Victoria is seen with her hand gently against his face in another, as the couple looked into each other’s eyes. Whilst one photo shows them kissing. The couple are said to have been seen laughing and joking at the restaurant too.

David is seen wearing a beige shirt with a white t-shirt underneath at the family’s table at the restaurant. His wife Victoria, who was sat beside him for the meal with their kids, is seen wearing a black outfit in the photo published today.

It’s been reported that actor Richard E. Grant came to speak to the family during the meal. He worked alongside Victoria on the film Spice World (1997), in which he played Clifford, who was the fictional manager of the Spice Girls.

Although joined by their three youngest kids on the trip, David and Victoria’s eldest child Brooklyn Beckham, 26, is thought to have been absent from the holiday. It comes amid ongoing rumours of tension between him and his parents.

Brooklyn’s family were noticeably absent from photos of his vow renewal to his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, whom he married in 2022, earlier this month. His parents and siblings were seemingly not been involved in the special occasion.

Nicola’s father Nelson Peltz, 83, appeared to officiate the ceremony, whilst other guests included her mother Claudia Peltz, 70. Amid rumours of a rift with the Beckhams, it’s been claimed that Brooklyn has grown “so close” to his in-laws.

Last week, it was reported that Brooklyn paid tribute to his wife’s family in a speech at their vow renewal. A source told the Mirror that he “spoke from the heart” in his speech and suggested that his in-laws have “really stuck by his side”.

They said: “He spoke from the heart – and at the centre of his heart is Nicola who he loves very dearly, but also the Peltz family who have really stuck by his side. He wanted to recognise them all, and was determined to do them all justice.”

EXCLUSIVE: Sven Snr will visit a statue of his son Sven-Göran Eriksson, the former England football manager, every day ahead of the anniversary of his death on Tuesday

In the tiny Swedish town of Torsby sits a bronze statue of a giant of England football. One frequent visitor to the bench where the figure of Sven-Göran Eriksson rests is his beloved 96-year-old father, Sven Snr.

In life, Sven-Göran chatted to his dad every day on the phone. Now Sven Snr, using a walker, paces a few hundred metres to a place nicknamed Svennis Torg to sit with the statue and reminisce.

Tuesday will be especially hard for Sven Snr as it is the first anniversary of the former England boss’s death from pancreatic cancer, aged 76. In the past 12 months, Sven’s family have been trying to cope with the huge gap he has left behind, none more so than his dad.

The frail former bus conductor, who suffered the nightmare of burying his own son, said: “It’s been almost a year and I feel it every day. I’ll never forget him”. I even dream about him at night. It’s very difficult for me but there is nothing I can do about it. “

Sven, who took England to two World Cups and a Euros, considered his dad a mentor and hugely influential. He said he instilled the values of hard work, integrity and respect in him.

His father says:” What do I miss most? Everything. We used to talk every day on the phone. “

Torsby, where Sven grew up and lived his final years, chose to honour” their son “by enlisting Swedish sculptor Hanna Beling to create a statue of him.

She travelled from Stockholm in the final months of his life to discuss her plans and take measurements of his nose and his ears.

Sven loved the idea of a memorial and even donated a suit and shoes which could be cast in the model. Now, just like he was during football matches, he is sitting on a bench with his hand in the air as if he is signalling to a player.

Sven’s mother Ulla died in 2011 and his partner Yaniseth Alcides has returned to her native Panama. But Sven Snr is not alone, as his grown-up grandchildren Lina and Johan still visit.

And his son’s friend from childhood, Bengt Berg, a poet and writer, checks in on him. Naturally, their chats often end with stories about Sven. Bengt worked with him on his best-selling biography, En Underbar Resa, which was published shortly after his death.

It has now been translated into English, called A Beautiful Game. The book did avoid the controversies that followed Sven. Most notably, his love of women and his high-profile romance with Italian lawyer Nancy Dell’Olio, and flings with TV star Ulrika Jonsson and FA secretary Faria Alam.

Today, when asked about how he felt seeing his son’s love life splattered all over the media, Sven Snr just laughs. He says:” Yes, he liked women but he was a grown man, so I didn’t stick my nose into his business. “

Bengt jokes:” Svennis not only loved football but also women. However, he wasn’t actually particularly interested in women’s football. “

Both had trouble pinning down their happiest memory of Sven, who managed teams all over the world. Sven Snr says: “Ulla and I visited him in Portugal, Italy and England. There are many memories, including from childhood.”

