' as she and Harper, 13, took photos in the their box at the Royal Ballet & Opera house.
The sweet mother and daughter trip came hours after dad David was made a Sir for his services to sport and charity.
In a post shared on Saturday on Instagram, Lady Beckham said: '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. Your dedication to the things that matter most — your country, your work, your passion, and most of all, your family — has never wavered. The way you've touched so many lives over the years with kindness and humility speaks volumes about the man you are and continues to inspire us everyday.
'But above all else, I'm so, so proud to call you mine. I love you so much xxxx.'
The football star, who was formerly appointed an officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2003, responded to the post by expressing his love for his family, mentioning each of his children and adding 'I love you all'.
David has since been inundated with congratulations from his famous friends and former teammates from Gordon Ramsey to Gary Neville. But one person notably absent from the celebrations has been his eldest son Brooklyn.
Brooklyn is said to be embroiled in a feud with his family after moving to Los Angeles with wife Nicola Peltz. He was also not seen at his dad's 50th birthday celebrations last month.
The eldest of the Beckham boys alarmed fans when he posted that he was 'choosing wife Nicola' and described her as his 'whole world '. It has since been reported that Brooklyn has 'cut all ties' with the Beckhams and only learned of his dad's knighthood when he read about it in the press.
Despite the fallout, David appeared to offer an olive branch to his son when he said he wanted to share the emotional moment with his family.
In a statement to the PA News Agency, Sir David said: 'Growing up in east London with parents and grandparents who were so patriotic and proud to be British I never could have imagined I would receive such a truly humbling honour.
'To have played for and captained my country was the greatest privilege of my career and literally a boyhood dream come true.
'Off the pitch I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to represent Britain around the world and work with incredible organisations that are supporting communities in need and inspiring the next generation.
'I'm so lucky to be able to do the work that I do and I'm grateful to be recognised for work that gives me so much fulfilment.
'It will take a little while for the news to sink in but I'm immensely proud and it's such an emotional moment for me to share with my family.'

Coronation Street fans 'rumble' who had Logan 'killed' after brutal exit
Coronation Street fans think they know what really happened to Logan Radcliffe and who had him 'attacked' amid speculation he's been killed off after his exit aired Logan in Coronation Street was feared dead on Friday night, after he was seemingly attacked before an exit was confirmed. The baddie appeared to have said too much to Carla Connor during a prison visit, and soon a cellmate warned him he'd been a bit too chatty. Logan looked terrified as he pleaded his innocence, and the cell door closed indicating an attack was about to happen. It comes as Logan actor Harry Lowbridge announced his exit from the show, revealing his final scenes had been filmed and aired. With that, fans were convinced this confirmed that Logan was dead after whatever happened in the cell, with someone organising him being silenced after his comments about a mystery person called Tia Wardley. Carla had been desperate for answers on what happened to her partner Lisa Swain's late wife Becky Swain. Lisa was struggling to move forward, not knowing for sure if Becky was in trouble before her death and why she was killed in a hit and run. As Carla visited Logan for answers about Becky, he demanded £10,000 for information he may have. He then let slip a name, Tia Wardley, while no context was given about who they were or how it was linked to Becky. It was enough to land Logan in trouble with a cellmate over a "mutual friend" he'd upset though, with him clearly needing to be silenced. After the episode ended, actor Harry took to Instagram to announce his exit from the show. Confirming his final scenes had now aired, the ones with the random cellmate, he confirmed post-attack he would not be seen again. With that, fans were convinced Logan was now dead. So was Logan killed for saying too much and who would want him silenced? Who was this mutual friend the cellmate knew, and how are they linked to the Becky plot and the mystery Tia? Viewers think there could be a twist and that the person wanting Logan dead could be none other than former show villain Harvey Gaskell. Others think it's DI Costello or even Lisa's therapist Floyd, given they are keen for Lisa to stop looking into what happened to Becky. Lisa herself was also named as a surprise culprit, while Becky and Tia were also tipped by fans to be the "mutual friend". Taking to social media one fan said: "Lisa definitely had Logan killed in prison." Another fan said: "So that mutual friend? Costello? Kit? Tia? Or Becky herself?" A third fan posted: "Best guess at the moment is Costello or Floyd." A further theory read: "Was the killer sent by Costello?" as another asked: "Harvey???" Another fan commented: "It's ether Costello or Kit got Logan attacked inside."
