And the whole family were there to help her celebrate
Victoria Beckham received an OBE for her services to the fashion industry yesterday, honoured by Prince William at an awards ceremony in Buckingham Palace.
The Spice Girl turned iconic fashion designer was in good company, receiving her award alongside Academy Award winning actor Mark Rylance who was given a knighthood and Olympic heptathlete Jessica Ennis-Hill who was made a Dame.
‘It was an absolute pleasure to be at Buckingham Palace today,’ Victoria announced. ‘I am proud to be British, honoured and humbled to receive my OBE from the Duke of Cambridge.’
She continued: ‘If you dream big and work hard you can accomplish great things. I am so happy to share this very special occasion with my parents and my husband; without their love and support, none of this would be possible.’
Taking to her Instagram, Victoria posted two snaps of the occasion, captioning the photos: ‘Wonderful day celebrating with my beautiful family x’ and ‘Feeling incredibly proud #OBE’.
David and her children were also on hand to shower Victoria with congratulatory messages.
David took to his Instagram to congratulate his wife, writing: ‘Today was a special day, this young lady was awarded an OBE and as a family we couldn’t be prouder… A hard working woman, mother and wife… congratulations xxxxx’
Although he’s new to Instagram, Romeo Beckham also uploaded a photo about his mum’s achievements to his feed, captioning the post: ‘I want to say how proud I am of my mum today as she received her OBE… She works so hard and really deserves this honour.. We love you mum x.’
