Victoria Beckham, the former Spice Girls singer and mother-of-four, has posed provocatively while traveling on a luxurious vacation with her family while her conflict with son Brooklyn rages on.

Victoria Beckham has proved that her love for husband David is stronger than ever as she posed for him while on a luxury holiday in Portofino with their three children.

Taking to Instagram on Saturday, the former Spice Girls singer, 51, posed up a storm in a series of glamourous holiday snaps, and her husband David, 50, was the one behind the camera. The mum-of-four was seen wearing a white robe and a matching white towel on her head as she posed on the family’s luxury holiday yacht.

Victoria gushed about Portofino, her former football star husband, and the getaway, among other things.

Unforgettable PORTOFINO ’97” was the title of the article. where everything began. Such a special location with so many wonderful memories. It seems like no time has passed since I’m back here.

“Thank you @DavidBeckham for capturing it so beautifully. Portofino, you’ll always have a piece of my heart.”

The Beckham’s luxury family getaway comes amid David and Victoria’s family feud with eldest son Brooklyn. Victoria and David have weathered many storms together – and a source told The Mirror that the current family drama is no exception.

As the rumored breakup between their eldest son, Brooklyn, 26, and daughter-in-law, Nicola Peltz, 30, continues to rumble on, Posh and Becks are “closer than ever” according to our source.

The pair were seen in new photos enjoying a lavish Italian yacht trip, with only David spotted sneaking a cheeky grab at his wife’s back.

When things don’t go their way, Victoria and David are very good at coming together. Since their marriage, she has learned how to navigate a lot of challenging situations, and she is well-versed in what David requires, according to the source.

It also functions in both ways. No one has better knowledge of Victoria than David, so David and Victoria are completely on the same page and supporting one another despite their negative relationship. They know they must concentrate on what’s going right and unite as a family, even when Brooklyn is not nearby. “Family has always been really important to them.

David and Victoria enjoyed the views while traveling on a multi-million dollar superyacht and admiring the stunning Amalfi coastline in style. Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, were their three youngest children who were traveling with them.

Following their most recent vow renewal, Brooklyn and Nicola, both from Los Angeles, continued to live their lives there. In a three-day bash at the Peltz family estate in Palm Beach, Florida, in April 2022, the pair, who met in 2017 at the Coachella music festival, wed.

No members of the Beckham clan were present at the ceremony where they renewed their vows last month at another Peltz family estate in Westchester County, near New York, in what some thought was a final blow to Victoria and David.

Nelson Peltz, Nicola’s billionaire father, officiated the ceremony, which was followed by a star-studded butterfly-themed afterparty.

The couple celebrated their engagement with A-listers like actor Adrien Brody and his girlfriend Georgina Chapman, who were notably absent from Brooklyn’s family.

Some Nicola’s followers weren’t happy with the event’s announcement on her social media accounts, and there was plenty of anger among the comments.

Such a shame that you couldn’t find your heart in having Brooklyn’s family there, wrote one person. Another went so far as to claim that it was “rubbing salt in the wound” for the Beckhams and would be “hurtful” at the time.

Our source claims that Victoria and David’s son’s vow renewal has made them realize they “have a lot to celebrate as a couple” despite the fact that Nicola has since flooded her Instagram with more family photos from the day. The comments have now been disabled.

Taylor Swift received a stunning diamond engagement ring from her most devoted admirer this week after years of collecting friendship bracelets from the fans. After dating for two years, Swifties everywhere celebrated Tay-Tay’s touchdown with the Kansas City Chiefs star.

Just weeks after Taylor’s split from Matty Healy, 36, the 35-year-old frontman, she and Travis first started dating.

Their status as America’s new golden couple was made clear when they shared a public kiss following the Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory in February 2024. At the same June performance at Eras Wembley, Travis lifted her into the air.

The song The Alchemy, which features the line “We’ve been on a winning streak,” captured Taylor’s joy. Travis responded, “That’s my lady, how can I keep this a secret?”

With the release of her potent new memoir Best Foot Forward, Shirley Ballas opens up to the Mirror about her stalking nightmare.

After a seven-year stalking campaign, Shirley Ballas admitted: “I will never feel completely safe again.

The Strictly Come Dancing Judge, 64, opened up about her ordeal at hands of Kyle Shaw, 37, who was handed a suspended 20-month prison term, in April.

