The fashion designer tweeted a picture of her and husband David Beckham taken on New Year's Day while on holiday in the Maldives - following the news that he would be retiring from football.
In the black and white photo Victoria, 39, gives the faint outline of a smile as she puts her arm over David who always seems to have a grin on his face.

Victoria has always been a consistent figure in the stands throughout her husband's footballing career which has taken their family from Manchester to Madrid, Los Angeles and back to London while the former England Captain plays on a five-month contract for Paris Saint-Germain.

The midfielder made his announcement on Thursday, telling the world that he would finish off the season with the French team before hanging up his boots for good.
David said: ‘Over the years, when I’ve seen players retire, when you ask them about it, they always say you’ll know when you’re ready and I think I know when I’m ready. I think I’m ready.
'Obviously it’s a difficult decision because I still feel that I can play at the top level and still have done for the last six months.'
The ex-Man United player - whose retirement comes after his former manager Sir Alex Ferguson coached his last game for the Red Devils last weekend - joked that it was the moment when Lionel Messi raced past him during PSG’s Champions League tie against Barcelona back in April. 
Beckham, told his best friend, former teammate and Sky Sports analyst Gary Neville: ‘I probably knew when Messi was running past me in the home game, but I’m privileged to have won the trophies I have won.'
David will play his last game for the Parisian side away to Lorient on Sunday 26 May.
