Victoria Beckham could be the first in her family to earn a damehood, just months after her husband, David, was honoured with a knighthood – in a ceremony that went unacknowledged by Brooklyn
Victoria Beckham has been tipped to follow her husband on the New Year’s honours list. Posh Spice is one of the favourites to be honoured with a damehood at the end of the year.
The King’s New Year honours list is usually released in the final days of December, and several people will be honoured with damehoods and knighthoods. Recent odds have predicted that Victoria, who was previously awarded an OBE, will be among those people, given renewed interest in her and her family following the release of her Netflix documentary and David Beckham’s knighthood.
At the beginning of November, David was awarded his knighthood in a ceremony at Windsor Castle. Victoria, along with his parents, attended the ceremony, as did all of the Beckhams’ children – bar their eldest, Brooklyn.

Brooklyn also snubbed the announcement of David’s knighthood in June and his 50th birthday in May. For much of this year, Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, have been in a feud with his parents and siblings.
However, in the run-up to Christmas, Victoria and David appear to be sending olive branches out to Brooklyn. The former Spice Girl, who would be the first in the group to receive a damehood should she be on the honours list, recently posted a picture from her mother’s house, where decorations dedicated to Brooklyn were out, along with all the other grandchildren.
A source told The Sun that the famous couple were trying to show their son “how missed” he is and were using the decorations to show that Brooklyn “does have a family that loves him”.
Cruz Beckham also appeared to be reaching out to his brother. The singer posted two Instagram stories where he seemed to show a desire to see his brother again. In one, he shared a picture of him, Brooklyn and their father, where he wrote “Love you guys” over the top. He also shared a cryptic post, saying: “Life is too short, at least talk it out.”
But a source told The Mail that while Brooklyn and Nicola are open to mending the rift with Victoria and David, they require a “public apology” from the pair before considering it.
“There is an obvious first step,” the source said. “Which would be a public acknowledgement [by David and Victoria] of what they did, and an apology. It cannot be a performative thing. There is no realistic chance of a reconciliation without that happening first.”
Alongside Victoria, Rory McIlroy has been tipped by AceOdds for a Knighthood. Lionesses Chloe Kelly and Hannah Hampton were also favourites for awards, as were darts stars Luke Littler and Luke Humphries, whose odds are set to climb should they perform well at the World Darts Championship.
