Victoria has been given many titles during her career in showbiz from Posh Spice to VB, and now, she can add Lady to her collection of names.

It's a personal choice whether the wife of a Sir uses the title, and it seems the fashion designer is more than happy to use it.

Heading out for dinner with his family post knighthood to celebrate, David shared a picture of him and Victoria on Instagram stories which he captioned: "My Lady @victoriabeckham."

Seemingly confirming that VB will be using the status upgrade immediately.

And while Victoria has yet to refer to herself as a lady, she was quick to congratulate her husband on his incredible achievement.

She wrote: "David, from the moment I met you 28 years ago, you’ve always been so proud to represent your country. Whether on or off the pitch, no one loves England or respects our Royal Family more, so to see you honoured by The King today is something I’ll forever cherish.

"You’ve achieved so much, and yet you’re still the same kind, humble, hardworking man I met nearly 30 years ago, as well as the most amazing husband and father. I’ve never felt prouder than I do today. Sir @davidbeckham, we all love you so much xxx."
