Victoria Beckham was celebrated on Mother’s Day by her husband David with some sweet never-before-seen photos of the mum of-four.
The football icon, 49, uploaded snaps from the family archive, including a black and white shot of daughter Harper as a baby in 2011 resting on Victoria’s chest as she lay on a sofa surrounded by the couple’s sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.

Amanda Holden celebrated her daughters
Amanda Holden, 54, also shared a picture in Instagram to mark the day, as she also poignantly remembered her son Theo, who was stillborn at seven months in February 2011.
‘Happy Mother’s Day. I’m so lucky to have my girls. We never forget our son #Theo. To all of you who have loved and lost or are on the path to having a family… My family send you a big hug xxx,’ she penned alongside a photo of her with her two daughters, Lexi, 19, and 13-year-old Hollie, taken by her record producer husband Chris Hughes.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge also shared a snap of herself hugging her own mum, Judith, smiling together in sunglasses while on a dog walk.
‘My wonderful Mummy,’ she captioned it.
Davina McCall also shared an emotional tribute
TV star Davina McCall also shared an emotional tribute to her step-mother Gaby, who was married to her late father Andrew, alongside a photo of the 57-year-old giving her a fierce cuddle.
‘Happy Mother’s Day to you, Gaby. I was six years old when you became my stepmum. And for the last 51 years you have always been there for me through thick and thin. And when I was younger, there was quite a lot of that! The door was always open to come home, and I’m so, so grateful for that,’ she began.
The former Big Brother host had a strained and chaotic relationship with her own mother Florence while growing up, which resulted in a ‘sort of’ estrangement in Davina’s words and her opting not to attend Florence’s funeral in 2008.
‘You ARE grandma to my kids. They love you to the moon and back. And I don’t know what Michael and I would’ve done without you these last four months,’ she continued, referring to the brain surgery she underwent to remove a benign tumour.

The 37-year-old chart-topper had previously been open about experiencing a devastating miscarriage in 2021 after struggles with fertility as a young woman.
Chanan later posted his own tribute to Jessie, including sweet pictures of her and Sky over the years, where he called watching her become a mother ‘the single most poetic thing I’ve ever witnessed in real life’.

‘Happy Mother’s Day to my greatest supporter, and thanks for all my birthday messages, even the rude ones. In fact, especially those,’ he added.
