According to Vogue, one of the greatest modern power couples, David Beckham and Victoria, recently celebrated 26 years of their marriage. The legendary footballer David and singer Victoria Beckham tied the knot on July 4, 1999, at Luttrellstown Castle, located near Dublin, Ireland.

David Beckham, who has 88.2 million followers on Instagram, took to Instagram Stories and shared an old picture of himself and Victoria. In the picture, the football legend can be seen with a clean-shaven face, wearing a Chicago Bulls t-shirt and a New York Yankees baseball cap, whereas Victoria can be seen smiling with her arms wrapped around David. The retired soccer star, David, who mostly played as a wide midfielder, captioned the picture on his Instagram Stories:

"26 years today. I love you."

David also shared a carousel post on his Instagram with a bunch of photos (some old and some new ones) and captioned it:

"26 years today you said YES to me. Happy Anniversary and thank you for giving me our beautiful children and building the life that we have together. I love you Lady Beckham."

In the post, David tagged his wife along with all his children. Check out the Instagram carousel post below:


Victoria and David Beckham mark 26 years together

While David Beckham and Victoria were successful in their respective fields as a footballer and a singer, even together as a power couple, they have managed to stand out as they, over the years, built a global brand around their big family.

The famous couple celebrated their 26th wedding anniversary just a week after David came back home from the hospital after undergoing wrist surgery. Victoria took to her Instagram Stories to share an update regarding David's recovery while he was still in the hospital.

Beckham's surgery was related to an injury he sustained back in 2003 during a match between England and South Africa. The retired soccer star broke his wrist during that particular match. Interestingly, among the several high-profile celebrities and personalities who attended the 2025 Wimbledon in London, David was seen there with a bandage wrapped around his wrist.

David and Victoria celebrated their anniversary amid rumors of conflict between them and their son, Brooklyn, and his wife, The Last Airbender actress Nicola Peltz. Brooklyn and Nicola got hitched in Florida in April 2022. According to information shared by a source to People magazine, the conflict between the couple and their son, Brooklyn, began when he and Nicola reportedly did not attend David's 50th birthday party, which took place in London.