Talking to the Sunday Mirror about the lasting mental impact, Shirley admits: “I’m looking around and watching all the time…. and life shouldn’t have to be like that. That’s what he’s done to me and my family.”

Shirley first made the revelations in her new memoir Best Foot Forward, including confronting and following her aging mother Audrey in the supermarket.

She claims, “I spent sleepless nights worrying about what he was going to do because I didn’t feel safe in my own home.” Would he open the letterbox to make a bomb? or attempt to ignite the home? I installed smoke detectors everywhere. What else could he have done to frighten the living daylights out of my family after he showed that he was prepared to follow a young woman round the supermarket?

The nightmare began when Shirley joined the Strictly panel as the new Head Judge for the 15th series of the show in 2017, replacing the outgoing Len Goodman. Shaw sent messages to her social media account claiming to be the biological son of her late brother David, who took his own life aged 44, in 2003.

Initial impressions of him and her team were skewed, but the messages grew more graphic and obtrusive.

“He was soon hounding me through every channel possible. Via Facebook Messenger, Twitter and Instagram, he was demanding a DNA test and accusing me of killing David,” she writes.

Just a reminder, my dad is dead because you left him alone, according to one eerie message. He has passed away. You killed him. You killed him, he. You did this, too. Why did you leave my father to pass away?

Shaw was instructed not to contact Shirley again after Shirley called the police. The warning, however, was ineffective.

She writes, “He started bombarding other members of my family, including my elderly mother, and he continued to harass and assault me.” He would go out with my friends and write the worst messages in a language I can’t even remember.

Shirley was forced to take drastic measures including installing CCTV and an extra alarm system at her house. She stopped using public transport altogether. The BBC also gave her additional security in and around the studio and on the Strictly tour. The abuse always started around August when publicity for the latest series of the dance show began.

He had instructed me to look over my shoulder and that he would always be nearby, she says. You ruined my life, I ruined yours and everyone’s lives, he wrote in a message on his social media account that read, “You ruined my life, I ruined yours, everyone’s around you.” He sent me a slew of messages promising to appear at one of the dates on the promotional tour when my debut novel was due out in 2023. Shirley, I’ll be there. I’ll attend the event. I’ll be nearby and waiting for you. What should have been a joyful time of my life, celebrating the publication of a book of my own, turned out to be a truly agonizing experience.

At one point Shaw managed to get hold of her former partner Danny Taylor’s number and told him how he knew where they both lived, and described their recent movements.

She explains that the “final straw” was when he confronted my mother in Liscard after walking her through the supermarket, which was an incredibly terrifying experience for a woman in her eighties. She moved her mother into her London home as a result.

Shirley claimed she had a frustrating experience despite maintaining regular contact with the police.

She writes: “Merseyside Police were helpful but the system makes it very difficult for charges to be brought, which leaves victims trapped. It’s as if you have to come to physical harm before the law steps in to protect you. All I could do was gather the correspondence and keep passing it on to the police.”

More than six years after the initial message, Shaw was detained and later accused of stalking.

Shaw, however, entered a not-guilty plea during the preliminary court hearings.

She writes, “It appeared to me that the case was going to be decided at trial,” and I would have to provide evidence. That made me incredibly anxious at the thought. Additionally, my mother would have required the testimony of witnesses’ friends and family.

However in February 2025, he changed his plea to guilty and was handed a 20-month suspended sentence on April 1. He was also banned from contacting Shirley or any of her family again.

She states, “I had no desire to see the boy go to jail because I was satisfied that justice had been done.” He needs assistance from a very troubled individual, not incarcerated. A damaged person’s life had been hampered by homelessness, drug abuse, and mental illness, according to the psychiatric report. I only hope that he continues to receive the rehabilitation support he needs.

She described how the ordeal had altered her life forever in her witness statement.

She wrote, “He’s taken my peace of mind away from me, and I don’t think I’ll ever fully recover it.” I’ll never again feel secure. But I’m relieved that it’s over and that everyone can move on. I’ve been lifted, but I’m still standing, beaten, and battered once more. Once more, I had the internal resolve to keep marching on no matter what.

Shirley told the Sunday Mirror that she was relieved that the situation had ended, but that she was sad about how it had affected her family, particularly her mother.

She claims that the messages he sent to this young, illiterate woman were difficult to understand.

I’m constantly looking over my shoulder as I don’t believe I’ve ever taken a train since then. I never leave the park after six o’clock. Never do ear plugs in while I’m walking anywhere.
