First, Harry and Meghan, and then the King. David Beckham and Victoria Beckham have become royal fixtures recently, with their close circle further scaling down to include mostly the most renowned nobles in the monarch’s good graces. Over the years, the two have received invitations to royal events, attending the respective weddings of royal brothers Prince William and Prince Harry. They even became a neighbor to Harry and Meghan during the Sussex’s brief stay in the UK post-royal wedding.
Although both couples have reportedly fallen out, the Beckham’s once neighborly friendship with the Sussex royals had its perks. For one, the duo have remained close with Prince William and most of the royal circle. More recently, David Beckham seem to have made his way into King Charles’ list of favorite people, bonding over their shared interests. The former athlete even scored himself the coveted position as an ambassador for The King’s Foundation.
Her husband’s rise in the royal camp has left Victoria extremely pleased. A source recently weighed in on the Beckham’s ever-climbing social status and how the couple feel about it all. The source explained how the Beckhams’ documentary saw massive success, and became more popular than Harry and Meghan’s Netflix documentary.
The turn of events helped the duo “win over a lot of people.” But Victoria is not content with their level of success just yet, and hopes to climb further up the aristocratic ladder. Per the source, Victoria Beckham hopes David’s impressive ties with the senior royals would offer them the leap they need. The source shared,
“Now that David is ‘in’ with King Charles – plus the fact they are on good terms with Kate and William – it puts all the rumors about her allegedly leaking stories to the press behind her. It focuses on her and David’s relationship with the royal family in a positive way.”
Digging further into Victoria Beckham’s purported royal scheme, the source claimed the former Spice Girl sees her husband’s new position as “his way to get a knighthood.” With the former athlete as Sir David Beckham, and the fashion designer as Lady Beckham, the duo would no doubt become a formidable pair to contend with in society. But at what price?
