Media has nicknamed Manchester United footie ace David Beckham and the pouting, mysterious Spice Girl Victoria as Posh and Becks. The first love scene in Posh and Becks' love story unfolded in December 1996 when Victoria was flicking through photos of up-and-coming sports heroes. When their paths first crossed in 1996, there was an immediate chemistry between the two.
When Victoria saw young David, she smiled and announced to her mates that she wouldn't mind asking the handsome footballer for a date sometime. After a month, when David was on tour with his national team, he saw the video for Spice Girls’ 'Say You’ll Be There' on the TV in the hotel room. As soon as he saw sexy looking Victoria Adams dancing in black leather cat suit, he decided that she will be the girl of his life.
Though not a football fanatic, Posh started to watch the football matches with Mel C. It was the possibility of meeting the man of her dream. Within a couple of months, the two stars were hanging out regularly. They started dating by going on low-keyed dates – going to a pub, driving around, dine out, talking and going to the movies. On January 25, 1998, David got down on one knee and proposed Victoria, slipping a 3-carat, marquise-cut sparkler from Boodle and Dunthorpe on her finger.
The most talked-about couple exchanged their vows on 4 July 1999 in a star-studded wedding party. It was regarded as the wedding of the century. David and Victoria have three sons – Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz with the fourth one on the way.
The overwhelming love of David and Victoria for each other and their endearing down to earth family values have captured the hearts of many people. Hence, the couple is considered as one of the most successful celebrity couples.