Bengt says:” One of my fondest memories was a steamboat trip on the Lake Fryken – the lake he would live by in the last years of his life. We got together with some childhood friends and it was an indescribably beautiful Scandinavian summer evening. “

Since Sven’s funeral, attended by the likes of former England captain David Beckham and ex-England manager Roy Hodgson, the Erikssons have had to cope with some unwelcome surprises. They found he died £8million in debt and the 13-room family mansion was put up for sale for £1.8m – but the price had to be lowered because there was no interest.

His partner and two children tried to raise funds by auctioning some of Sven’s ­treasured possessions, such as trophies and even suits.

But despite the dramas, they are still grieving over the fact that pancreatic cancer robbed them of a partner and a father. His dad says:” He wanted to do so much and then the damn disease came and put an end to it all. “

Bengt says:” Until the illness took hold, Svennis still wanted to view each new day as an opportunity and he had the ability to see the beauty in life. “

On Tuesday, many who knew and loved him will light a candle in his memory in church or their homes. Bengt says:” Just over a year ago we were celebrating midsummer at Svennis ‘ house.

He adds: “It feels both a long time ago but also like it was yesterday”.

An insider recently claimed Katie Price ‘ must be so envious ‘ of doctor Emily Andre having ‘ such a close relationship ‘ with her teenage daughter Princess

Katie Price has been in the middle of a feud with her ex-husbands Peter Andre and Alex Reid, with the star recently asking Peter to sit down with her to smooth things out. Katie and Peter haven’t spoken since their divorce following the breakdown of their marriage in 2009.

Hours after Katie asked for peace talks, Peter angrily shared his side of the story: “For 16 years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. That ends today.

” The latest comments about my children’s welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight. For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018. “

He added:” In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement. I have never made this public before, out of respect for my children. “

Not long after, Alex claimed he was” spearheading a campaign to expose the truth “as he leaked footage of Katie waving a wad of cash while bankrupt.

One part of the clip saw Katie brand Peter’s second wife, Doctor Emily, and their two children “irrelevant”. Katie and Emily had a strained relationship over the years, with the former glamour model previously branding Emily a ‘disgusting person’.

In 2022, she shared a NHS magazine cover featuring Emily and said in a quickly deleted post: “My mouth has been shut for so long but I’ve had enough of people selling stories on me and particularly this so called woman @dr_emily_official.

“Always said I don’t want to be famous yet doesn’t do too bad to stay away from media and TV and now trying to make a career out of it. So cringe she has used my children to make money in photo shoots yet covers her own children’s faces up”!.

Katie, who was writing one year on from her drug-drive crash, then accused the doctor of “being jealous” of the relationship she has with her eldest daughter. “She claims to be a doctor who clearly doesn’t have a clue about mental health.

” Oh and stopped my daughter from visiting me at The Priory when she wanted to see her mum. She is so jealous of my relationship I have with Princess and puts me down. Emily you are not and never will be my kids ‘ parent so mind your own business, your so two faced and definitely not the person you portray to the public. I think your a disgusting person so stop trying to interfere in my life. “

Meanwhile, Katie recently claimed she wasn’t allowed to be part of Princess’s new docuseries, while Emily is seen in multiple scenes giving advice to the teen. Katie also said she was not invited to Princess’ 18th birthday – which was filmed for her new reality show.

And now, an insider claimed Katie” must be so envious “of the doctor having” such a close relationship “with Princess.

” Emily has always kept a dignified silence, and that is never going to change, “they added to MailOnline”. Her main priority is Pete and the children. She will always put them first. It’s awful what has happened over the last week or so. It should have been a time that the entire family celebrated Princess, the whole situation is devastating. “

The Mirror have reached out to Emily and Katie’s reps for comment.

In the video shared by Alex, Katie asked her daughter whether Pete frequently asks about her two bankruptcies, despite her having huge amounts of cash on her. Katie is sitting in front of a Christmas tree with Princess in the clip, which is believed to have been filmed in late 2020. Peter was even said to be ‘ shocked and disgusted ‘ by the comments.

A source recently hit out, saying that Katie had hit a “new low” by targeting Emily and the children. Speaking to The Sun, they said: “Of course, the focus has been on the fact Katie is counting cash while claiming to be bankrupt, but Pete has been left horrified by what she said about his family in front of Princess.

“She would only have been about 13 then, and her mum was talking like that about her own brother and sisters. It’s disgusting. Emily is stunned that anyone could speak about children like that. It’s a new low”.
